How does a cheap $20 moka pot compare to a $3000 espresso machine? Stovetop espresso made from a moka pot is not same as the coffee made with a high pressure espresso machine, but… can it be good enough? To find out I’m going to employ some moka pot brewing best practices to compare a moka pot espresso to the real thing and put the brews to a side-by-side test.

I prepared coffee in a mokapot for myself (personal procedure) and expresso for a friend who knows expresso very well. By mistake, he took my cup of coffee made in the mokapot and encouraged me, "what a nice expresso you made" I answered that he took my cup in which I made the coffee at the mokapot :)))))))))))))

Many people make this mistake. To make matters worse, the box of the Bialetti pot says Moka Express Pot. I realize express does not make reference to espresso but still, it confuses people.

Fully agree, Moka pot (Bialleti) coffee is not real espresso, thought Italians may still call it espresso because it is concentrated and you drink it in two sips. I've been having Moka coffee daily for the last 10 years, it's convenient & my kitchen is rather small. I only buy ground Lavazza Qualita Rossa since it has a chocolate flavour. I add a bit of oat milk and half a teaspoon of honey. At this point it is so good I can't be convinced to buy a real espresso machine. When going out, yes, it is real espresso that I'm ordering, however some restaurants can still mess it up regardless.

I have two options for cooking in Moka Pot. With the use of room temperature and hot water. 1. Grind medium or medium fine. Cook on low heat, if it flows too quickly, it is better to reduce the gas a little, and remove it when lighter coffee flows. You don't have to wait for an eruption, because in this case my coffee came out bitter. When the flow stops, stir. 2. When pouring hot water, in this case, you can remove the gas when the eruption starts.

The Bialetti Brikka produces a large crema-like foam; especially the newer generation that has an upgraded valve in the top chamber. Use Cafe Bustelo or Medaglia D'Oro - both by the Rowland Group if using pre-ground. They have Robusta beans as part of the blend and the Robusta is key to producing the crema/foam. Bialetti recommends a 70/30 Robusta/Arabica mix.

I do it all the time bro. Saves some gas and makes better brew, cuz pressure is not ramping up that high. Also I cut the heat off when coffee starts to come out. Cut off time depends on the size, bigger pot - more inertia. Experiment. No matter what you do, there shoudn`t be a Yellowstone in the kitchen, just a steady calm flow, like a woman`s orgasm ;)

@@deathkid411 This is untrue. I have been super-fine grinding beans for my stove top rig for over 40 years. The secret is to press the ground into the basket a bit at a time using the edge of a spoon. This way you do not restrict the passage of water. I have had plenty of espresso from expensive machines and none compare to what I make myself.

I noticed some inaccuracies in your video. If I may… • Grind: Moka Pot manufacturers recommend a medium fine grind (or a little finer than drip grind). Not a medium coarse as you state. Medium fine is how Moka Pot coffee is sold throughout Italy. • Pre-heating: Pre-heating/pre-boiling water offers no benefit. Boiling time is roughly the same whether in the Moka Pot or in a kettle. Extraction time is the same since extraction only occurs as water passes through the coffee. Room temperature water is also the manufacturer's recommendation. • Stopping extraction: Simply remove the Moka Pot from heat. Extraction will stop nearly immediately. No need to fumble with rinsing the Moka Pot under the tap - which will result in near unavoidable spillage. • Noteworthy: The vast majority of Italians don't employ any of your "best practices" in their daily routines and they've been enjoying their, un-bitter, Moka Pot espresso for nearly a hundred years. It is highly doubtful any Italian would settle for bitter Moka Pot espresso as you allude. • Conclusion: Yes, espresso machine espresso is better. However, Moka Pot espresso is very nearly the same. Most people inexperienced with espresso would be hard pressed to tell the difference. Which is why Italians have been making Moka Pot espresso for almost one hundred years. • Most importantly: None of the so called "best practices" improve Moka Pot espresso flavor. As previously mentioned, it is highly doubtful the entire population of Italy would have been settling for bitter Moka Pot espresso for nearly the last one hundred years. Of course, in the end, you can make your Moka Pot espresso as you like. Here are some Moka Pot espresso videos I've found very helpful. Hopefully you will as well.

Pre heating DOES have benefit based on the coffee you're using. For darker roast, it doesn't matter. However it DOES make a difference with lighter roasts which require a higher water temp to properly extract and shouldn't be kept over the burner while the water heats.
@frankhughes001
@frankhughes001 6 месяцев назад
@@spaceracer23 Water boils at 100°C/212°F (law of physics). Boiling water, and the resulting pressure buildup, are required for the Moka Pot to work. Pre-heating doesn't make the water a "higher temp". You can't change the laws of physics. Pre-heating Moka Pot water has ZERO benefit and makes ZERO difference.

what has the higher caffeine level moka vs espresso
@spaceracer23
@spaceracer23 6 месяцев назад
That's going to depend on the coffee you're using. If you're using the same coffee and getting the proper extraction from both the moka pot and the espresso machine, then you would probably be getting more caffeine per gram of coffee from the machine. However this is kind of like asking if turning the AC off in your car saves gas. Yeah, maybe a little, but other factors make a much bigger difference.

moka pot isn't expresso though? I'm also not sure why you didn't just use as moka pot one size smaller that would at least give you comparable quantities.
@spaceracer23
@spaceracer23 6 месяцев назад
Respectfully, the quantity doesn't matter. You can simply brew less in the bigger pot if you wish. However it still won't be the same as an espresso machine because it can't match the pressure. What matters is getting the proper extraction out of the ground coffee. In a machine, that's done with pressure. In a moka pot, that's done with a higher volume of water. The smaller moka pot will have less water, but it will also be trying to extract from less coffee. Ultimately, big moka pots and little moka pots should produce close to the same flavor if the coffee to water ratio stays the same.
