Looking for recommendations on coffee makers. Preferably a drip coffee maker. I've been using a percolator for years and while it usually works fine, it doesn't always brew thoroughly if the water isn't cold enough.

Check out Moccamaster.

Consider using a Chemex. If it's kept away from explosions and impacts with rigid surfaces, it'll keep 'working' until the heat death of the universe. You can even keep using the same filters if they're the right size.

Next bifl thread: Best electric kettle anyone?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

I went with a regular gooseneck kettle and an induction cooktop. The cooktop can be used to boil water for pasta, etc. and the kettle is just a metal vessel with a thermometer on top. If the cooktop breaks, I can still boil water on the gas stove top.
