Coghlan's Camping Coffee Percolator - Aluminum - 9 Cups

Video Transcript for Review of Coghlans Camping Kitchen - Aluminum Coffee Pot with Percolator - CG74UV

Hi everybody. My name is Andy with etrailer.com. Today we're taking a look at Coghlan's aluminum coffee pot with percolator. Now this aluminum coffee pot is going to be a perfect way for enjoying a cup of coffee at your campsite or in your RV, or even in your camper. And one of the essential elements of camping is having the ability to make a good cup of coffee. And this aluminum coffee pot from Coghlan will help you do just that.

Let's take a closer look at it. Now this pot can make up to nine cups of coffee, but you can also use this to make tea and hot chocolate. These- uh, this particular pot has bale handles to allow you the ability to pour your coffee when it is brewed. But be aware that these bale handles will also be warm as the coffee pot is warm. But these handles will- will cool quickly to allow you to pour your cup of coffee.

The percolator stem with the basket does not require paper filters. So that's, what's nice about having a percolator style coffee pot is that you're not going to have to worry about getting rid of the waste of paper filters. The grounds can just be easily disposed of on the ground and we won't have to worry about paper littering up your campsite. So you have your- your stem here, and then you have your basket that you will put your coffee grounds in. And then you also have the top portion of the basket.

And this is going to keep the coffee grounds from getting inside your water. And then you'll just fill up your pot with water. However many cups you are wanting, and then you just put all that in there. And when you put the lid on, you want to make sure that your stem is coming through on the percolator bulb. So you can see the color of the coffee as it is brewing.

Now, again, this is made out of aluminum, so it's going to be very lightweight and it's going to be durable, and you're not going to have to worry about rust or corrosion because it's made out of aluminum. Let's get some measurements here, the overall height of this pot, including the lid with the percolator bulb, we're sitting right about seven and five eighths inches tall. And then if you take the lid off and I'm going to go ahead and take the insides out here, we're sitting right at about six and three quarters inches tall. Now at the base, we're going to be sitting, right- let me line that up there a little bit better. We're gonna be sitting right at about five and one eighth inches across, and that's including kind of the little bit of the overhang here on the side of the pot. And then looking at the top side, including the spout, we're going to be sitting right at about five and a half inches, including that spout. Now, if you're looking for more of a stainless steel option, Coghlan does have a stainless steel coffee pot. And instead of having the bale handles, it does have a handle with a wooden grip. And so that's going to allow you a little bit of a cooler grip when you're ready to pour your coffee. And you can find that on our website, item number C-G-4-4-U-V. Well, that's going to do it for our look today at Coghlan's aluminum coffee pot with percolator. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me..
