I feel under represented
That's because you're clearly a BSD user
This
True. Very classy, kinda annoying and also fancy. Kinda complex but simple concept behind it.
You have to repeatedly clean up the mess but its also rather easy to shake out. So semi automatic updates.
I feel like an idiot for taking so long to get one. After i brought it, a friend regifted me a milk frother. Zap the milk for 30 seconds and whip and you've got a barista drink at home.
The moka pot design is small, efficient, and doesn't scale. So some flavor of embedded distro?
It scales great actually. Have you never seen one of those mini pots that only make enough for one small cup?
bam! this is what i came here for. love my mokapot!
Couldn't really make it work for me, gas stove and a moka pot seems too finicky. So I just do pourover
I did use it on a gas stove (brought it with me when was on vacations at my parents lol) and totally works
I think yours specifically might have a design issue
I doubt it. The moka pot in general is finicky. Unless you put milk or something into the coffee I find it rather harsh and I don't like milk in coffee.
This is 100 % a matter of technique, I can make a good cup of coffee with it. I just need to dial in grind and ratios right, but even then it's hard to control the temperature. By the time I go to that sputering hissy phase it becomes harsh and very bitter.
In general it's hard for me to find the sweet spot between battery acid and coal juice with a moka pot. Pourover is much more forgiving and consistent.
Huh! we definitely don't have the same taste, as I only ever drink coffee with milk, and as such i don't care much about the exact taste that comes out of moka pot
Thanks for you feedback!
The Ol' reliable. Takes a bit of work, but the result is great. Debian stable.
I use a Kerrigan, but I'm a debian guy.
