Haven’t really used a mocha pot before, so I’m experimenting a little to find the right grind settings and ratios for my taste. Normally brew espresso on a flair classic. Went with this more modern design from bialetti because it also works on induction stoves.

    Add a bit of oil as a “thermal paste”/interface between the adapter and the pot. I use a tiny frying pan as an adapter for my Turkish cevze and it’s night and day.

      Interesting. But I don’t know I’d be willing to add to the cleaning routine.

        I mean, it’s just a quick soapy sponge wipe and you should clean your moka pot after each use anyway.

          Cleaning the pot is done with water alone, so I can do fine. Anything with soap rubs my eczema the wrong way.
