What are the advantages and disadvantages of making coffee in mocha pot? correct usage and matters needing attention than Letty mocha pot

With the advent of Bialetti's new generation of pressurized mocha pots, the topic of mocha pots suddenly became hot. You should know very little about the mocha pot, which is a coffee brewer. So let's go on to learn about the coffee utensils that every Italian family must have. The mocha pot was invented by the Italian Alfonso Bialetti in 1933. The traditional mocha pot is generally made of aluminum alloy. It is easy to scratch and can only be heated by open fire, but it cannot be heated to brew coffee with an induction cooker. So now most of the mocha pots are made of stainless steel.

The principle of the mocha pot to extract coffee is very simple, that is, using the vapor pressure generated in the next pot, when the vapor pressure is high enough to permeate the coffee powder, it will push the hot water to the upper pot. The coffee extracted with mocha pot has a strong taste, sour and bitter, and has oil. Therefore, the biggest advantage of mocha pot is that it is small and convenient, easy to operate, and ordinary Italian women can master the skill of making coffee. And it is easy to brew strong coffee with golden grease. But its disadvantage is also very obvious, that is, the coffee made with a mocha pot has a low flavor limit, that is, it is not as clear and bright as hand-brewed coffee, nor is it as rich and delicate as an Italian coffee machine. As a result, there is almost no mocha pot in boutique coffee shops. But as a home coffee utensil is a 100-point appliance. How to use a mocha pot to make coffee? Appliances to be used include mocha pots, gas stoves and stoves or induction cookers, coffee beans, bean grinders and water. 1. Pour the purified water into the lower pot of the mocha pot, and the water level is about 0.5cm under the pressure relief valve. If you don't like the strong smell of coffee, you can put more water, but do not exceed the safety line marked on the coffee pot. If the coffee maker you buy is not marked, remember that the amount of water should not exceed the pressure relief valve, otherwise there will be safety risks and great harm to the coffee pot itself.

two。 The grinding degree of coffee is slightly thicker than that of Italian coffee. You can refer to the size of the filter gap in the powder trough to ensure that the coffee particles will not fall into the pot. Slowly pour the coffee powder into the powder trough, gently pat to evenly distribute the coffee powder, and smooth the coffee surface in the form of cloth powder in the shape of a hill.

The purpose of filling the powder trough is to avoid extracting a bad defective taste. Because when the density of coffee powder in the powder trough is closer, it avoids the phenomenon that some coffee powder is overextracted or underextracted, resulting in uneven flavor or bitterness. 3. Put the powder trough in the lower pot, tighten the upper and lower part of the mocha pot and heat it on the electric ceramic stove.

4. When the mocha pot heats up to a certain temperature, when the mocha pot makes an obvious "whining" sound, it means that the coffee has been brewed, set the electric ceramic stove to a low fire and open the lid of the pot.

5. When the coffee liquid on the pot is halfway out, turn off the electric ceramic stove. The residual heat and pressure of the mocha pot will "push" the remaining coffee liquid into the pot.

6. When the coffee liquid is extracted into the pot, you can pour it into the cup and taste it. The coffee extracted by the mocha pot is very rich and can extract Crema, which is closest to espresso in taste. At the same time, you can also mix in the right amount of sugar or milk. Friends who are interested in mocha pot can try it at home.
