#PYREX PERCOLATOR FULL#

I bet if you mapped out the percolator households and the French press households, they would perfectly correlate with a map of blue states and red states. And caring about your coffee is one of those markers, you know, of intelligence and sophistication. After all, everyone who knows anything about coffee knows that this is an inferior method. ItвЂ™s weird now I feel like IвЂ™ve been outrageously rebellious buying this percolator. Even the Wikipedia entry sniffs that percolated coffee is out of fashion. The internet thinks IвЂ™m doing it wrong, that I should have gone for the French press. I feel as if I will disco to the subway train. I drank three cups of percolated coffee this morning and feel like I am going to explode with happiness and nerves. Also, a goomba passing in the aisle said, вЂњBest way to make coffeeвЂ¦if you like it good and strong.вЂќ It seemed American, as opposed to the Frenchy-ness of the French press.

Boy Scouts would use it, if they took coffee breaks. It looks like, and sort of is, a piece of camping equipment. 'We went to the discount store yesterday to buy a French press and spotted a stainless steel, stove-top percolator.

After I bought this I was scouring the net and came across this blog post and it gave me a good laugh! So please enjoy this post from 'I Had An Idea This Morning'.

Once a perc is in full 'bloom' I turn down the heat to low and let it perc for 10 min. I actually prefer it! The beauty of this percolator is that the glass lets you see the coffee making process in action, judging how strong/weak of coffee you want. Now the taste may not be ' the best', but it is damn good. However, I find no other method fills the morning air with the smell of rich coffee and it's piping hot. The Percolator is one of the frowned upon way of making coffee. The all glass construction (except the basket bottom and top) is quite a thing of beauty. This Made in USA Pyrex Percolator came in 4 cup, 6 cup, and 9 cup models. This weekend on a early morning trip to the Glen Williams Beaumont Woolen Mills Antique Store, I purchased a Pyrex Coffee Percolator 7756-B.
