Why is not my cup of coffee percolator Wal Mart always perc-12 (usually when I want to brew 10-12 cups).? It seems to work well for small quantities, but no more. I did not hear a popping sound, but when I pour coffee, everything that comes out is water. The grounds are always dry. What to do?
Percolators are the worst things to ever happen to coffee. They brew bitter sludge.
Personally, I use a French press for my day to day and a drip for those times that I have to brew large quantities. Recovery is not much better than PERC, but at least it's a little better.
But anyway ... This is not because the piercing plus valume water as long as it takes to heat it.
You bought a cheap coffee machine shit.
