For a 30-cup percolator it is necessary to measure out 1/4 cup of ground coffee for every 10 cups of coffee to be made. Therefore, a 30-cup percolator will require 3/4 cup of ground coffee. If coffee is to be a little stronger than normal, add another tablespoon of ground coffee to the percolator basket.

Have you ruined your 30 cup coffee maker by plugging it in without water in it?
The only way you can do that is with a percolator, which is nearly the worst thing you can possibly do to a pot of coffee. Get a real coffee maker, or better yet, a coffee press.

How can I find out how much coffee is needed to make coffee in an electric percolator?
Try how much you think does in then if its too strong put less in, if its too weak put more in. Then you should find out. You could do the hit and miss method however you need to know how much water your percolator holds. It should be marked on the inside. Use 1 1/2 tablespoons of medium/course ground coffee for every 6 ounce cup of water. Most percolators have a clear bubble top and you can see the color of the coffee being brewed. If you prefer milder coffee you can always stop the percolation process as you please by unplugging the appliance.

How does a percolator produce coffee?
It doesn't, coffee is grown. The way a percolator works is by the change in the density of water when it is heated. Water is placed in the percolator then the riser tube is placed in and the filter cup with ground coffee in it is placed on the top of the tube, ABOVE the top surface of the water. The water is heated at the bottom of the pot, this hot water rises and is directed up the tube, cold water replaces it at the bottom of the pot, this cold water as the density is much higher forces the hot water up the tube where it overflows into the filter basket and percolates back down through the coffee grounds, then back to the pot to be cycled through again. The percolation slows down as the temperatures in the pot equalize, or the water level is lowered.
