How To Brew Moka Pot Coffee

Use coffee that is a fine grind, similar to espresso.

To make espresso in a Moka Pot:

1. Put your desired amount of water into the boiler.
   
   
2. Place the filter into the boiler. Add the finely ground coffee to the filter.
   
   
3. Tightly screw together the pot with the upper chamber and place it on your stove over medium heat.
   
   
4. As the water heats, the pressure will build and you should start to hear it brewing.
   
   
5. You will know your coffee is ready when you hear a gurgling noise which means the boiler is almost empty. This usually takes anywhere from 10-15 minutes.
   
   
6. Remove the pot from the stove and enjoy!
