    Thank you, Annalisa! I`ve started to make coffe with moka very recently, and despite now I`m getting a good coffe, I wonder if it`s normal that always kind of 20 to 30% of water is left in the water tank after the process; so to get this good coffe I put 80 to 90% more water than the measure (for overal losses) I want to drink or serve.

    That was so sweet. Perfect instructions for moka pots. There are quite a few clowns on YouTube advising that you preheat the water (to save time? It's the same in the end!) or to add an Aeropress paper filter, which ruins the flavor by absorbing flavorful oils. You have it right, the real Italian way, thank you!

    I don't know if blue mountain is still available. But back in the 80s I used a blend of BM and Italian roast.
    Once a week we'd get freshly roasted course ground.
    Its not easy to get fresh roasted coffee because it stinks a bit for the modern nose

    Annalisa, this is the best and clearest explanation I’ve ever encountered. Is that an espresso demitasse cup in the video, or a cappuccino size cup? Thank you, Ed

    I just bought one and I am trying to get it right. I have never liked coffee, but I think part of it is as an American, I think our coffees are too much in quantity. A little espresso is just the right amount for me. I have noticed that all of the non-Italians suggested filling the reservoir with hot water, but none of the Italians do. It's funny that over a few times of making it, the ones I have made with hot water were SUPER bitter which is the opposite of the reason people were saying to heat it first.

    Thank Italy for teaching us how to drink good coffee 🙏🙏🙏😘
    I discovered and bought my first moka brewer in Sicily.
    then I learned to lubricate the gasket with a little liquid cooking oil which makes it easier to seal without much force.
    It also extends the life of the gasket I believe. Try it yourself so you can see 😊

    Ciao! Thank you very much for the video. I have a few questions In your opinion, what's the best moka pot size to brew a single espresso? And for a single cappuccino? Do I need to brew exactly the amount of coffee as intended for a given brewer size? Is it ok to brew different styles of coffee in a single moka pot?

    ☕🙂
