/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Durrrr, coffee filter trimmed to fit?

Take some tin foil, trim to fit the base of your filter cup. Poke holes through it with a needle to suit your needs.

You can thank me when you are all caffeinated up.

Also for next time: espresso coffee is too fine for moka, you want it ground somewhere between espresso and american drip coffee (slightly on the fine side).

At first glance, I thought OP's pic was some sort of awesome wearable coffee brewing system you wore like a jacket.

>>342859
Bollocks it is, I put Espresso in my moka pot all the time!

>>342859
>>342862
Yeah, I've bought this coffee before and had no problems before.

>>342842
No filter paper, but
>>342847
tin foil it is! Bless your soul.

A perfect cup of espresso in the morning and another satisfied customer--let the weekend commence.

>>342871
Glad to have been of service, enjoy your breakfast.

I tip my glass to you.

Italinfag here, just to let you know that if you make coffee with moke, you don't call it "espresso".
It's just coffee.

What's your moka OP, Bialetti?
What coffee do you have, Lavazza?

Fine, if you want to get technical, Espresso machines create espresso at about 9 bar, verses the 1.5 bar of a moka pot. I still get a damn good cup of coffee out of it, better than the local costa coffee can do with their "expresso", also known as hot river mud.

that looks like a percolator which is the worse style of brewing coffee ever conceived of. french press all the way

>>342943
Percolators have the water poured over the grounds, moka pots force the water upwards through the grounds at a high pressure and temperature, well over 100C, producing a superior cup.

They produce top-quality coffee, only matched by that of a machine and a skilled operator. I spit on your crappy french press.

>>342945
Espresso and moka are for shit tier coffee. Get a real man's roast (Light to medium), grind it coarse and put it in a french press, drink it black.

NOTHING is better then this.

>>342957
Going to have to disagree with you there Jim. I would always take the OP's style over a french press. No matter how long its brewed its just a bit wishy washy. But then again its all down to personal preference.

>>342958
Not true, my opinions are all also scientific facts. You just prefer quantifiably bad coffee.

AS long as its not decaf I'll drink anything, sure I enjoy a fancy cup now and then, but I"m not a snob.

ITS TIME FOR THE PERCOLATOR

>>342957
>light to medium roast coffee
Coffee-hating faggot detected. You probably drown it in flavored nondairy creamer, too.

Oh look everyone, it's another Internet Expert gracing us with his infinite, immutable wisdom! Everybody bow down to his greatness! Would you like your dick sucked now, sir?

Screw french presses and their shitty filters.

Vue master race here. Enjoying my 9-15 bar 190-210 temperature selection.

Italianon is right.
Coffee is serious shit in Italy, bigger than the vatican and/or the mafia.

>>342848
I had this problem too recently, try putting in slightly fewer grounds and if it still fails to rise, put your mokka on a cold surface or under cold water for a while, then reheat.

that would be a 2 not a 4. ahem..

Starbucks employee here.

Depending on what kind of coffee you want, choose the moka or a french press. A french press is used for TASTING the quality of the coffee, EG all of the flavor notes and such.

A moka is for espresso like coffee with a stronger concentration of caffine (The way the water goes through the grounds forces every bit out as opposed to a french press)

>>342957
If I see you put a light coffee in the french press I will pour that shit right in your eye.

This fight is pretty stupid over french press and moka. Like a really smooth and enjoyable cup? French press.
Want a quick and easy caffine buzz with a nice dark taste, moka.

>>342828
Check the seal on the filter and the top, alot of times there is a plastic right that will fall out and fuck up your ablity for the water to get proper suction to go up the filter stem .
Keep your beans ground somewhat course, (go to starbucks and ask them to grind your pound at a 6 setting on the machine)

Then enjoy that should solve it all

coffee master race
