Question: Is there a minmum amount of water to start the percolator with? I used 12 oz for 4 Tbsp of coffee in the basket and boiled for almost 15mts!! Nothing
Document: If you use the basket you need about twice the amount of coffee as a drip coffee pot--if you like strong coffee as I do. This is how all percolators are designed. My way is  faster and it produces a full smooth bodied flavor that is wonderful--  I dump the coffee directly into the water.
I must have had a really good camping trip last year, so good I lost my old coffee perk from years ago. Thought I'd give this GSI one a shot on a recent camping trip.12 cups is plenty for 2-4 people, I'm sure the first pot will go pretty quick first thing in the AM, as it always does.The construction is good, all stainless, even the basket and draw tube.
I like boiling the water in the pot (without its guts) first, then adding the stem and basket with coffee grounds. At this point, I turn the heat down to the lowest setting possible and gently perk for approximately 15 minutes. Just like all coffee makers, &#34;12 Cup&#34; doesn't mean 12 8-ounce cups. The pot actually only holds at most eight 8-ounce cups of water  to get it just below the level of the basket.
We bought this in an effort to further reduce our daily use of plastic.Pros: No plastic. Good tasting coffee. No moving parts to break, malfunction, catch fire etc.Cons:  It takes almost 30 minutes to make a pot- 15 minutes to get it to perk, then another 12 or so of perking. You have to make at least 6 cups or there won't be enough water left to perk once it starts boiling.
I will start with my taste buds being extremely keen--way above average.Glacier stainless 12-cup percolator with silicone handle. I was so excited to get it. It has a metallic taste. It gives coffee a weird grayish  color that was particularly noticeable going down the sink, and looked weird/different pouring into a cup. I made it weak to test, then strong per my preference. It was hard to get it strong enough.
We bought this percolator for our camping trips and are very satisfied. It is quite sturdy - even the basket, which I understand to be an issue with lesser quality percolators. The handle doesn't get hot and the capacity is good for 2-4 people. Clean up is easy too.
I've had the 9 cup GSI stainless percolator for years and love it. Our water was very hard and was destroying drip coffee makers every 3-4 months so I decided to go old school and try the stainless percolator. I was amazed at how much better the coffee tasted. Percolator coffee is much better due to the way the coffee is brewed and the lack of a paper filter which allows the coffee oils into your cup.
Purchased this as an upgrade to our Coleman 4 cup percolator. We were never happy with the coffee made by that percolator and we needed a large coffee pot for an upcoming Cub Scout camping trip. Purchased this hoping that the Stainless would hold up to rugged use and that it wouldn't flavor the water like our aluminum coffee pot. Happy to say that this purchase was worth every dollar.
It's always nice to know that the purchase you've made is something you'll own for many years to come. There's nothing cheap about this coffee percolator! It's high-grade stainless steel with the sturdiest construction possible. I love the feel of the soft handle, and have used it both on the kitchen stove and my gas camp stove. You won't need a mitt to remove it from heat. Take some time to learn how to make coffee in a stovetop percolator, and experiment both with a filter and without.
Bought a boat with a small galley and I wanted a way to make coffee without using precious battery power. This percolator works great. Making a fine cup of coffee on my butane stove. I liked these features: all stainless steel,Ste plastic used for the sight glass, silicome handle will last forever, water measuring marks.
