I finally found a way to get rid of that rubber smell and taste from the Moka Pot gasket. 00:00 Intro 00:11 The Problem 00:59 Is This Solution? 01:33 The Solution! 02:21 Suggestions
Hi, today I made coffee in moka pot for the first time, and since I had a rubber gasket I used your technique from the video. Thank you for the tip with boiling in vinegar, it worked perfectly.
Thank you! I kept my moka pot for to long on the burning stove. And there us a flavour of rubber or kinda burnt rubber. So I am using your method to solve it and enjoy my coffee !🎉
Thanks for the advice! I bought my 3 cup Bialetti moka pot and have been disappointed to find out that rubber gasket inside. Before I used the La Cafeteria moka pot - it had silicone gasket, so much convenient! But it was 6 cups, and I need smaller pot. Will try this method now, but would prefer to have Bialetti to use silicone for the gaskets.
New Subscriber here! Best coffee Channel by far and my favorite! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I have a question, can I use a mixture of vinegar water to clean my Espresso Machine? ( it’s a La Pavoni Esperto Abile) Love my machine! I’ve also been making coffee in my Moka pot for more than 30 years now (using the good old Italian method) after watching your videos, I will make a few adjustments 👍Thanks again! Cheers from Canada
Thanks so much for your support and thanks for the nice words. To be honest, I never tried it to use vinegar in espresso machine. I work for an espresso machine company so I have unlimited access to proper product. The problem in the espresso machine is the internal parts. I will ask the technician team and I will report to you.
Bought my first moka pot. When I did 2 rounds of water boiling, I noticed the rubber melted onto the lip of the filter. Disgusting. I bought a silicone gasket to replace it and now I'm trying to scrape out the rubber melted onto the upper chamber. It's wild that some people are ok with drinking rubber.
Not sure when Bialetti changed to silicon rings, the one I received yesterday came with silicon. Harder to get it out, but completely neutral in terms of taste, and probably closes better as rubber.
They already start to produce them with silicon since the last year. Then depends on from which batch of moka you are buying. This definitely will avoid the problem of rubber taste and durability
Same. I got mine at Christmas a little over a year ago. I just replaced my original gasket with a silicone one, which had no off taste at all. As a bonus, it fits a little less tight into the threads, so it’s easier to take out for cleaning.
Yes, you got lucky. That's why Bialetti recently changed gaskets with better rubber and now they fully convert them in silicon. But of course you can still find old batches with low quality rubber around the world.
@@MaurizioMoscatelli-photo dipende da quello che vuoi ottenere. Con quello di carta assorbe anche gli oli del caffè e la tazza viene più pulita. Con il metallo fitto gli oli passano e rendono la bevanda più piena. Probabilmente qualche residuo passa, ma sicuramente molto meno che con il filtro normale
