The moka pot, also known as a stove top espresso machine, is a coffee maker which produces coffee by passing hot water pressurized by steam through ground coffee.
The flavor of Moka pot coffee depends greatly on bean variety, roast level, fineness of grind, and the level of heat used. Due to the higher than atmospheric pressure involved, the mixture of water and steam reaches temperatures well above 100 °C, causing a more efficient extraction of caffeine and flavors from the grounds, and resulting in a stronger brew than that obtained by drip brewing.
How to use:
1. Filled with water at the bottom, avoiding water that exceeds the safety valve.
2. Place the ground coffee inside the funnel. Do not use malt or coffee with other substances, which can condense and filter openings.
3. Keep coffee in a vertical position when screwing the two bodies.
4. Remove the coffee maker from the fire as soon as you can check that the coffee infusion disappeared completely at the top.
