    Does anyone here use a Moka pot for brewing their coffee? What do you think of it? What size do you use, what grind,favorite coffee and generally what's your opinion of this brewing method? I have drip, pour over, and French press now and was thinking of trying Moka pot..

    I read on another board that espresso has on average 70mg of caffiene and a regular cup of joe can have 320mg per cup. I was wondering what the content of caffeine in Moka comes out to be. On a side note, had a personal record for false crema in my moka pot. Quite possibly the tastiest Moka...

    I think I'm close to acheiving Moka Crema... Let me know what you guys think. Maybe my 5th pot made, using a 1-cup. I think I need to tamp in a bit more!

    I've been lurking reading everything about Moka pots and I thought I would see what all the fuss was about...so I bought one on ebay for .99 cents. (shipping was $10!) Well when it came in today I washed it with special attention paid to the gasket etc. I then took the advice to afix the two...

    Howdy all I am new to your coffee forums here but have been around the Cigar and Pipe forums for some time. Well after reading all your posts on the wonderful Moka Pot I went ahead and sprung for one. I havent had an espresso machine in a few years do to the fact that I got tired of replacing...

    A 1-cup, 3-cup and 6-cup off ebay. Looks like the 1 and 3 are used, the 6 looks brand new. And I think only 1 is Bialetti, but all 3 are made in italy... and every thing looks exactly the same. The 1-cup has the bialetti man on it. The 3-cup has morenita etched on it. And the 6-cup has nothing...

    The moka pot slow pass has been a fun opportunity for me to learn more about another extraction method. The Brikka is really fun to use once you get the hang of it. Here are some pictures from my brewing session last night. The contenders--Starbucks Barista espresso machine (with...

    I have a $20 GC to Crate and Barrel, going to get teh 6 cup (12oz) moka today. I am wondering what the amount of beans required is to fill it. I currently use just over 1/3 for my 32oz Press, which gives me my morning cup and afternoon cup at work. I am curious to know the ratio so I can...

    I'm starting a Brikka Test Drive PASS. The purpose is to put a Bialetti Brikka in your hands to play with for two weekends. I figured two weekends as a weekend is usually the only time we have to play. As there is a lot of cross-over's to other slopes, I'm adding a bead stick, cigars and...

    Mister Moo is a driving force in the Coffee Forum. If you want to learn about mokapots, his Mokapot in Eight Easy Steps post is a great guide. It takes the novice through the steps to make a great expresso like drink with a good head of false crema. You will find that some of the text of this...

    I tried the search and got a lot of "moka pot" hanging out in threads but got no closer to my answer. So I am going to be lazy and ask! Waiting for my roaster set up and want to know what roast works best with the moka pot. Any of the roasts I have been gifted do not work well, most of the...

    I founbd a cherap Moka Pot at my local grocery store yesterday. They had it for $7.99, so what the heck, I picked one up. I ground some beans on my Braun at the espresso setting and boiled up a cup. The seal leaks a bit of water, but the 1/2 mug that it made was pretty eye opening. Any...

    At the weekend I bought a Bialetta Moka Express 3 cup, and I have to say, it's taken my coffee enjoyment to a whole new level. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a low cost way of making espresso. And for anyone who likes to drink Americano's, this thing is awesome. The Moka pot has...

    this has gotten good reviews on several coffee sites at the stupid expensive price. At $60 I am tempted to buy one, but my wife would really have a fit seeing as I already have 2 "backup" machines...
