About this deal

As I stated earlier, moka pots are nothing like your conventional espresso makers. You need to brew the designated amount at any given time depending on the pot size you buy. In other words, each size is designed to brew a certain amount of espresso. This means that moka pots must always be filled with the same amount of coffee and hot water. The moment you start changing the amount of coffee, water, temperature, and brewing duration, the taste goes out the window. This is because these changes affect the extraction process and how water flows through the grounds. What does the size of a Moka pot mean? It’s important to know that we aren’t talking about traditional “cup” measurements when it comes to the Moka pot. The number of “cups” your Moka pot can produce represents the number of 50-milliliter espresso-sized cups that can be produced. For the solo coffee connoisseurs among us, the brew-a-cup-at-a-time Moka pots are the perfect fit. But, if you plan to share a cup with your partner or friend, choose one that can make more than 1 brew per use – there is nothing more annoying than having to repeat the process multiple times for multiple coffees. Isn’t a coffee maker just a coffee maker? Anyone who thinks this way has probably never enjoyed a steaming, silky cup that’s been brewed by hand using a Moka pot. Coffee brewed in these little Italian pots actually doesn’t taste like coffee at all.

The problem with trying to “customize” your serving for less coffee is that you’re going to have an over-extraction problem. This means that coffee taste, texture, and caffeine level are going to be “off.” The size of Bialetti moka pots is measured in cups: the capacity of this one is 3 cups, which corresponds to 130 ml of coffee.

Frequently Asked Questions

Arriva confezionata in un pieghevole informativo, in italiano e inglese, mi è piaciuto molto il fatto che, cosa non banale, sia inserito anche un piccolo foglietto che spiega bene l'uso e la manutenzione corretta della caffettiera (come caricarla correttamente, come chiuderla per non rovinare la guarnizione, come regolare la fiamma e come pulirla). Dose: Brewing less coffee per water amount will leave you with a weak and watery- tasting beverage. Brewing more coffee per water amount will leave you with a bitter-tasting beverage. Your best bet is to brew the correct amount of beverage using the correct amount of water and beans depending on the pot size. That’s why you must buy the smaller model if you tend to brew fewer cups of coffee and a larger model if you brew more cups to avoid altering the overall dose and ratios. Do you really want to waste time in the morning when you could have fast, great coffee using a smaller pot? Sacrificing quality really goes against the entire point of using a Moka pot to get perfectly crafted, high-quality coffee. This is why it’s important to choose the size that will fit your daily needs instead of worrying about the times when you’ll be entertaining guests.

moka cups will produce 4 cups of espresso coffee. But to achieve this you must use less water and coffee. It will take you a bit of time before you manage to achieve the desired taste by altering the proportions. Once you’re done, clean-up is easy thanks to the compartment design; just unscrew it, wash it, and get on with your day. The Italian made ‘Moka express’ range is so popular that they made it available in 1, 3, 6, and 9 cup options – so choose the right size for your preference and you’ll start your day with the perfect amount of coffee. For Home Grounds UK team, the best stovetop espresso maker is the OG amongst the Moka pots: the original Bialetti Moka Express. With the large range of cup sizes, it’s suited for everyone. It’s cheap, it’s made to last, and you can’t beat the consistency it delivers. Moka pots are simple to use and make quality coffee, but they can only make a fixed amount.

How moka pot size is measuredAll three require multiple steps by hand, while the Moka Pot can simply be filled with water and grounds, set on the stovetop, and left to do its thing.
