Hi everyone,
I have been looking at some really nice old-style percolators on eBay. These models do not stop perking and need to be switched off when the desired strength is achieved. Does anyone on here have experience with this type of percolator? For instance, how does one know when to switch the unit off? It makes sense that it would depend on how much coffee is being made, let's say 2 cups as opposed to 10 cups, or anywhere in between. One thing I have thought of doing is to brew a pot of coffee in one of the automatic units I have and see how long that takes and adjust the time as necessary.
Thoughts?
