I adore my vintage CorningWare stovetop percolator 9c coffee pot. Yet I am missing the basket cover/lid that sits inside. Does anyone know where I can get one?
I believe this will be difficult to replace because when searching for this basket lid all I can find are replacements parts consisting of the inside parts and most of these do not have the basket lid.
If I remember correctly there were several different styles of these coffee pot and they may not all be the same size/type of basket so be sure if you find one it is the same model as yours.
It is possible you can find if there is a later model basket that will fit your peculator. Here is a link to their site:
www.corningware.com/
eBay has several parts listed for sale but many of these do not have the basket cover. Here is one that does seem to have all inside parts but not sure about the model - it says it is for a 9 cup.

You may be able to take your basket to Ace or True Value Hardware and see if they have a basket cover that will fit. Occasionally Bed, Bath & Beyond carries odd things so you might try calling them as they may have a generic lid.
Of course, I always look at thrift stores for things like this but not always lucky.
There are a few on eBay:

These aren't my auctions so he sure to verify the seller has good feedback.
I see these inserts periodically at Goodwill.
Post back with an update!
This one might work for you if you are only looking for the lid. You may need to buy the whole piece to replace your lid. Look up on top they sell some lids too. www.amazon.com/

Not the best but you can shop around.
8 cup or 12 cup?
This one may work if it is 8 cup--be sure to ask the seller to verify it matches the exact dimensions on yours:

You could keep an eye out for one at Goodwill or a thrift store, but they are hard to come by. You could always set up a Google alert and when an exact match comes up for sale, you will get a notice.

I have an eight cup Yosemite percolator. The plastic or glass bubble atop the percolator broke. I need to find a new one. Any ideas where I might buy one?

Many years ago (probably over 20) my parents used some sort of small jar as a replacement on their old percolator. I feel like it was a baby food jar.
Here is a website that sells glass perc tops (there are probably others as well)::

I am looking for the spring that holds the basket in the percolator. I have an 8 cup percolator that I love. Please help me find the above. Thanks.

If you know the name of the manufacturer, use either Google or Dogpile search engines. Find the name of the company who made it, give them a call and I believe that you could order a part.
If you are unable to contact the manufacturer of your percolator, go to, or call the nearest restaurant supply store. If they do not carry it, they surely will be able to help you locate one. Hope that helps.

Sometimes you can find them at thrift stores. You can try writing the company that made it. They might have replacement parts. Good luck. My friend volunteers at a thrift shop. If you want to send me your e-mail address, I can let you know if she comes across one. Of course, it might matter what brand it is. My e-mail is nkc613@aol.com. Good luck.

I need a replacement basket and stem for my 12 cup Farberware Fast Brew coffee pot. Where would I find used ones? New ones cost more than I paid for the pot.
