(More customer reviews)There is a better and far cheaper filter if you are using these for for your 12 cup electric percolator. (Westbend, Presto, Hamilton Beach, etc)
Believe it or not, it is the ubiquitous 8-12 cup basket coffee filters that are used by everyone who has a drip coffee maker. There is no hole so you simply center the basket filter on the percolator tube and push the filter down over the tube with your thumb and fingers close to tube to make sure that the puncture is not much larger than the size of the tube. You will find that even if you tear it a little larger than the tube when you press the filter down over it there will be no problem with coffee grinds getting through.
After you do this you will have a nice paper basket filter inside you electric drip coffee maker that works better than the small round disc filters that they sell for these and save money on these expensive wrap filters.
One additional tip about cleaning electric percolators. I fill the pot with 12 cups of water and then put one of the Cascade w/ Dawn dishwasher packets in the basket.
Cascade 2-in-1 Action Pacs Dishwasher Detergent, Original Scent, 32-Count Bags (Pack of 5)
I then put it together as if I was making coffee and let it go for a cycle. When the light goes on after the brew cycle I let the hot dishwasher solution sit for a while. Then I pour it out, rinse the pot and run another cycle with just water. This cleans the stainless pot and basket and even the bowl at the bottom.
