I've drank a million cups with him that way, but not if I have a choice.
If you put a sweet gum twig across the top of the syrup bucket when you add the coffee grounds, it won't boil over. When it quits "rolling", you can pour clean groundless coffee into your cup... Absolutely best tasting coffee in the world!! It's stout, but no bitterness...
Only place I ever been that had that good a coffee was South America (Venezuela, Columbia and Peru)... Their coffee could be so strong, a spoon would almost stand up in the cup, but no bitterness. I've tried a dozen or more "South American" coffees here in the States, and have not been able to duplicate it yet! Believe it or not, about the closest I've been able to come to that kind of stout coffee is grinding my own beans from the vacuum sealed bags of 8-O'Clock coffee... It's pretty close...

Used to hear folks say when they had finished a project or job, "Well we got that all saucer'd and blow'd..."

Im a coffee snob. After growing up in Europe and then drinking the “crude” the non coms made in the field as a dog face I decided life is too short for bad coffee. On weekends it’s espresso made with a proper machine. Italian percolator for back up and M-F the french press. Quality whole beans and must be burr ground for the press. I submit exhibit A into evidence for my snobbery your honor. Over 100 yrs old and nothing has been built that grinds better for the press.

Percolator all day long although I only have one at deer camp. I use a cheap coffee maker at home and the 2 cups of coffee are incomparable.
Percolating produces a fine, rich and robust, flavorful cup of coffee. The coffee dripper running warm water over ground beans just can’t do what that percolator does.
I can’t wait to get back to West Tx.
