NOTE: We recommend using coffee that has been ground
specifically for use in a percolator-type coffee maker.
Although, coffee marked “For All Coffee Makers” is accept-
able. If using a coffee grinder and whole beans, percolator
coffee should be a coarse grind. A finely ground coffee may
cause the coffee basket to overflow.
How to Clean (cont.)
3. Rinse all parts thoroughly and dry.
Store with cover off.
Stem
NOTE: Make sure the washer at bot-
tom of stem remains loose. If coffee
grounds lodge in this area, remove
them under running water or with a
wooden pick then rinse and dry.
To Heat Water
Use heated water to make instant coffee, hot cocoa, or tea.
1. To heat water, remove cover, basket and stem. Fill
percolator with cold water to desired level as indicated by
numbered servings on inside of percolator or water window.
2. Place basket on stem. Hold top of stem and place stem
and basket into heating unit well.(Using the stem and bas-
ket will speed heating time.) Place spreader on basket.
3. Place lid on percolator until it snaps closed. Plug in
percolator and let go through complete perk cycle. Water
is hot when Ready light glows.
Washer
4. Fill the percolator half-full with hot
water. Add a drop of liquid dishwash-
ing detergent and wash the inside of the percolator. Use a
sponge and clean the inside of the heating unit well. This
part must be properly cleaned to maintain the proper opera-
tion of the percolator. Do not immerse percolator in water.
5. Drain the soapy water then fill the percolator with hot water
to rinse. Pour soapy water through spout to clean the
spout. Repeat with another hot water rinse. Dry.
6. Clean outside of percolator with a damp cloth. Do not use
abrasive scouring pads or cleansers.
How to Clean
To Remove Mineral Deposits and
Build-Up
1. After each use, unplug cord from outlet then remove cord
from the percolator. Let cool before cleaning.
If the percolator is used daily follow these instructions every
other week. Fill the percolator with 6 cups cold water and
6 cups white vinegar. Assemble with stem, basket, spreader,
and lid.
2. Remove lid, basket, spreader, and stem. Wash these in
hot, soapy water. (These parts can also be placed in
dishwasher.) Do not put percolator in dishwasher.
Plug in and let go through the perk cycle. When perking has
stopped let sit another 15 minutes. Unplug and drain the
percolator. Let cool then clean according to “How To Clean.”
