You wont believe this but I am using vintage clear corning glass perolators with 8oclock coffee and it is GOOD!
I lile really strong flavor from dark roasted beans which I grind with a mill. Since Starbucks discontinued Decaf Verona, I have switched to Cost Plus World Market Italian roast. I can get a pound and a half of their beans for less than a pound of StarSucks. I just have to drive out of my way and stock up.
