If your percolator is making weak coffees that mean the water in the percolator is not getting that hot.nnThat means the richness of the coffee is not getting extracted from the beans or ground coffees, and some of the flavors are getting wasted.nnSo, in that case, you should set the right temperature and go up to the maximum temperature reached.nnIf the temperature is not the issue for you, that means the filter basket is clogged or packed too full that it is not brewing long enough.
