Percolator Hendi 211472
Technical data 01 / 02
This Hendi percolator brews coffee in its vessel for dispensing and uses a filter basket for coarse-ground coffee. The basket retains the grounds while brewed liquid passes through, allowing staff to use coarse grinds directly without adding a paper filter. Its matt black finish keeps reflections subdued on an open service counter.
Where it is used
The 7-litre vessel provides a reserve of coffee for café or buffet service, reducing how often staff need to prepare another batch. The glass water-level indicator lets them check the remaining water without opening the vessel. A non-drip tap helps keep the counter beneath the outlet cleaner between pours; the magnetic drip tray can be removed for cleaning afterwards.
Polypropylene handles keep the lifting points light when staff move the percolator between work positions. If overheating occurs, the reset button provides a control for use afterwards. A warning light alerts staff to overheating or the need for descaling, bringing these conditions to their attention during drink service.
Connection and installation
The 220–240 V supply range suits UK single-phase mains, helping operators assign the percolator to a drinks station with a suitable supply. Its rated power is lower than that of most products in this category, providing a useful comparison of appliance load when planning powered equipment for the station.
Care
The single-wall stainless-steel body resists corrosion in damp conditions and is easy to keep clean, useful properties in a drinks-preparation area where splashes and routine wipe-downs are part of daily work.
How to choose
The overall footprint and height help operators allocate counter space within a drinks station. Its lower weight than most products in this category makes the percolator easier to lift and reposition between work positions.
The adjustable thermostat lets staff select a target temperature for the intended hot-drink service. Tap clearance helps when choosing cups or other vessels for direct filling, so the selected container can be positioned beneath the outlet.
