Bialetti New Venus Italian Coffee Maker (Induction

Es mejor calentar la caldera (la parte de abajo de la cafetera) y poner agua caliente antes de poner el filtro y cerrar. Yo pongo la caldera en la estufa, en la hornilla mas pequeña a fuego muy bajo mientras caliento 260 ml de agua en el micro (se pierden como 40 ml en el proceso), cuando el agua está lista la vierto en la caldera, pongo el filtro y me ayudo con un trapo o guantes para cerrar la cafetera sin quemarme. No es necesario que aprietes mucho al cerrar, solo un poco después de que sientas la resistencia que ocasiona el empaque. De qué tanto le aprietes depende lo que te va a durar el empaque y no hace ninguna diferencia en el café que obtienes. Solo asegúrate de que esté un poco apretado para que no se salga el vapor. UPDATE: I am posting this to help others with finding replacement gaskets for their Bialetti Venus 6-cup moka pot. I wanted to plan ahead and have a couple gaskets on hand when my gasket eventually fails. After researching, i selected this product which, as stated in their description, is a genuine Bialetti replacement — although the gaskets are made of RUBBER, not silicone as was supplied in my original Venus moka pot. Die Größenangaben finde ich jedoch lächerlich. Für eine Person ausreichend, man kann damit eine Tasse Kaffee machen. Mehr nicht. Daher auch einen Stern Abzug.The valve is solid - no issues. Some people have complained about a whistling noise; i can state that if you follow the instructions you will not have a problem. The valve itself is manufactured in Italy. As others mentioned, on an electric stovetop it is a little slower to cook than the equivalent aluminum (on a gas stove I can't tell the difference) One size for each need: Bialetti Venus sizes are measured in Espresso Cups, coffee can be enjoyed in Espresso Cups or in larger containers The inner gasket and screen are very secure. The overall fit and finish (and YES it is made in China) are top notch. I’m very impressed with the quality. The design is very appealing and the unit is compact; it will be a constant companion on my counter.

Bialetti - New Venus, stainless steel espresso coffee machine

If I had to buy another, I would buy stainless again but I might go up to a 9 cup but use less water.

From the brand

Yo solo uso café de tueste medio porque no me gusta tan tostado y el sabor es muy bueno. No se parece en nada al americano que obtengo del mismo café (con la cafetera normalita de goteo y el molido adecuado) ni al sabor del expreso con ese mismo café. Es otra forma de preparar café, sabe diferente y si te gusta tener mas opciones para preparar tu café; vas a disfrutar muchísimo usando esta cafetera. Predominantly Robusta India blend gives an intense taste and a full-bodied coffee. A dark roasting accentuates notes reminding of toasted bread and cocoa. Experience the Italian way of preparing a tasteful coffee with the Bialetti Venus Pot, with its unique shape and long-lasting materials. The historic gentleman with the moustache on its front is a guarantee of the originality and quality of a Bialetti product. Venus is available in 4 sizes: 2-cup 2,8 oz espresso ; 4-cup 5,7 oz espresso ; 6 –cup 7,9 oz, 10-cup 15,5 Oz If your beans are ground more finely, the brew time will take a bit longer because the steam extraction is forced through a more dense grind. DO NOT TAMP THE COFFEE OR RUSH THE BREW PROCESS. 2-3 minutes actual brew time once the coffee starts percolating out of the top chamber port is key. Espresso grind may be too fine for this pot. It should be a bit more coarse but still finely ground. Experiment and take notes on the settings for your particular grinder.

Venus - Bialetti

We had a moka pot, some in house brand from a popular cookware store, before but it was hit and miss. Sometimes it makes good coffee, other time not so much. More misses than hit. Venus is the ultimate combination of tradition and innovation: the original coffee maker to prepare an authentically aromatic Italian coffee, in a unique design shape also available for induction cooktops. At a glance, it looked like any other moka pot. There’s a kind of preciousness to brewing moka pot coffee that I love. It’s more ritualistic than flipping a switch and having your beans prepared in an electric Keurig (no shade; ILY too), and the concentrated flavor is perfect for people who love the smell of espresso, but always find it a little too intense in their bellies. The moka pot brewing method, which was invented and perfected by signore Alfonso Bialetti nearly 100 years ago, creates a flavor profile somewhere in-between the drinkability of drip coffee, and the more assertive aromatic notes of espresso. I've been using the classic aluminum mokapots for 15 years and have mostly loved them. But they do get nasty after a while and they're hard to clean. (impossible to clean once you've melted the rubber gasket) So I tried a 6-cup stainless version and I like it a lot:How to prepare coffee: fill the boiler up to the safety valve with water, insert the funnel tank and add the ground coffee for moka without pressing; close the moka pot and place it on the hob. Wait for coffee to gurgle as it rises to the collector (upper chamber), turn off the gas and, finally, enjoy your delicious coffee! Venus is the ultimate combination of tradition and innovation: the original induction-ready Coffee Maker, preparing an authentically aromatic Italian coffee, in a unique design shape Made with 100% Colombia Excelso Beans brings notes of flowers and dried fruits to the palate, exalted by a slow medium roasting.
