Good to know for people who have never used stovetop espresso makers, but the 2oz / cup terminology is pretty standard. The "6-cup" size is perfect for two people.

And yeah, the aluminum ones won't work on induction. It's a shame IKEA discontinued the RADIG and METALLISK stainless steel moka pots. The latter in particular is my favorite, though I think half their production was recalled when they switched from brass to stainless safety valves (mine's brass, thankfully).

I bought this 6 years ago for 5 bucks on Amazon and I only used it once and to be honest I really didn't know how to work it but it's still sitting on my kitchen cabinet.

Fine ground coffee goes into the funnel. Not espresso powder fine, but not as coarse as french press.

I typically boil a kettle of water to speed up the process. Hot water goes in the bottom chamber, then the funnel of coffee, then screw the top chamber tightly to avoid leaks.

Turn the stove to 20-30% and let the magic happen. As the water heats up, it gets pulled through the coffee into the top chamber. Slower is better as it avoids burning the flavor and makes the pull nice and slow. You don't want a sputtering geyser. It may take 6-8 mins for the process to begin. If the base gets too hot and you get a geyser, then it's okay to run lukewarm water over it to slow it down.

Once the sputtering is almost over or stops, then you're done! It's okay if not all the water from the bottom chamber flows to the top. Enjoy! Don't drink the silt.

This is not true espresso because it doesn't produce enough pressure. It does produce a very strong concentrated coffee that makes great Lattes though.

ah, came here to recommend the IKEA stainless steel moka as inexpensive alternatives to these aluminum ones. I personally wouldn't risk it with aluminum regardless if the link is conclusive or not.

Unfortunately, I don't think IKEA makes any moka pots at all anymore, let alone stainless.

I have zero issue with "espresso powder fine" in my RADIG or METALLISK (both stainless) and I get virtually no silt whatsoever. I brew at 6/10 on my induction range without burn and it never sputters, just the expected steam.

Maybe these aluminum versions or electric/gas ranges are more finicky? I don't know. I keep an old Bodum in our camping gear, but brewing on camp stove is always a little different than a range at home.

For those who have induction, get a small cast iron skillet and place the moka pot on top of the skillet to heat it up.
