Two things ..... first you better not put that much coffeepowder into the funnel (do not press the coffee and do not build a peak)...... second, when coffee is coming up and out of the slim leak lock, remove the pot immediately from heat and let about three quarters come up, the remaining boiling water stays in watertank (very often less is more, especially concerning the amount of coffee and the time of brewing) ...... Taking this into consideration will make the coffee tastier and less aggressive .... enjoy ;-)

I sincerely suggest you CLEAN the whole assembly immediately.

I have seen some videos on this, and most recommend to quickly take the pot off the stove once you start seeing bubbles, and even run it under cold water to stop the brewing process. Cooking for longer can supposedly create more bitter flavors. Im guessing the excess heat in the steam can extract the tannins in the coffee more quickly, and create this bitter flavor... People also recommend heating the water before adding it to the mocca pot, as this will limit the heat that is transferred to the coffee grounds. Electrical griders have relatively fast moving burrs, which will also create heat, and which is one reason some people prefer manual grinders.

@GadgetsforGentlemen

That depends a bit on your taste - how much coffee you drink in one go. I use the 1 cup Moka Express myself which allows me to pour 1 cup of espresso a time. If you use a 2 cup Moka then you will be able to serve yourself a double espresso. Which is much stronger than a single cup of espresso. When I have friends over I use a 3 cup Moka. That way I can share a single espresso and 1 double espresso. It all depends what your preferences are. Either way I think you cannot go wrong on this one.

Try boiling the water first then put in to the can. It really makes the biggest difference in keeping the bitter notes down to get more sweetness😃 And clean your pot. And dont press the coffee. Aaaand remove it as quickly as possible when it wissles. 😁

Yes 😁 In Dutch we call it: theelepel.

Hello! What temperature do you recommend on the stove top? Low, medium, high? Or somewhere between? Thanks!

Based on my good and bad experiences I would say try boiling or hot water to begin with, put it on medium to high fire till the coffee starts pouring, then lower the fire/heat till you hear the sissling sound and then take it of the stove. Best of luck and please report back in :)

Wow he really dumbed that down

Nice cups though

how much water goes in compared to coffee out in cup?

This is how much water you need : one full espresso cup. This is how much coffee this gets you : 0.5 to .75 espresso cup. Hope this helps 😁

@@GadgetsforGentlemen so it's probably good that there is still water in bottom chamber instead of being dry from boiling too long?

I think you are right. The shorter and the lower the heat the better. A little bit of water and coffee residue shouldn’t matter that much. Let me know how it goes 😁

Is this just for espresso?

I use it to make strong short coffees, somewhat like espressos. Not sure if it can be used for other coffees.

@@GadgetsforGentlemen Thanks. With espresso being the basis for most coffee's, I guess I could add more boiling water/milk?

Welcome! I used this device sometimes to make espresso as a base for a cappuccino/American size coffee. I would boil water/milk separately and mix it when the espresso is ready 😁

A good one !!

If this is an espresso, I'm an extraterrestrial from Mars. It doesn't have the high pressure you need to have the REAL ESSPRESO. This is something similar with the american filter cofee (probably stronger ), only this time you do it with steam. That's all .

I put a Coffee Paper Filter above in the siphon so the taste of coffee is smoother.

Can we use milk instead of water...???

No. Please do not do that.

More than 6 minutes until the water got finally hot! That's an extremely high energy consumption, isn't it? In the video you can see that most of the heat that the stove produces gets far outside of the Bialetti cooker. Actually I tried a Bialetti on an induction cooktop and the coffe was ready within about 30 seconds. However, on such cooktops you have to care for that you get one of these Bialetti cookers made of stainless steel.

Thanks for your feedback and you are very right sir. Some of my viewers suggested to use boiled water instead of cold water. An energy efficient water cooker would do. That way the Bialetti has a shorter exposure to heat.

Hi and t(and thank you very much! 😎🌸

I thought there is no such thing like 'Espresso' in Italy? They call it simple 'Cafe'. And with this Moka pot you make... Moka ;-)

🇮🇹 "Espresso" in Italy has the meaning of "fast". The espresso coffee machine was invented in Italy in 1901 by Luigi Bezzera from Milan, as an evolution of the Angelo Moriondo machine from 1884. The Moka coffee maker (or rather "Moka Express") was invented by Alfonso Bialetti in 1933. The addition of "Express" to the name has always created confusion. It was a commercial shrewd ... it does not produce an espresso, but the success of this machine was precisely the fact that you can easily prepare a good coffee at home, in competition with that of the bar.

The funnel is not the filter. The filter is in the bottom of the top part of the moka pot.

If you want a slightly more premium one look for the Bialetti Brikka. It builts up more pressure.

It’s not an espresso, you need around 9 bar to get the espresso
