Stansport Camper's Percolator

Yes, the aluminum construction is designed to withstand direct heat from a campfire or a camp stove. Just be careful when handling it, as the metal handle will become very hot.

For the best results, use a coarse grind similar to what you would use for a French press. Fine or drip-grind coffee can pass through the basket and result in a gritty cup.

Yes, this is a standard, food-safe aluminum percolator commonly used for outdoor brewing. It is durable and lightweight, though it is not dishwasher safe and should be hand-washed to prevent oxidation.

Once the water reaches a boil, it typically takes about 7 to 10 minutes of percolating to achieve a strong, robust brew. You can adjust the time based on how strong you prefer your coffee.

The handle is designed for the weight of the pot, but it is a simple metal bail handle. Use caution and a heat-resistant glove or pot holder when lifting, as the handle will be hot and the pot will be heavy when full.
