The Moka Pot

When it comes to coffee, I’ve always been a bit of a French press loyalist. There’s something about the simplicity of it—the ritual of boiling water, waiting for the brew, and plunging down the filter. But recently, I found myself intrigued by the Moka pot. That iconic stovetop coffee maker has been a staple in Italian households for decades, and I thought, “Why not give it a go?” Little did I know, this small contraption would forever change how I enjoy my morning cup.
