About this deal

One Moka cup equals about 2 fluid ounces in American measurements. Keep in mind that exact measurements can vary. However, let’s take a look at the standard cup chart for a Moka pot: 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. To brew some delicious coffee, fill the bottom chamber with water all the way up to the safety valve, insert the metal filter and pour some ground coffee into the basket (without pressing), then put the upper chamber on top and place the pot on the hob. Wait for the coffee to start gurgling as it rises and reaches the collecting chamber: once that’s done, take the pot off the heat and enjoy! A 12-cup pot, like the Bialetti Moka Express 12 cup, won’t be the right choice for everyone. However, this could be the choice for you if you like to split a pot between a few people in the morning. A 12-cup pot is going to produce up to 25 fluid ounces per brew.

The best size moka pot for a single person depends on how much coffee you drink and in which style. If a double espresso or 8oz. mug is enough for you, a 2 cup (90ml) moka pot is a good size. For people that need/want more, a three cup (130ml) moka pot will be more suitable. Thanks for taking your time to read our review of the popular Bialetti Moka Express 3 cup coffee maker. Please note that this is a small coffee maker and will make up to 3 espresso shots. If you prefer a mug of coffee, then this will make enough for a strong espresso, and you can then add water to fill up your mug.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. As you can see the quoted amount of cups doesn’t directly translate into the amount of coffee you brew. The quoted amount of brew produced divided by the quoted amount of cups is different for every size so the amount of cups is just a very rough indication. Of course if you regularly drink 5 espressos to get started in the morning, you should size up. Although you might want to take a look at your sleeping habits if you need that. Before using the coffeemaker for the first time, it’s a good idea to wash all the parts in hot water first. The Bialetti Moka Express is NOT dishwasher safe. The other detracting factor that goes along with getting a pot that’s too big for your daily needs is that your heating time is going to be a lot longer than it needs to be when you’re using a larger-than-necessary pot to make your coffee every day. Choose A Size Based On Your Daily Coffee Consumption

Bialetti's distinctive 8-sided aluminium pot features a 3-part system that uses pressurised steam to push the boiling water up through the coffee grounds: a lower water chamber, a filter coffee basket and a top chamber for the brewed coffee.

About Bialetti Moka Express 3-cup Black

There may come a time when you need to replace the rubber gasket or filter on your pot. Doing so is quite easy. After replacing the rubber seal, you should do a few “dry brews” using just hot water to prime your pot. Some people find that a new seal can impact the taste of the coffee if the pot isn’t primed properly before the first “real” brew. The Final Word: Moke Pot Size Guide Loosely fill the funnel with your favourite ground coffee. (We recommend a medium-fine grind. Medium-fine will feel gritty when rubbed between your fingers, not powdery). There’s no need to use soaps or detergents when cleaning your Moka pot daily. In fact, just rinsing your pot with hot water before wiping the interior dry after each use will be enough to keep it clean. Periodic “deep cleans” can be done simply by using a gentle brush and a drop of vinegar to scrub the inside of your pot. One size for each need: Moka Express sizes are measured in Espresso Cups, coffee can be enjoyed in Espresso Cups or in larger containers
