如何使用Moka Pot：

- 炉灶浓咖啡制造商（Moka Pot）
- 煤气或电炉

- Coffee grinder（可选的）
1.Grind your coffee.
你需要非常精细的咖啡。瞄准A.浓咖啡级磨. Alternatively, you can use a pre-ground coffee likeCafé Bustelo.
2.Add water to the bottom.
将水倒入Moka Pot的底部，直到溢流线。
3.将咖啡包装到过滤器中。
Using a spoon, pack the ground coffee into the metal filter. You’ll want it full and level. Place the filter into the bottom compartment, above the water.
4.将Moka Pot坐在一起，将其放在炉子上。
Put each piece together, making sure the Moka pot is screwed together tightly. Then carefully place it on a stove burner. Turn the stove on to high heat.
5.Wait for the water to boil.
在水沸腾的时候等几分钟。当它到达沸点时，你将能够听到蒸汽穿过锅。我们建议靠近您的Moka Pot，因为这可能会很快发生。
6。从热量中取出罐子。
Once the upper pot is full, remove the pot from the burner and turn it off. Now your coffee’s ready to serve!
Moka Pot Tips：
Our most important Moka pot tip is to stay in the room while you’re brewing. You don’t want to leave it on the stove after it’s finished brewing, and the brewing process can happen surprisingly quickly! But what else do you need to know to produce the perfect cup of stovetop espresso?
什么样的咖啡？
Moka pots produce strong, espresso-like coffee, so think about the flavors you like in espresso. Do you prefer dark, rich flavors or lighter, more complex flavors? We generally use dark roast beans (likeLifeboost）捕获经典的浓缩咖啡。
哪个炉子会工作？
之前you choose a Moka pot, you’ll want to make sure it’s compatible with your stove. Most Moka pots will work with gas and electric burners. If you have an induction stove, you may need to look for a specially designed Moka pot like the Bialetti Moka Induction.
What Kind of Water?
As with all coffee brewing methods, we recommend using filtered (not distilled） 水。过滤水有较少的矿物质，可以在酿造器里面积聚并保持其正常工作。

清洁怎么样？
Moka Pot有几个组件，所以你会想要确保你保持全部清洁。请记住，大多数Moka Pots都是由金属制成的 - 因此在开始清洁过程之前，请在几分钟内冷却！
Take the Moka pot apart and wash the pieces individually. The top compartment and filter can be quickly cleaned with soap and water. The water compartment on the bottom just needs a quick rinse. If you see any mineral buildup, you can clean it out with water and vinegar.
