We bought the Hamilton Beach 80374 Custom Grind Hands-Free Coffee Grinder, hoping to make the perfect grind for our Moka Express. Unfortunately the one we got came without instructions so we have been experimenting to find the best way to get a fast excellent cup of coffee. We have several different coffee machines, so if grinding for the Moka Express, we use the largest espresso grind setting. The Hamilton beach coffee grinder has a minimum cup amount, which is 4 cups. Bear in mind that most coffee pots are using a 6 ounce cup as their standard. Since our Moka Express only makes 2 cups espresso style coffee, we found that adding coffee beans until the blade in the grinder is just covered with beans worked great. It's important to be sure that the inside grinding cup is in place and then turned clock wise to lock in place before putting outside clear plastic cover on and turning clock wise to lock in place. They both need to be locked in place separately! This could be why some people claim that the grinder fails to work after a short time. If the inside cup is not locked in place the grinder will not work and if you try to force the outside clear plastic container you can damage the locking tabs. We discovered that using 2 measuring spoons of the ground beans (that come with the grinder) are perfect for the drinks we craft in our Moka Express. In order to shorten the brewing time we decided to start with boiling water in the lower chamber. We were very happy to save the 5+ minutes of brewing time. If you are using the boiling water, then obviously you will need to use a pot holder to protect your hands while connecting the top and bottom of the pot. We set our electric stovetop to 8 on heat indicator set the oven timer to 5 min. and proceed to heat and froth milk while coffee is brewing. Pour 1/2 coffee cup of froth and pour coffee over the milk froth. Hooray! coffee is wonderful. We use a medium roast coffee. The actual brew time is only about 2 min. using this method. The brewed coffee is very robust with medium roast more so then a drip method. Our over all goal was not to waste coffee. We have a family that get's up at different times and makes a full pot, which then would get thrown down the sink as who wants a cup of coffee that's a hour old. This way we get the benefit of saving money and having a relatively quick cup of coffee, kind of like the K cup machines, but without the cost. The flavor of an espresso machine without the cost and the counter space. It's been a win win for us. We have a battery run frother, that makes great frothy drinks. We bought rechargeable batteries so we would always have fresh power. Sending thanks to other people who suggest not to wash the Moka Express with soap. We are thrilled with all the great advice that has literally saved us hundreds of dollars on experimenting on other pricy coffee making products. Thanks Amazon that we have access to to simple, great, affordable products.","date":"","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"moka-pot-bialetti-mo","source":"amazon","sourceUrl":"https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0000CF3Q6","author":"Kristen L.","rating":5,"text":"Great price, great little unit, would definitely buy again!. I really love Cuban coffee, but since I live in a small town, in a cold weather climate state, if I want Cafe con Leche at home, I have to make it myself. After a ton of research, including reading reviews and watching YouTube videos, I decided to get the 3 cup Bialetti. You can't go wrong with the price, and it seems to be a very sturdy little coffee pot. It's very easy to use, and after some experimenting, which has been fun and delicious, here are my suggestions/instructions on what I have personally found to work the best. These are just my personal suggestions, use them if you wish, or feel free to do something completely different!!!!- First things first, for the sake of technicality, please be aware that this coffee pot doesn't technically make espresso. True espresso is made by forcing very hot water, through the ground coffee, by use of very high pressure. This little unit doesn't build up enough pressure to technically create true espresso. What this unit is going to produce is approximately 2 times the strength of drip brewed coffee, with a very high level of oils from the grounds. And unlike espresso machines, which create a layer of golden crema on top of the espresso, this machine isn't really going to do that either. There will be a little bit of golden brown foam on the top, but not really. So for any espresso purists out there, while I commend you for your appreciation of fine espresso, this unit is not for you.- Always use good water. If you have bad water (ie: hard water, chlorinated, rusty), use bottled water. You are trying to pack a lot of flavor into a small amount of liquid, and bad water will make bad coffee.- Fill the water chamber to just below the valve. Please don't overfill it.- I currently am using Cafe Bustelo in the can, but will be experimenting with other brands like Pilon.- For the 3 cup version, I spoon in coffee by the teaspoon, leveling the coffee with each spoonful. When the basket is full, add a little extra coffee on top to create a mound. Total amount I put in ends up being about 4 heaping teaspoons. Make sure the threads are clear of any grounds, and screw the top on. This will compact the coffee down on its own.- Before you place the pot on the stove, make sure that the top portion is firmly screwed on to the bottom. If it is not, the pot will not brew properly, and you will lose moisture and steam pressure from between the threads.- Never use high heat for this coffee pot. I have an electric range that is about 12 years old or so, and I use one of the small burners, and never turn it past 5. It takes a little bit longer to do it this way, but makes a huge difference. High heat will cause the coffee to have a burnt, bitter taste.- I cannot emphasize enough the importance of keeping the heat low. You have to be a little patient during the heating process, but the difference in the flavor is worth the extra time!- Until you become really familiar with exactly how the pot will work on your stove, I would recommend not walking away. It takes a bit of time for the water to heat enough and build up the pressure, but once the coffee starts coming out into the top chamber, its going to go fast.- Resist the urge to keep lifting the lid of the pot. It's hard to do because its pretty cool to see the coffee filling up the top chamber :) I left my lid open the whole time I made my first batch, and lost some coffee in the process. The coffee will kind of spurt and splatter around during the brewing process, so you can imagine what my stove looked like afterwards.- The first few spurts of coffee that come up will probably have an almost syrupy appearance. This is GOOD! You want this! If the coffee doesn't look like this, and/or its pretty pale, you don't have enough coffee in your filter basket. If the coffee is pale, its still ok to drink, but treat it like you would a regular drip coffee. It will not taste like espresso at all.- Each pot sounds a little different, but learn to tell when the bottom chamber has no more water in it. The sputtering noises in the top of the chamber will increase in volume a little as the water chamber empties.- As soon as the bottom chamber is empty, immediately remove the pot from the heat source. If you let it sit on the heat, it will burn the coffee. This is bad! Burnt coffee is nasty!!!!- If you are dividing the coffee between multiple cups, make sure you either gently swirl the pot a few times, or stir the coffee gently before you pour. You want to make sure that the inital thick liquid from the first few moments is evenly distributed throughout the liquid. If you don't, the last cup you fill will contain a much larger portion of the oils from the coffee, and will be stronger than the other servings. I recommend NOT sharing the espresso, and drinking it all for yourself! It's too good to share!!! :)At this point, you can drink it straight if you wish. If that's what you would like, stop reading now............If you want to do a little more w...","date":"","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"moka-pot-bialetti-mo","source":"amazon","sourceUrl":"https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0000CF3Q6","author":"Amazon Customer","rating":5,"text":"Must have coffe maker.

La forma más barata y sencilla de preparar lo más parecido a un espresso en casa sin tener una máquina de espresso. El modelo de \"3 tazas\" produce alrededor de 100 ml de café. (Son \"tazas\" de espresso, que son de 30-60 ml cada una, según el barista.)¿Por qué comprar la Bialetti, cuando puedes comprar clones chinos por menos de la mitad del precio?Simplemente porque la calidad lo vale. Está hecha con materiales de primera, y si crees que eso no influye en la preparación y en el sabor del café... te tengo noticias. Esta cafetera, si la cuidas bien, se puede pasar de generación en generación. Sólo cambiarías el empaque cada cierto tiempo.Es facilísima de usar: se abre, se pone agua caliente en la base hasta la marca (debajo de la válvula de seguridad), se pone el filtro, se pone el café (molido medio-fino, sin llegar al molido para espresso --aunque yo la he usado con molido para espresso, sin problemas), se cierra, y se pone a fuego bajo.Es muy importante que la flama no toque las paredes de la moka, únicamente la base. (Luego por eso ves reviews de que se les derritió el mango... lo están haciendo mal. Jajajaja.)En cuanto comienza a salir el café, se retira del fuego, procurando mantener la temperatura sin que aumente. Hasta que empiece a salir más vapor con burbujas, que indica que ya hay que cortar el calor, para que no se queme el café y no sepa amargo. En este punto, yo pongo la moka dentro de un tazón con agua al tiempo durante unos 10-20 segundos para que se enfríe. Y luego se sirve.El café sale más concentrado que en una cafetera normal, incluso más concentrado que en una prensa francesa. Por eso es lo más parecido a un espresso que se puede hacer sin una máquina de espresso. Pero no sale el café con su crema (hay una Bialetti especial para eso).Es muy fácil de lavar. Se separa la cámara de agua (la base), el filtro, el empaque, y se lava todo por separado. Secar antes de guardar, y no ejercer presión sobre el empaque al cerrarla para que dure más tiempo.Importante lavar el empaque después de cada uso, pues éste es de material orgánico que puede guardar olores, sabores, y/o microorganismos.Definitivamente la recomiendo y la volvería a comprar.","date":"","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"moka-pot-bialetti-mo","source":"amazon","sourceUrl":"https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0000CF3Q6","author":"E A Keeling","rating":5,"text":"Amazing coffee, even from the cheapest beans!.

The result of this joint effort was commercialized under the name of Cuor di Moka (Heart of Moka). It presented indeed a huge series of improvements with respect to the original design, in particular, a better (silicon) handle and a refined locking system, but more interestingly, a valve-controlled brewing able to regulate the speed and to cut the last part of the extraction (usually the burned one in the traditional, Sunday lunches in Italy..). Moreover, a hiss produced with the deviated vapor pressure advised that the coffee was ready. Finally, the Moka was thicker to maintain the coffee temperature. Unfortunately, problems with the valve mechanism (I guess, I have many of them) eventually lead it out of production. In my opinion, it was really the peak of quality in a Moka brewer.

I lived in ltaly for almost 20 years so wasn't making those mistakes but, it was really interesting to learn WHY not to do them. Still use the moka pot that my friends gave me as a farewell present 30 years ago too. I use it everyday so, it was lucky they included a supply of gaskets and handles in the gift, as it was many years before they were available here in Aotearoa/ New Zealand. I still remember how silly l felt holding a moka sobbing my heart out. Off to clean mine now though, as l've realised it's been a while.😊","date":"2023-06-12","sentiment":"neutral"},{"productId":"moka-pot-bialetti-mo","source":"youtube","sourceUrl":"https://youtube.com/watch?v=UGln0l_lFrk","author":"@CaveyMoth","rating":null,"text":"Thanks for your tutorials. They have significantly improved my moka pot brewing experience. The thermometer trick was especially helpful. It's great to know that it's actually heating up! Setting the heat to 3 on my induction stove just barely heats the thing up, whereas 1 and 2 actually don't seem to break even, and cause it to cool down over time instead. I use this to my advantage to control the flow of coffee. Now here are some of my own tips! It's great using a filter above the coffee. It produces a brew that is cleaner and less bitter. I actually use filter below the coffee as well, to prevent the coffee from flowing back into the water tank. It makes cleanup just a little bit easier. When it comes to cleaning up the moka pot, removing the gasket underneath the upper tank can be quite tricky at first. I use the tip of a butter knife. Just slide it in from the center, angle the knife so that it gets underneath the gasket, hold onto the gasket with your fingers so it doesn't go back in, and move the knife around the perimeter of the gasket from underneath until it comes out enough for you to finally pull it out with your fingers. You can avoid the rubbery taste that the new gasket makes by taking it out and washing it before you brew with the moka pot for the first time. To prevent coffee from staining the upper tank after each brew, I add the leftover water from my hot kettle to the tank right after I pour out the coffee. That way, the moka pot is practically cleaning itself while it has a chance to cool down.","date":"2023-02-26","sentiment":"positive"}],"article":null}
