PL
a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly inside and outside with a clean and dry cloth.
Percolation process and preparation
The Petromax percolators operate according to the percolator principle: Water is heated. The result-
ing pressure presses the water upwards through the tube where it passes through the sieve and drips
onto the coffee powder. Below it once again mixes with the remainder of the water. The more often
this process is repated the more intensive the taste of the coffee becomes. We recommend a brewing
time of 12-15 minutes. The percolator can be used for camping, outdoor and garden activities but also
on the stove at home.
Only use coarsely ground coffee or coarse, loose tea to ensure the efficiency of the percolation process.
Please note the minimum and maximum filling level of your Percolator.
