☕ Brentwood Electric Moka Pot Espresso Machine: Efficient 6-Cup Brewer in Sleek Black Design Review

We bought this coffee maker to take with us on holiday. Coffee is sometimes very tasty, but not always properly brewed. The worst thing is that eternity is brewing. Let's just say we can go and come back for breakfast, and sometimes he's not done cooking. It will brew a little, stop and then brew 2-3 more jerks until it runs out.

Part of the problem with the leak was solved when a colleague threw away the filter disk that was lying on top of the coffee in the main filter. It stopped leaking during the brew after removing it, but it…

I've been making coffee with this machine for a week and no matter how small adjustments I make, it still doesn't give a satisfactory result. The main problem seems to be the distance between the coffee and the top chamber filter - they don't sit right next to each other like in a moka pot. There is a small "lid" with holes that should fit the coffee while it's in the funnel filter, but it just sits there and allows the pressure of the water entering the funnel to lift it and the coffee grounds
