INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing our Stovetop Percolator. To ensure a long and pleasant experience, please read this information before you use your percolator. These instructions are for your general safety, use, and care to avoid personal injury and damage to your percolator.
OVERVIEW
General
- Safety: Keep small children away from the stove while you are cooking. Never allow a child to sit near or under the stove while cooking. Be careful around the stove as heat, steam, and splatter can cause burns.
- Stainless Steel Base: The stainless steel may become discolored, warped, or even melt and even separate from the percolator body if allowed to boil dry.
- Sliding Percolator: Avoid sliding or dragging your percolator over the surface of your stovetop, especially glass top ranges, as scratches may result. We are not responsible for scratched stovetops.
- Microwaves: Never use your percolator in the microwave.
- This percolator is not intended for commercial or restaurant use.
Before First Use
- Before and after each use wash your percolator, including the lid, basket, spreader, and pump tube in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry all parts thoroughly.
Percolator Use:
- Always place the percolator on a correctly sized burner. Do not use a burner larger than the diameter of the base of the percolator.
- Ensure that the percolator is at least half full of clean water before placing it on the stovetop. Avoid over-filling. The maximum water level should be below the spout of the percolator. NEVER ALLOW THE PERCOLATOR TO BOIL DRY. An unattended, empty percolator on a hot burner can get extremely hot, which can cause personal injury and/or property damage.
- Ensure the lid is securely seated on top of the percolator.
- The percolator should only be heated on medium to medium-high heat.
- Use caution when pouring hot water from the percolator. Always use a potholder when removing the percolator from the stovetop as handles may get hot. Always pour water away from your body into your cup or other vessel.
- To avoid hot water splatters, pour water at a low angle into your cup or other vessel. Do not pour water from a high angle. Hot water splatters can cause burns.
- Allow your percolator to cool on a heat-resistant surface. Do not leave your percolator on a hot burner.
- Do not use the percolator if any parts are damaged.
Caring for Your Percolator
- Empty your percolator after each use.
- Let the percolator cool. Remove the coffee basket, spreader, and pump tube carefully as the grounds and remaining coffee may still be hot.
- All parts except the lid knob and pump tube spring are dishwasher safe. However, handwashing is recommended for ideal care.
- An accumulation of coffee oil or stains may occur within the percolator which can eventually impair the taste. To remove, add 1/3 cup automatic dishwashing detergent to the basket and fill with water. Percolate for 5 minutes.
- Do not use harsh abrasives or steel wool to clean your percolator exterior as scratching may result.
- A spotted white film may form on the interior and exterior of the percolator due to hard water. To clean, dip a brush or sponge in vinegar or lemon juice and rub the affected area. Wash, rinse, and dry. Use a stainless steel cleaner and a non-abrasive cloth or sponge to remove discoloration from the surface.
- If mineral deposits form on the inside of your percolator due to hard water, fill the percolator with equal amounts of water and white vinegar. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for ten minutes. Pour out the water and vinegar solution and rinse well. Repeat if necessary.
- The handle and knob can be removed and replaced. The handle is attached by a screw and may loosen over time. If this happens, simply tighten it with a screwdriver to prevent the handle from detaching. The knob and flange cap can also be screwed off for cleaning if desired. The flange cap must be in place and the knob securely tightened before using the percolator.
- NEVER USE A PERCOLATOR WITH A LOOSE HANDLE.
