Moka Pots

This is a picture of my two moka pots. My regular readers may remember an article that I wrote on my blog last year when I first got my moka pot. This going to be more of an instructional post with photographs of my moka pots on the way, not necessarily relating to the instructions. Follow this for the perfect coffee:
1. Unscrew the moka pot, and fill the bottom portion with water. Make sure not to fill past the pressure release open valve.
2. Fill the funnel portion with ground coffee. Tamp down slightly.

3.Place the funnel into the bottom portion of the moka pot.
4.Screw on the top half of the moka pot, and place the whole thing on
a heat source (like a stove burner).
5.After a few minutes, the water will boil and steam will come up through the coffee grounds, filling the top portion of the pot with espresso.
6.Pour and enjoy.
