4.1. Početno čišćenje

Before using your Moka Express for the first time, it is recommended to clean all components thoroughly. Disassemble the coffee maker and wash all parts with warm water and mild detergent. Rinse well and dry completely. Perform 2-3 brewing cycles with only water (no coffee) to prime the unit and remove any manufacturing residues.

  2. Screw the upper chamber onto the lower chamber, ensuring a tight seal.

5.1. Kuvanje kafe

  1. Napunite donju komoru: Unscrew the upper chamber from the lower chamber. Fill the lower chamber with cold water up to the level of the safety valve. Do not exceed this level.
  2. Dodajte mljevenu kafu: Insert the filter funnel into the lower chamber. Fill the filter funnel with medium-fine ground coffee. Do not tamp kafu. Pažljivo poravnajte kafu.
  3. Assemble the Moka Express: Screw the upper chamber firmly onto the lower chamber, ensuring a tight seal to prevent steam leakage.

  5. Proces kuhanja: Heat the water slowly. As the water heats, pressure builds, forcing hot water up through the coffee grounds and into the upper chamber. You will hear a gurgling sound as the coffee begins to fill the upper chamber.
  6. Skloniti sa vatre: Once the upper chamber is full of coffee and you hear a distinct gurgling sound, remove the Moka Express from the heat source immediately to prevent over-extraction and a burnt taste.
