Percolator Hendi 211588

This 14 L percolator has a filter basket for coarse-ground coffee, supporting batch preparation for repeated service. Its adjustable temperature and operating indicators give staff practical controls for managing the drinks station during service.

Where it is used

The vessel capacity suits a hotel breakfast buffet or canteen serving coffee to successive guests from a prepared batch. The filter basket handles coarse-ground coffee without a paper filter. A glass indicator lets staff check the water level from outside, while the non-drip tap helps limit drops on the counter between pours. The subdued grey-brown finish works neatly on a visible service counter.

The clearance beneath the tap accommodates cups or jugs up to 100 mm high. The magnetic drip tray can be removed to clear spills, and the polypropylene handles provide a grip when staff reposition the appliance.

Connection and installation

The 220–240 V supply rating helps buyers match the percolator to a suitable mains supply. Its 1.75 kW rated power is higher than that of most products in this category; this comparison is useful when assessing rated power alongside other equipment at a drinks station.

Thermostat indicators show operating status, helping staff monitor the appliance as service continues.

Care

The stainless-steel body resists corrosion in a damp kitchen and is easy to keep clean, making it practical for routine drinks-station housekeeping. The magnet-held drip tray detaches for cleaning, allowing staff to clear collected spills away from the appliance.

How to choose

The adjustable temperature lets the operator choose a setting suited to the intended hot-drink service. If the warning light signals overheating or a need for descaling, staff can recognise the condition; the reset button provides a control to use after overheating.

The overall dimensions help plan where the percolator sits on the counter, while its weight makes it easier to lift and reposition when rearranging the station.
