Moka Pot Brew Guide

Moka Pot makes rich, espresso-style coffee on the stovetop. Use fine grind, medium heat. Scaled for 6-cup pot.

Recipe:

20-22g coffee (fine, slightly coarser than espresso), 345g water. Brew 3-6 min.

1. Grind coffee:

   Fine (larger than espresso powder, finer than pour-over). Measure 20-22g.

2. Fill bottom:

   Hot water to safety valve level (~345g). Insert funnel. No water in funnel.

3. Add coffee:

   Fill funnel with grounds. Level flat, clean rim. Don't tamp.

4. Assemble:

   Screw top tightly.

5. Heat:

   Medium-low stovetop. Gas flame no bigger than base.

6. Brew:

   Listen for gurgle/hiss. Remove from heat immediately when chamber fills.

7. Serve:

   Pour carefully (use potholder). Drink black or with small milk.

Care:

• Cool completely. Disassemble. Rinse parts with hot water only, no soap.

• Season new pot: Brew 2-3 cycles before drinking.

Notes:

• Start with hot water to reduce extraction time.

• Low heat prevents bitterness.

• Fine grind but not too fine (avoids clogging).

Adjust ratios and timing to match your coffee and taste.
