BBC - h2g2 - Ways to Make Good Coffee (#)

„The brewed coffee is collected in the top half of the pot. When all the water is gone from the lower half, the gurgling dies away and the coffee is ready.The espresso coffee made in these stove-top pots can be bitter, because the water is boiling when it passes through the grounds.Stove-top espresso makers are available in a few different sizes. They should always be used to make a full pot as they do not operate well when half full. After making a pot, you must wait a few minutes for the pot to cool down before you can use it again, so they are not really suitable for making large amounts of espresso.“

Selecting a Coffee Brewing Method (#)

„Espresso: There are two different types of espresso makers: the stove top model and the household electric counter top model. The later resembles the large espresso makers seen in all the European bars and American coffee houses. They force hot water through grounds directly into your waiting demitasse cup.“

„Often called moka pots, these nonelectric, stovetop "espresso makers" resemble narrow-waisted coffee pots, and they, too, don't brew espresso because they don't generate pressure. They boil water in a bottom chamber, after which it climbs through filtered grounds into an upper chamber, or the user flips the device (with the boiling water) over so the water drains though the coffee.“

It's better than the regular stove top espresso makers because there's no guessing about if the coffee is ready. It's easy to clean, plus it's a beautiful appliance and great conversation piece.--This text refers toan alternate option.“

„I’ve used a stove-top (Bialetti) for a long time, but am tired of inconsistent results and having to stand over it to make sure the coffee doesn’t overbrew.  (I also don’t see ‘stove tops’ as real ‘espresso’ makers since they lack a pump but that’s another topic.)“
