I've drank swimming pools of coffee, and I'd probably drink tea before perc coffee.
Grandma had one of those
My total perception of coffee changed with a French press. Not snob level, but I like coffee more because of it
I don't care for it. When you run it through a filter you get a lot of the oils out. Pour over is the way to go imo
I've never had French press coffee that wasn't too weak :/
To each their own, but mine sits unused
Hotter water and finer grind helps.
But yeah, I still find moka pot easier, especially if I'm making a single cup
There's a lot of variables for coffee. Are you using quality beans, or folgers? What kind of roast? Is the water the right temperature and the right ratio? Are the beans fully coarsely ground? Have you tried blooming the grounds first?
French presses are fine and all, but I think OP linked a percolator, which works differently: The water goes up through the tube, then over the grounds, and repeats as it heats/cools. The coffee it makes is unique from the press and you can vary how strong it is by how long you let it percolate.
For those uninitiated, that's a coffee perculator.
And it usually makes gritty, overbrewed coffee.
It over extracts and is the perfect way to bastardize coffee. Just terrible and should probably be looked on as self harm.
Seriously, if you’re down to a percolator just put a pinch of grounds in your lip like a dip and roll.
The Technology Connections guy went on like a 40 minute video about coffee percolators, and how they were largely replaced by Mr. Coffee type drip brew machines.
My dad's got that exact style that he uses when camping. I didn't drink coffee, but he says it's great.
It doesn't make the best quality, but it's great to have a kettle around that can brew coffee.
Its bad coffee but when youre camping its god tier. There's something about percolator coffee when out in the woods that hits just right.
I just bring a moka pot and use it on my camp stove. I think it comes out much better.
Espresso machine ftw
Is this Bialetti's redneck cousin or what?
