Things You'll Need:
- Coffee percolator
- Coarsely ground coffee
- Stove top or camp fire
-
Step 1
Determine how many cups of coffee you would like to make.
-
Step 2
Pour this amount into the urn of the percolator.
-
Step 3
Place 1 tbsp. of coarsely ground coffee grounds per 1 cup of water in the basket of the percolator.
-
Step 4
Place this basket into the urn and heat on the stove top. Percolating coffee is also a great choice for suspending over a campfire and heating to a boil.
-
Step 5
Heat the water until it boils. When the water boils, it will push through the coffee grounds and the water will begin to brew. This brewing process takes about 5 to 7 minutes.
-
Step 6
You can gauge how strong the coffee is by viewing the brewing of your coffee through the glass dome of your percolator. The darker it gets, the stronger it gets.
-
Step 7
Remove the basket full of coffee grounds from the urn and pour to enjoy.
