Brew rich, robust percolator coffee as fast as a cup a minute in the Presto® Cordless-serve Stainless Steel Coffee Maker. The stainless steel pot with contemporary matte-black exterior brews 4 to 12 cups of piping hot coffee, then keeps it hot automatically. The pot lifts from the power base for cord-free pouring. This timeless percolator process brews a perfect pot of coffee! As the water heats, it rises up through the perk tube and spreads evenly over the grounds. Unlike other methods, the coffee percolates and recirculates multiple times for a more aromatic, intense coffee. You can even monitor the brewing progress through the glass cover. A signal light illuminates when the coffee is ready to serve. With stainless steel construction, including the perk tube and basket, cleanup is a breeze. The power cord wraps in the base for compact storage.
