Re: In praise of espresso
Hey Bryan!
I found it pretty bitter at first if I remember correctly, it got better after more use and more trial and error, Usually I put it on at about medium heat (over gas flame) and then watch when the coffee starts to come out and pretty much when the bottom is covered I cut the heat in half so it doesn't start to overboil and spray out. It seems to give me a better crema on top this way, I fully cut the heat when it gets to a certain point when it's almost done and the last of it just kind of foams out.
That's what I meant by kind of finicky with the heat...

Anybody have any good tips for using a moka pot (like the counts)? My coffee comes out pretty bitter. I've tried doing different grinds/heats but can't hit a good combo.
