How to Make the Perfect Espresso
|
|
|
|
---|---|---|---|
To start, unscrew the top part of the espresso maker with the handle from the bottom part of the espresso maker and remove the funnel that nests inside the base of the espresso maker. |
Next, fill base with water to the level of the safety valve. Replace the funnel into the base and fill it with ground coffee; do not press coffee down. For best results, use fresh roasted, finely ground coffee. The recommendation is to use a 6-to-1 water to coffee ratio. For each tablespoon of coffee, use 3 oz. of water. |
Tighten the top to the base. Make sure the top is completely screwed on to the base before putting on the stovetop. |
Heat coffee until coffee percolates to the top. Make sure the handle of the espresso maker is not over the heat source. Remove from heat and serve. Enjoy! |
Available in a Variety of Sizes

Customers are mixed about the size of the coffee maker. Some mention it's the perfect size and can use it on the larger burner, while others say that it'd be better suited for single use. The parts fit together well, and nothing is too tight or loose. However, some customers feel the coffee machine is a bit too small, with a 3 cup size that's really little. The bottom diameter is too small and the flame comes out too much. Overall, the product is small and barely fits on a gas stove.
"...Bought this. First, misjudged the size. Thought three espresso cups make at least 2/3 of a regular cup, wrong...." Read more
"...This kettle comes in multiple sizes in case someone wanted to brew more at once." Read more
"It was my fault. I ordered the wrong size. This was too small for what I needed. But it was high quality and worked well." Read more

"The 3 cup is perfect for one person! Easy to clean!" Read more
"Rich, high quality brew. However, it only produces 2 servings. So I would suggest a bigger one. The frothed works great!" Read more

Customers are dissatisfied with the handle of the coffee maker. They mention that it melts on open flame, breaks easily, and is not head resistant.
"...batches of espresso back to back and at some point the plastic handle melted and stuck to my finger when I picked it up...." Read more
"...beyond the burner - if the handle is directly above the heat, it WILL melt. Do NOT use on high heat - use a medium setting...." Read more
"...today (1.5 weeks after the return period for the pot) the handle melted off disastrously and wreaked havoc in my kitchen...." Read more
"...Dropped it this morning and the plastic handle snapped and broke off. I tried to super glue it back, but that was a no go...." Read more
Customers are dissatisfied with the leakage of the coffee maker. They mention that it leaks when pouring, making an awful noise. The coffee would shoot out from underneath the top, and the unit does get water spots. The water doesn't completely rise to the top and the bottom chamber doesn' t empty at all.
"...My only complaint is that it leaks a little bit when pouring and I always try to screw the top on extra tight but no luck!..." Read more
"...It takes some time to heat up, and it does have some leakage as you pour if you’re careful though so keep that in mind!..." Read more
"...also the seal was quite loose upon arrival and leaked often." Read more
"...used to Bialetti's you'll probably notice the sharper edges and the leakiness...." Read more

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Then I read about the Moka pot, where the pressured steam passes through the coffee grounds and maked the decoction/espresso. Curious, and not wanting to spend a whole lot of money, I bought this.
I made my first batch of decoction with Udhayam Indian coffee/chicory blend and was blown away! It took just 3 minutes and I had strong decoction to make four 8 oz cups of strong "filter coffee" with whole milk!
My American family loves my filter coffee. I make 20 cups for thanksgiving and I used this moka pot to make all the decoction/espresso.
Caution/Warning: I did multiple batches of espresso back to back and at some point the plastic handle melted and stuck to my finger when I picked it up. To be fair to the seller, they do warn us to not keep the handle close to the fire.
My tips to a good espresso: Fill the bottom with lukewarm water below the safety valve. Fill the coffee grounds in the container and slightly tamp it down. Screw the top on. Heat at medium or below and let the espresso come out at the top. Lower the heat and let the process finish. Immediately transfer the espresso to a different container to prevent scorching.
I have used Indian filter coffee brands (Kothas, Udhayam) and Costco dark roast with great success.
Hope you find this review useful.
Fill the bottom with water, pack expresso in the holder and put over a low flame for about 6 mins.
The only downside I would say is the silver is impossible to keep the fingerprints off of, I’m sure I could polish it but..if it bugs you I would get the colored one. Highly recommended for beginners and pros alike!
Makes nice creama too!

desventajas: la parte donde se coloca el cafe es la mas fragil se siente blanda por lo cual tendrias que tener cuidado para que no se doble. una vez hecho el cafe tienes que dejarla enfriar por obvia razones y al momento de querer desarmar se batalla un poco.
consideraciones: marca 6 tazas pero son tazas pequeñas, la tetera te da capacidad para una taza regular, pero tengan en consideracion que el concentrado de cafe es fuerte, por lo que si no lo acostumbras a tomar asi, lo puedes diluir en agua caliente y te puede rendir hasta para tres tasas regulares. recomendaria no usar del cafe que se diluye, compren mejor un cafe con un molino fino. Si tienen niños mantengan la tetera fuera del alcance ya que podria causar que se quemen al querer tomarla
