    Moka pots come in these sizes: 1 cup ( Expresso size / 2 Fluid ounces ) ; 3 cup ( expresso size / 6.5 fluid ounces ) ; 6 cup ( Expresso size / 10 Fluid Ounces ) ; 9 cup ( expresso size / 18.5 Fluid ounces ).
    A superior silicone gasket is avaliable to replace the factory rubber gasket. The Factory rubber gasket should be replaced with the superior silicone one.

    You can also clean that funnel container (if construction allows it, but it usually does). Just use the wooden or plastic stick and _gently and slowly_ push out the plate from inside the funnel trying not to bend it. If moka pot was not maintained for a long time, or not always cleaned right after brewing the residue will collect there and with time will turn into dense burned coffee layer.
    I stopped using my mothers moka pot and moved to jezva because it always felt like it was burned and sour, and only after I tried to deep clean it one last time, I noticed this charcoal goo clogged inside the funnel. Now pot is clean and coffee tastes normal again.

      Bialetti sells spare parts, including the funnel. When the rubber gasket looks that dark brown it’s best to replace it. The silicone version gasket is soak it overnight in water/vinegar 1/1

    To clean inside the pot use a half and half mix of water and white vinegar and then pretend you are making coffee , ie put it on the heat and percolate . Then repeat with just water until the water gathered in the collection bowl at the top is clean . Then use it to make coffee as normal . ..... not my advise , but gleaned from elsewhere on youtube ..... seems like good advise and I will by doing this work soon .

    I took out the rubber seal and put all the other parts into the dishwasher. When I removed the moka pot, the inside of the carafe was tarnished. As I wiped it out with a paper towel, I noticed black on the towel and on my fingers. Eventually, I think that I removed all the black tarnish after washing the pieces with vinegar and baking soda. My question is, did I ruin the pot? Can I clean it as shown in the video and no longer worry about the return of the black?

    • @Lelitascubankitchen
      @Lelitascubankitchen  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s not dishwasher safe. Moka are made with Aluminum just like Calderos so when you dishwash them it removes the coating and turns black. I do prefer stainless steel Moka pots because they’re dishwasher safe.

      @@browner420 the moka express is washed with water ONLY and a soft cloth used only for this! NO soap or dishwasher or any other stuff that can alter the coffee taste!! NO Brillo or any abrasive material should be used to clean the Moka Express EVER !!! All this if one want to taste good, real, Italian coffee!! Any other “flavoured” method will alter the coffee taste! Once in a while it can be through cleaned by separating every part and soaked in water and white vinegar ( vinegar evaporate without leaving taste).
      Those instructions are in the manual included in the box when you buy the Moka!! Of course there are “ Moka “ imitations out there, so , I can't “express” about those ones!

    Not recommended for daily use Moka Pots. For a decorative Moka pot, this is an acceptable way to clean your pot.
    For daily use and consumption I do not recommend this technique, especially on the inside of the pot. The 2 main reasons are:
    1: You WANT the seasoning on the pot. just as with a cast iron pan, hand wash with water, NO SOAP, is just fine.
    2: The citrus is caustic to the aluminum AND moreso to the Zink coating that is often applied to the insides of most quality Moka pots to prevent aluminum leaching into your coffee as you cook it. Adding the salt as an abrasive only wears the finish and protective coatings away faster.
    There other other reasons as well... but these 2 are the most important.
    If you're going to be drinking from it... Handwashing without soap, and boiling a run of water thru it if not used in a long time is enough.
    Learn to appreciate the patina and enhanced flavoring of the seasoning as it naturally occurs... weather over an electric or gas stove, or, from daily coffee over an open fire... (both in my case), and it will serve you dependably for generations. : )

    My only critique would be calling it an espresso maker. Moka pots do not make espresso. They do make a stronger brew of coffee than most other coffee makers. There is some pressure, which is why they extract more flavors than even a French press would do. However, they can't reach the proper pressure level to be called espresso.
