You guys know that I’m a massive coffee lover. I drink a cup every morning and then a few more during the day depending on how long my day is. I don’t think there’s anything better than having a good cup of coffee from A Good 4 Cup Coffee Maker, first thing in the morning. And I don’t like just any nstant coffee, I like high-quality products that taste amazing. This is why Capresso is my go-to coffee and tea machine company. They always hit the mark with each product they release. My current favorite is their Capresso 12-Cup Perk. This is a coffee maker that percolates your coffee to release deep, rich flavors.
The Capresso Perk is a full-sized, 12-cup coffee maker and is just what every home needs. I dislike the loss of my counter space. I have limited room in my modest kitchen and need to really take advantage of minimalist-like tactics. The Capresso Perk is perfect for smaller kitchens. You can make you coffee in the Perk anywhere in your home and easily store it away in a cupboard or under a counter when not in use. When brewing it needs to stay still, kept on a flat surface, and remained plugged in. It also needs to remain plugged in when you want to keep the machine on and the coffee warm.
My favorite feature of this machine is the clear top, which allows you to see the coffee being peculated! Watching it splash and move around inside the lid is fun and lets you know that its almost time to get your caffeine on! The biggest tip I have for this machine is to wet the coffee grind basket before you put in your ground beans. This will help keep them from falling through the filter and getting into the water/coffee storage area. Another tip, when filling the filter basket with the coffee grinds, place you finger over the perk tube. This will help to stop grinds getting into your water/coffee.
I love how easy this machine is to use. How I don’t have to leave it on my counter all the time. I can bring it to a party or event and make coffee on-to-go with such ease. Now when people want coffee at a party hall we rent I don’t have to make a trip to a donut shop for a box of coffee or pack up a big table top coffee maker.

This looks like a great coffee maker.
July 6, 2016 at 12:20 pmSounds like a great product! Love the look of it 🙂
July 6, 2016 at 1:29 pmWow–this brings back wonderful memories! I learned to drink coffee at my old school Louisiana grandmother’s table—she always used a percolator.
July 6, 2016 at 4:39 pmI like the fact that this brew 12 full size cups of coffee.Great for large families and those that enjoy coffee throughout the day.
July 7, 2016 at 1:22 amI think this sounds like it brews the best coffee!
July 9, 2016 at 12:14 pmThis pot makes a lot of coffee which is perfect for my family
July 9, 2016 at 12:43 pmCoffee is a wonderful thing. I like that this one makes a lot of it and that you can see the hot water turning into glorious coffee!
July 9, 2016 at 2:03 pmI haven’t had a peculator in years so this is so cool. Glad it’s smaller and has a clear top. We love coffee and I’ve never had a espresso.
July 9, 2016 at 2:14 pmthis looks like a great coffee maker
July 9, 2016 at 4:09 pmI would love this coffee maker! Like you mentioned in your review that it takes up a small amount of space, and I can relate to that being a huge plus because I have a small condo sized kitchen!
July 11, 2016 at 12:38 pmThis looks amazingly cool! I have a large family and using this during get togethers would be perfect!
July 11, 2016 at 10:20 pmI also really love how it has a clear top!! I would totally sit there and watch it!
July 12, 2016 at 11:13 amI didn’t know they made perk coffee makers anymore!! How much fun to watch
July 12, 2016 at 12:43 pmI remember getting my parents coffee ready in the morning before I went to school. This was way back in the day! I just loved the smell of coffee brewing, although I was way too young to drink it. I did not start drinking coffee until my late 40’s and now I love it. Percolators are the best for coffee brewing, aside from a coffee press. This on would be fun to watch with the top and hearing it percolate would just be cool! Great review!
July 12, 2016 at 2:54 pmI love this! It looks like it makes great, super fresh coffee!
July 12, 2016 at 11:51 pmI think its awesome that it makes 12 cups, its great for when you have guests over and want everyone to have coffee at the same time!
July 13, 2016 at 1:06 pmLOVE percolated coffee!! Reminds me of camping!! I adore that this is perfect for small kitchens but still makes amazing coffee!!
July 13, 2016 at 6:10 pmI love perked coffee. I used to buy another brand perculator but the engines kept burning out so we switched to drip. I have to remember Capresso next time we need a pot.
July 13, 2016 at 8:41 pmLove the sleek look of this!!
July 14, 2016 at 1:24 pmLove that its easily unplugged and stored after use!!
July 14, 2016 at 5:41 pmI like the design! We could really use one of these! 🙂
July 14, 2016 at 10:25 pmI have never tried percolated coffee so this makes me want to try it out!
July 15, 2016 at 1:26 pmI love that you can see it percolating!! Takes me back 🙂
July 15, 2016 at 6:34 pmI great tip to wet the coffee grind basket before you put in your ground beans. I will have to remember that if i win this!
July 16, 2016 at 11:45 amI love how you can make it on the spot rather than grabbing it from a coffee shop and it not being as fresh!
July 17, 2016 at 2:34 pmA tip I will have to remember if i win this would be when filling the filter basket with the coffee grinds, place you finger over the perk tube. You had mentioned it will help to stop grinds getting into your water/coffee, which obviously makes the coffee better, so thanks for sharing!
July 18, 2016 at 11:32 amI haven’t had percolated coffee in so long. I would love to try it again and see how I like it.
July 19, 2016 at 3:24 amI really like how its easy to bring with you places. Some coffee machines are so bulky but this seems lightweight and doesn’t take up a lot of space!
July 19, 2016 at 10:52 amLove that is it a peculator! Gives a different taste than other coffee!
July 20, 2016 at 10:57 amI would love to own this and share this amazing coffee with my family!
July 21, 2016 at 10:31 amI really like that this is small and does not take up a lot of space, like some giant coffe makers do. Thanks for sharing it.
July 22, 2016 at 7:20 amThis looks like a quality system. I thank you so much for the lovely review.
July 23, 2016 at 10:36 pmI like that it seems easy to clean!
July 25, 2016 at 11:08 amI like to buy things that other people have tried so I know that they work, so thanks for trying this out and sharing it with us 🙂
July 26, 2016 at 11:11 amI love that they are perfect for small kitchens and that it is easy to operate.
July 26, 2016 at 9:26 pmOh, my! I haven’t had a percolator since 1985. I guess I fell hard for the drip coffee makers so popular for so long. I’d like to go back to a perk. It’s much more my style than a French press.
July 27, 2016 at 3:53 amI like how compact it is, not a lot of pieces to lose when you take it somewhere!
July 27, 2016 at 10:48 amI need a new coffee maker and this one looks easy enough to operate:)
July 27, 2016 at 12:04 pmI entered the Tula Baby Carrier on 7/27/2016 if I did not enter that correctly in the widget today.
July 27, 2016 at 12:13 pmI like that you say it is perfect for smaller kitchens! I can’t give up anymore counter space. 🙂
