Cuisinart Classic 12-Cup Percolator PRC-12

Date Published: 4/25/06

Traditional stainless-steel styling characterizes the Cuisinart Classic 12-cup Percolator PRC-12. This unit brews 4-12 cups of piping hot coffee at a rate of one cup per minute. A ready light signals that the brew cycle has completed and coffee is ready to serve. The percolator has a 6-inch diameter stay-cool base, a long, slender pouring spout, and a stay-cool black handle. Both the handle and base are made from hard phenolic plastic.

The stainless-steel lid locks in place during use and has a see-through knob that lets you watch the coffee as it perks. A detachable cordset lets you plug the unit in for brewing and then remove the cord when serving. The unit also features a reusable stainless-steel filter basket with convenient markings that show how much ground coffee should be used when making 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12 cups of coffee. By brewing at the perfect temperature, just below boiling, the Cuisinart Classic Percolator delivers wonderfully flavorful, aromatic coffee. To keep coffee warm after brewing, simply leave the cordset plugged in.
