Moka Pot technique
- Fill the base with hot water to just below the safety valve.
- Fill the basket with medium-fine coffee, levelled but not tamped.
- Assemble and set on medium-low heat with the lid open.
- Pull it off the heat when the pour turns blonde and gurgles; cool the base under a tap.
- Serve straight or as the base for a stovetop latte.
Starting with hot water keeps the grounds from stewing on the way up. Keep the heat moderate - a sputtering brew turns bitter fast.
