Mixpresso Stainless Steel Stovetop Percolator 5–8 Cup (37oz) — Portable, Cool-Touch Handle

The Mixpresso 5–8 Cup Coffee Percolator is a polished #304 stainless steel stovetop pot that brews 2–8 cups (37oz) of robust coffee on campfires, gas burners, or kitchen stovetops.

This retro-style percolator combines a classic brewing method with modern materials: a cool-touch handle, BPA-free knob, removable filter basket and a clear knob for monitoring. Designed to be portable and durable, it suits outdoor adventures and everyday use, delivering full-bodied coffee in roughly 5–10 minutes when used on medium heat.

How much coffee will this percolator make and how do I measure it?

The Mixpresso percolator holds up to 37 ounces, which translates to approximately 2–8 servings depending on cup size; a typical cup here is 4–5 ounces. Fill the pot with cold water to the desired level, then add coffee grounds to the removable basket—use about one tablespoon per 4–5 ounce cup as a starting point.

• Capacity: 37 oz (2–8 cups, each 4–5 oz)
• Measuring tip: one tablespoon grounds per 4–5 oz water
• Adjust strength by adding or subtracting grounds
• Suitable for group servings or solo use

Can I use this on a campfire, and what surfaces are safe?

Yes—the percolator is built for outdoor use and works on camp stoves, gas burners, ceramic cooktops and over controlled campfires. For best results, position over medium heat and avoid direct flames that could overheat the handle or warp the body.

• Outdoor ready: gas stove, camping burner, controlled campfire
• Indoor safe: ceramic cooktops and standard gas ranges
• Avoid direct high flames to protect finish and handle
• Monitor with clear knob to prevent boiling over

What parts are removable and how do I clean them?

The percolator disassembles for easy cleaning: the removable filter basket, pump tube and lid lift out for rinsing. The body is dishwasher-safe while the knob and handle are recommended for hand washing to preserve clarity and longevity.

• Removable filter basket for dumping used grounds
• Pump tube detaches for thorough rinsing
• Dishwasher-safe body; hand wash knob and handle areas
• Polished #304 stainless resists staining and odors

How quickly will it brew and how do I know when coffee is ready?

On medium heat the percolator typically brews in about 5–10 minutes. You’ll notice a bubbling action and the coffee darkening visible through the clear knob—these cues indicate extraction is progressing and you’re close to the desired strength.

• Estimated brew time: 5–10 minutes on medium heat
• Visual cue: bubbling and darkening coffee under the clear knob
• Adjust brew time for lighter or stronger flavors
• Serve promptly to preserve flavor and heat
