In European families, mocha pots are relatively common utensils. This device was invented by Renato Bialetti in Italy in 1933. Since there are more utensils and methods that can make coffee that is closer to or is basically espresso, it can only be said that this is a coffee method that used to be similar to espresso. The original version was made of aluminum, and now there are other materials such as stainless steel.

1, the selection of fresh, good quality coffee is a must, grinding before cooking can better retain the complete flavor, without filling pressure, and according to the grinding fineness of hand coffee to grinding (Alice guess is with high temperature extraction, so do not need too meticulous grinding).

2. Add boiling hot water to the bottom of the mocha pot to shorten the heating time of the mocha pot, reduce the loss of coffee flavor and make the coffee taste less bitter, because the coffee powder will not always be heated on the stove.

3. When you hear that the water under the mocha pot has been evaporated to the sound of bubbles, you have to move quickly to a place where there is no heating source, and cool the kettle with a wet dishcloth to avoid continuous heating and pressure affecting that the water left in the powder trough is extracted, resulting in more bitter taste of coffee.

Using the vapor pressure of boiling hot water to extract coffee close to the flavor of espresso, it is a direct-fire coffee pot from Italy. Although the operation is not difficult, the timing of flameout takes a lot of skill. Using the unique rich taste that the drip filter coffee maker does not have, it is certainly good to drink directly, and you can also enjoy the variety of making lattes or Alfacito.
