Finally Italian coffee in the US

Well, first of all, I'm Italian, let's start with that. I don't blame the American coffee but when I first came here it was kind of a shock. I've always missed Italian coffee, so I bought this coffee pot. It takes a special type of person to drink moka coffee because it's stronger and more concentrated than American coffee and just tastes different. Especially with mugs, don't think that Moka makes 6 American mugs. When they say 6 cups, they mean cups of espresso. Yes, because Moka makes the espresso you know. In any case. When I finally received the Moka it was absolutely perfect, the box was completely sealed, made in Italy and I was very happy because I could drink my coffee again and again. If you are reading this review, let me give you some tips on how to make the best coffee with a Moka. 1. - Only use espresso coffee like Lavazza, you can grind your own coffee but make sure you do it as well as possible. Buying good coffee from a big brand guarantees you a great end result. 2.- FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS, MAKE AND THROW AT LEAST 3 MOQ BEFORE DRINKING COFFEE. "But it's a waste of coffee, I can drink that when I go to work and blablabla blablabla." NO, DOES IT WORK OK? Do you need to remove tissue debris and the process takes a long time, or do you want to drink some aluminum? I do not think so. 3. - Hand wash, do not use soap, just water. And especially the central chamber where coffee appears, do not clean it too much. The coffee residues on the bottom ensure that the moka retains its aroma and that the coffee becomes more and more intense from time to time. The first cup is light coffee and the rest is too strong. Believe me. 5. When you have served coffee and the moka is empty, DO NOT WASH IT IMMEDIATELY! Leave it for a few hours, forget it. In this way, the moka absorbs the aroma of the coffee, which becomes more intense and enveloping over time, and the moka itself cools down safely. I'm just saying that if I need to make another morning coffee, I'll clean my moka the next morning. Of course if you use it from time to time let it cool down and wash it, I'm not saying the Moka doesn't need cleaning at all. So I hope you enjoyed my review (if so let me know by clicking the button below) and I hope you enjoy moka coffee as much as I love it. Follow my advice and everything will be perfect. Thank you!
