Percolator HENDI 211489

This percolator brews coffee by circulating hot water through coarse-ground beans. The heating element at the base warms the water, which rises through a central tube, showers over the coffee in the filter basket, and returns to the base. This process extracts flavour evenly, delivering a consistent brew for direct serving from the urn.

Fill the urn with cold water to the glass level indicator. Insert the filter basket and add coarse-ground coffee. Adjust the thermostat between 30 °C and 100 °C; the indicator light shows when heating begins. Once the water reaches the set temperature, percolation starts automatically. The non-drip tap dispenses coffee cleanly into cups or jugs. A magnetically attached drip tray collects drips and detaches for easy cleaning. If overheating occurs, the reset button activates, and the warning light alerts the user. The same light also indicates when descaling is needed.

The stainless steel body ensures durability and heat retention. Polypropylene handles stay cool during use. A maximum container height of 100 mm beneath the tap accommodates standard catering jugs.

With a 1.75 kW power rating, the urn operates on a standard circuit. Its 14 litre capacity suits medium to large service. Weighing 3.62 kg, it is easy to reposition. The 357 by 380 mm footprint fits most worktops.

Cleaning involves removing the filter basket and drip tray. The non-drip tap and glass level indicator can be wiped with a damp cloth. The stainless steel body should be washed with mild detergent and dried to avoid marks. The magnet-mounted drip tray detaches for rinsing. Regular descaling, as indicated by the warning light, maintains efficiency.

The percolator is available in a matt black finish and is part of the HENDI professional catering range.
