Brewing FFOX coffee using a Moka pot is a fantastic way to make a strong, rich coffee. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you achieve the perfect brew:
Equipment and Ingredients:
- Moka pot (also known as a stovetop espresso maker)
- FFOX coffee in Moka Pot Grind
- Clean, filtered water
- Stove or heat source
- Spoon for stirring (optional)
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preparation: Disassemble your Moka pot into its three parts: the base, the filter basket, and the top chamber. Fill the base with 180ml of water
- Grind the Coffee: Measure approximately 18-20 grams of FFOX coffee powder.
- Add Coffee to the Filter Basket: Fill the filter basket with the ground coffee. Level it off but do not tamp it down. Make sure there is no coffee on the rim to ensure a proper seal.
- Assemble the Moka Pot: Place the filter basket into the base. Screw the top chamber onto the base firmly but not too tightly. Ensure there is a good seal.
- Heat the Moka Pot: Place the Moka pot on a stove over medium heat. Make sure the handle is not directly over the heat source to avoid melting. Leave the lid open initially to observe the brewing process.
- Brewing Process: As the water in the base heats up, pressure will push it up through the coffee grounds and into the top chamber. Once you hear a hissing or bubbling sound and see a steady stream of coffee, close the lid.
- Remove from Heat: Once the coffee stream slows down to a sputter, remove the Moka pot from the heat. This prevents the coffee from becoming bitter due to overheating.
- Serve: Pour the brewed coffee into a cup. Stirring the coffee in the top chamber before serving can help mix the different layers for a more consistent flavour
Enjoy your rich and flavourful FFOX coffee brewed with a Moka pot!
