Everyone loves a good cup of coffee, but there are many people that do not know use a coffee percolator. In a world full of drip, pod and instant coffee machines, the coffee percolator seems to have gotten lost.

Instructions
1. Fill the percolator with water to the desired level using the markings on the side wall of the coffee pot.
2. Put the coffee pot basket onto the pump stem, and insert into the percolator. If you want to use a paper filter with your percolator, place it into the basket before adding the coffee grounds.
3. Add one tablespoon coarsely ground coffee per cup into the basket.
4. Place the basket cover on top of the basket, then put the percolator top on making sure that it closes securely.
5. Set the percolator onto the stove and cook over medium heat. The coffee is brewed when you see the desired coffee color in the clear glass knob on the top of the percolator cover.
6. Remove the percolator from the stove and serve the coffee.
