Great option for your morning coffee. It only makes one mug or two espresso but its strong n tastes good. I like to use bustello with mine but am gonna try some portuguese coffee with it soon. A little cinnamon n frothed milk. Mmm
I love making coffee in my moka pot and if I travel for work, I can bring it with me and try beans from new places. The sound of the espresso bubbling inside is weirdly centering. Morning routines work! I make a pretty decent flat white. If I'm feeling absolutely insane? affogato for dessert. World's my oyster.
just got my bialetti a bit ago since my french press broke and i’ve been experimenting with the process to get better results, here’s what works for me: - start by bringing some water to boil in a lil pot
- once it boils, pour the water into the basin of the moka pot (some places say to hit below the valve but I fill up to the threads almost)
- in the lil ground holder, I do cafe bustelo and a PINCH of salt to cut the bitterness, DO NOT COMPRESS!! just shake the lil thing lightly til the grounds settle. the water has a harder time getting through if you compress the grounds. and don’t fill all the way to the rim
- put the moka pot together and put on the burner on medium heat, once you hear it start to brew for a bit, pour whats brewed into your mug, then rest back on the burner and repeat a few shorter brews to get it all. taking it off the heat intermittently keeps the grounds from overcooking and introducing more bitterness
- I like a room temp coffee most days so I pour into a mug with a big ol ice cube, like what you’d use for whiskey in a glass. would recommend
I have been using Lavazza “Perfetto Roast” grounds in a moka pot for almost a decade now. I take a bag of coffee and the pot with me wherever I travel. It is better than any other coffee I have ever had. I never get coffee out. Which is a cost saver but also I get 6 bags every 2 months on an Amazon subscription that is also discounted. I think just generally that by the age of 30 everyone needs their coffee situation figured out.
Obviously play with your cat. But if you play with your cat ten minutes before meals you simulate the natural hunting instinct. Curbs misdirected aggression and also I think makes them enjoy their food more. Just my two cents.. that Jackson Galaxy agrees with.
Me and my girlfriend have been getting into tennis its so fun. Your body moves in a really great way when you play and makes you feel glad. I still suck but am starting to be able to get a volley going from the backline. It is a good feeling to hit that ball right and run around. Almost as good as soccer.
