The working principle and usage of mocha teapot Analysis of the structural characteristics of Moka teapot

First of all, let's analyze the structural characteristics of the mocha kettle.

The lower pot is filled with hot water, and after it is heated on the stove, the boiling steam of the hot water will pass through the pressure to filter the hot water from the tube of the coffee container in the lower pot through the coffee powder to leave the fragrant coffee in the upper pot.

Let's talk about the general steps:

1. Water quality is very important! It is best to use the clear water filtered from the household water purifier after heating. The amount of water filtered out of a cup of Italian style is about 30ml. According to this, the important amount of hot water poured into the mocha can be calculated, but pay attention to that the water should not exceed the horizontal height of the safety valve, otherwise the hot water will blow out with steam after heating, which may scald everyone.

two。 Draw a circle according to the diameter of the coffee container, cut the filter paper or filter cloth, and if it is a filter cloth, you must remember to wash it with water, otherwise there is a smell of cloth pulp in the coffee. The reason for putting filter paper or filter cloth is that the finer coffee powder can be avoided from entering the upper pot to ensure that the brewed coffee will not have residual coffee grounds, which is also the basic etiquette in coffee society.

3. Put the coffee powder into the coffee container, scrape the coffee powder higher than the edge of the container with a spoon, then gently press the coffee powder with a powder press or small spoon, and pay attention to do not leave any excess coffee powder around the coffee container, which will affect the life of the apron. Wet the filter paper or cloth with clean water, stick it on the filter at the bottom of the upper pot, and screw the upper pot and the lower pot together.

4. Heat the mocha pot with a mini gas stove or your own stove, but do not exceed the diameter of the lower pot, open the lid of the upper pot, and turn it down when the coffee liquid is filtered out. When you hear the sound of bubbles, it shows that the water in the next pot basically runs into the upper pot through the pressure of steam, and the fire can be turned off at this time.

5. Be sure to remember to warm the coffee cup in advance so that the aroma of the coffee can be better volatilized. Just pour the coffee from the mocha pot into the coffee cup. This is a very strong Italian style. If you can't bear the heavy taste of Italian style, you can also pour milk or milk foam according to your own taste, as well as granulated sugar, buzzing, and a cup of strong homemade coffee.
