makes really good coffee actually esp if u buy a grind made for the moka! and add boiling or hot water to the bottom chamber (sorry italians). plus it’s just really sweet looking and ritualistic :) not bitter at all unless you are doing it a bit wrong. i like feeling like i can keep on making something better and better!

In the morning I fill the water canister to the bolt, spoon the grounds into the filter, twist the top on, turn the stove to medium-low, and wait a few minutes. It’s methodical and simple and reminds me of Madrid.

I made the mistake of getting addicted to caffeine as a sophomore in high school, and my jobs as a barista over the years has only exacerbated this dependency. Now if I skip a morning cup, I experience Phineas Gage levels of a headache. With this whole COVID-19 thing, I had to get good at making my own coffee at home, and while I love me some undiluted cold brew concentrate, I do not need to tell any New Englander it is about to get hella chilly out. For hot coffee needs, I had purchased a Moka Pot a few years ago because I thought it looked cool and loved that you did not need to always be buying filters or pods to keep using it. My cups kept coming out tasting muddy though, so the thing has been taking a sabbatical in the back of my cupboard for years. The other week, however, I fell down a James Hoffman YouTube hole and was inspired enough by his very informative Moka Pot video to bring my girl back out into the light. I used some shamefully old pre ground beans and this cool looking thing still managed to turn out one very strong, delicious cup of coffee that I would pay real dollars for.
