We Recently we replaced our electric drip coffeemaker with a stovetop percolator. It made sense in that the one pot could replace both the tea kettle and the bulky drip machine and we wouldn’t need shore power in order to make ourselves a pot of coffee. Then we realized that supermarkets no longer carry the coarser ground coffee that we used to use in our electric percolator back forty years ago and using a drip grind was yielding a cup of coffee with an inordinate amount of grounds in it. But today we made a great improvement. We found some wrap around coffee filters at the grocery store. We now can make a fine cup of coffee and clean-up is so much simpler!
