Retro brewing setups

Percolator Brewing Tips

Ratio: 1:15 (1 tbsp per 5 oz water)

Brewing: Perk for 7–9 minutes or until bubbling slows
Pro Tip: Remove from heat immediately once brewing is complete to prevent bitterness
✅ Stainless steel or vintage percolators work best for flavor control.

Q: Does it come whole bean?
A: Yes. You can choose coarse-ground or whole bean at checkout.
