Editing Coffee percolator (section)

==Decline==
With better brands of [[instant coffee]] and the introduction of the [[electric drip coffee maker]], the popularity of percolators plummeted in the early 1970s, and so did the market for the self-contained ground coffee filters. In 1976, [[General Foods]] discontinued the manufacture of Max Pax, and by the end of the decade, even generic ground coffee filter rings were no longer available. However, as of 2019, coffee percolator filters are still produced by the major coffee device maker [[Melitta]] and are readily available in stores and from online sources.
