GSIアウトドア氷河8カップPercolater

I've experienced two other percolating coffee pots which always used to boil over into the flame no matter what. This however is simply brilliant. No overflow, no aluminum and no fuss. I highly recommend.

I hung this over an open fire for 2 months every morning. Then I used it over a propane burner for another 3 months daily. I honestly abused this percolator. Scorched it, dropped it, bent it, left it in the fire accidentally, dropped it a few more times, and bent it some more. This beat up, abused, ugly percolator made delicious coffee every time. It cleans out easily, and though the charred blackened outside is ugly, the stainless steel on the inside is spotless. I really put it to the test and it held up! I needed a rugged heavy duty coffee pot, and this is perfect. I will take this ugly burnt dinged up percolator inside and continue to make coffee with it, remembering the stories it shows, for many more years. A high quality, super durable percolator that performs great, and is now on its way to becoming an heirloom. Thanks

Love this when away camping....it works better on a campfire than it does on my hob at home but I only really need it when away for the morning coffee fix.

Die Kanne ist wirklich mehr als empfehlenswert. Sie funktioniert nach dem System der italienischen Espresso-Kannen: Wasser einfüllen, Kaffeepulver in den Einsatz geben, über's Lagerfeuer hängen und abwarten, denn jetzt wird es wirklich spannend: durch den Glasknopf im Deckel sieht man, wann das Wasser anfängt zu kochen und man kann beobachten, wie das Wasser sich braun färbt und zu Kaffee wird. Besser als fernsehschauen !!! Allein schon wegen dem Beobachten wurde immer wieder Kaffee gekocht :-) und wir werden so eine Kanne wegen der Begeisterung aller auch zu einem Geburtstag verschenken. Der Preis ist gerechtfertigt. Das Material ist wirklich sehr robuster Edelstahl, dem es nichts ausmacht, dass er über dem Feuer schwarz wird. Mit Powercreme ist die Kanne dann auch relativ leicht wieder sauber zu bekommen.
