West Bend recommends 2 cups of (medium coarse) ground coffee for 36 cups of coffee. It also states that theses measurements are for mild coffee. Add another 1/4 - 1/2 cup for stronger coffee. Keep adding more until it meets your liking. Here's the link to the manual for model #58036. http://www.manualslib.com/manual/337763/West-Bend-58030.html#manual

The West Bend Large Capacity Coffemakers do not use replacement filters. The manual for the West Bend 33600 Large Coffee Urn is available here:

http://www.westbend.com/supportdata/L5613B_LargeCapacityUrns-All.pdf

Use an electric perk or regular grind coffee in the percolator basket rather than a 'drip' or finely ground coffee that would require a filter.

If you require a new basket, please see the West Bend on-line replacement part site here:

Assuming you have a model 58602, the only 22-cup urn listed on West Bend's parts site, the news isn't good. The parts page for that model says the stem is no longer available. Checking a few other parts links all turn up the same answer. You might try checking locally at thrift stores or on Craig's list to see if anybody has one available.

Sorry I can't do more, but thanks for using Fixya!
