Buttermilk for some things sweet milk for others and you don't use one for the other. For the same reason, don't try to use the same coffee for either drip maker or percolator. There's a special coffee for each. Here's the reason. In a Drip Coffee Maker, boiling water drips only once through a coffee specially prepared to yield its flavor quickly. While in a Percolator, the water continues to pass many times through a coffee prepared to yield its flavor foief jf. The same coffee can be used for both methods, but like a "Jack-of-all-trades" it is "master of none" neither drip nor percolator. In one or the other, little things happen. It's a little weak, or a little strong, or a little cloudy, or it has a little less flavor. It's these little things that make or mar good coffee. Be sure to use the correct coffee for each method. Your grocer has two Schilling Coffees, identical in flavor, but each is specially prepared for its purpose each one different in blend, roast and grind.
