Campfire Coffee Percolator 5 Cup

G'dat Steven,

At this point in time Campfire just make the one size, which is a 5 cup version. You might have to make a second pot to keep yourself adequately caffeinated!

G'day JJ,

The recommendation is mainly to protect the wooden handle and the glass top. lf you've got some good coal making skills, and are able to keep the heat fairly even without flaring too much you could probably use coals however you do need it to come to the boil and stay at the boil so the coffee percolates through the unit. 

The base may not be completely flat, but it shouldn't wobble around too much, Monita. If you put it on a flat benchtop and it still has a considerable wobble then there may be a problem.

If you are concerned, try and grab some pictures and send them through to use here - https://www.snowys.com.au/warranty, we will look into it for you.

G'day Leanne,

Yes, we currently have these in our Keswick store available to purchase. If you're not in Adelaide then send us an email (service@snowys.com.au) and we can process this as a special order and post it to you.

Update March 2021

Unfortunately replacement glass knobs are no longer available from the supplier, so we're not able to get our hands on replacements.

G'day Susan,

I've just had a look at our display model and the glass knob has a thread that you hand screw in, the model here holds in ok. There is also a small notch cut into the lid, so it appears to be intentional. Maybe have another go and if it doesn't hold in please give send us some photos and we can have a look at trying to problem solve it that way.

G'day Craig,

I've just done the magnet check on the Campfire Coffee Percolator and unfortunately it is not magnetic, so it won't work on your induction cooktop.

G'day Tine,

The Campfire Coffee Percolators are made from 18/8 Stainless Steel. 

G'day Matthew,

Sorry for our confusing answer earlier. The Percolator itself is about 13cm across the bottom. If you include the handle and the spout as well, then it's about 20cm. 

G'day Ross,

I can't seem to track down any instructions for these either sorry. My suggestion would be to seach for 'Campfire Coffee Percolator' on Youtube. There's quite a few videos of people demonstrating very similar units both on an open fire and using a gas stove. If you're still not sure give us a call and we'll see if one of our staff own this particaular model and can talk you through it. 

G'day Jean,

Great question - the Campfire Coffee Percolator holds about 1.25L of water.

G'day Digby, 

I've had a look at the product, and it doesn't mention using filters so you shouldn't need them as far as we know - just the ground coffee. 

G’day Digby,

The Campfire Coffee Perculator isn’t any different (in how it works) to a stove top coffee maker- and you can definitely use it with butane or LPG burner outdoor stoves -  just  not on an open fire because of the handle.
