Farberware Electric Coffee Percolator, FCP240, Stainless Steel Basket, Automatic Keep Warm, No-Drip Spout, 4 Cup, Black/Silver

Perfect size for 1-2 people, fast brewing, makes a great cup of coffee. I use the paper coffee filter for smoother taste and easy clean up.

Cute little pot makes just enough coffee for me. Quick to perk delicious coffee and keeps it warm. Easy to clean.

This method of brewing coffee has a reputation for being outdated. I've read remarks over the years that percolator coffee produces burnt, bitter coffee. Surely all of the more recently developed methods for a *regular cup of joe* are superior. I didn't get this for coffee (you can make tea in this), but my mom wanted to make coffee the minute she saw it. She said she had a 12-cup of the same back in the day and used it for years. She liked it very much, but got taken with the trend of using a then-newfangled automatic drip coffee maker. After adjusting the coffee bean grinder to coarse and giving this percolator a try, I was stunned at how smooth and hot this coffee turned out! Not only is it piping hot, it stays that way for far longer than any other home brewing method. The percolator automatically stops brewing in a reasonably short time and keeps the coffee warm. You can hear the transition from one function to another. In light of this, it seems the legend of percolator coffee being burnt and bitter might stem from using a stovetop model that's un- or under-attended🤷🏻‍♀️My mom lamented that unlike this unit, older models of Farberware percolators had a little red light to indicate brewing. Would be nice if that feature made a comeback. I also appreciate that I don't need as much coffee grounds to brew tasty coffee; your results may vary. I'm fed up with pod brewers that last 1.5 years before needing replacement. I'm also trying to get away from the plastic that most any drip method has. There's no glass to break here, which is a plus. If this splendid little coffee maker lasts longer than that bulky water pump sitting in my kitchen, what a reclaim of counter space that would be! That is, if you're willing to clean the percolator after it's just cooled down. The main body can't go in the dishwasher (the inner components can). The kettle must be carefully washed by hand to avoid getting the electrics wet. That's a dealbreaker for many. If you don't mind that, and the durability proves to be impressive, this percolator will make you a hot, classic cuppa joe.

This percolator ended my search for great coffee in the comfort of my own home. Makes full bodied, really flavorful HOT coffee in just a few minutes. I make 4 cups for 2 robust mugs. When I'm done with my first, the second is hot and ready. Until one morning last week when my second cup was there for me, but only warm. That's when I started looking for support for my problem. Amazon product support took me to Black & Decker; which referred me to Farberware; Farberware doesn't support electric appliances, so directed me to Spectrum Products. Spectrum's website shows no support for Farberware. Phone support for any of these is not available as a result of damage from Hurricane Melissa. Any suggestions for product support for an appliance under warranty? I love this percolator, but I would be reluctant to replace it.

This really makes the best homemade coffee. Just to help you all out with knowing how much coffee to put in: fill the pot up to the top line and add 5 tablespoons of coffee and it’s perfect every time!! I love this coffeemaker because I don’t make coffee for others, I just made it for myself! Honestly, this IS the perfect size pot for a perfectly brewed cup of coffee that’s done quick and effortlessly👌

I bought this coffee maker to take on vacation to a hours that didn’t have Keurig . I tried it before going and Wow! That was a great cup of coffee. I haven’t used anything else since. It’s easy to clean, keeps the coffee warm, and doesn’t take up much space. I love it.

I've had the coffee pot for almost a year and love it! Works great, makes excellent coffee! No worries as it's all stainless (no plastics to contaminate or filters). Follow directions on using it (make sure to run water over the basket before putting in coffee). I hold my finger over the stem too while adding coffee to keep coffee grounds from going through.

This is a great little coffee pot. Coffee came out amazing and is fast. Keeps coffee warm.
