As a first-time buyer of this type of coffee maker, I must say it's been quite an interesting experience. My immediate impression of the Moka Pot has to be its convenience: heated water in the bottom of the brewer, ground coffee in the filter basket, a few minutes on the stove, and fresh espresso out in the cup. It might be hard to perform the brewing according to the instructions given in the package at first, but with 3 minutes of online tutorials, the concept will be grasped relatively quickly. For the coffee itself, the pot delivers a quick and exquisite brew, it does not taste any different than something found at a local cafe. A great beginner coffee maker to purchase overall.

We purchased this to have our stout coffee while we camp and could not be more pleased! Easy to use and a tip is to buy those aeropress paper filters along with to produce a perfect crema. Tutorials can be found on YouTube and that's how I learned.Very sturdy and stylish, I will definitely buy again if this one wears out!

This is a review, along with some general tips, because using a moka pot is great, but they have some quirks. :)So, the review. This is a pretty good little pot. I ordered the white 9-cup version. It's a little big for my hands - my hands are 6.5 inches (16.5cm) from the tip of my middle finger to where my palm connects to my wrist, right at the bend. I find that I can't quite get my fingers around the sides of the bottom half to get a good grip when screwing the top onto the bottom. I have to hold the bottom from underneath to get enough leverage for a tight seal. Not a big deal, but if you have small hands, or have joint pain, you might want to go with the 6-cup instead (if the base is narrower - I'm afraid I don't know). The threads are a tad rough, but the sections screw together smoothly, and a nail buffer took care of the prickly little machining bits. To me, not a big deal. I've had worse on newly purchased wrenches.The enamel is good. Evenly applied, there's no rough patches, chips, or missed spots. One thing I was disappointed about was the handle, purely from an aesthetic standpoint. I probably didn't read the description closely enough while switching between colors. I had been looking at the black pot, but purchased the white, because it looked like it had a wooden handle. It's not. There's nothing wrong with the handle - it doesn't get hot, and whatever material it's made out of is kind of a 'firmly microfibery' texture that's actually very pleasant to the touch. And it does look good. Just not what I was expecting. That's what I get for not reading the description more closely. My bad.In making coffee with it, it showed an issue that is very common to many, many moka pots, across all brands. A little finagling, and the issue is now resolved (more about that in a minute), and this pots works very well.What issue? It sputtered and spit when the coffee exited the spout in the upper chamber. Now, as I said, this is a common issue, which, I have found over the years, to have a couple of easy fixes.First probable cause of spittering (new word!) - the burner temperature is too high / you're trying to make coffee too fast. I've found the best way to use moka pots is to preheat your water to ALMOST boiling (200-205F/90-95C) in a separate container (pot, microwave, electric teakettle, whatever) then fill the bottom to just below the vent, put it all together (be careful, it will be HOT), then put it on the burner on LOW heat (see pic). I have a gas stove, and the burner I use is actually the one designed for melting butter or chocolate without burning it. It's on a setting of between 2 and 3, out of 10. Yes, that's low. But 3-5 minutes later I have a very smooth flow of coffee that isn't burned and bitter. Yay!Second cause of spittering is a not quite tight seal. This could be because you're not screwing the pieces together tight enough, or (more commonly) the basket where you put your coffee sits just a hair (and I do mean a hair!) too low, and the seal isn't quite perfect. To be honest, I have 4 moka pots (the Grosche is my 5th) including a not-cheap Bialetti, and all but one has this particular problem. (The good one is a $5 yard sale purchase from 8 years ago. Doesn't even have a gasket. Just screws together and works every time. Go figure.) But there's an easy fix. Use 2 wraps of PTFE (teflon tape). See pic on how to apply. Squinch it up under the lip of your basket and you're good to go. Yes, even my Bialetti got this treatment.One more tip - dont tamp your coffee down. Just tap the outside of the basket with your fingers to settle the grounds a bit, and level it off. Just trust me. It works so much better.All that aside, I do like the Grosche moka pot. It's pretty, it feels good in my hands, and it really does work well, if you understand how moka pots work. I would definitely recommend it as good value for your money.Cheers!

I’ve been using this type of coffee pot for years, but need to replace it every so often.Well, I melted the handle on this pot for the last time.I’m not sure why it’s taken so long for manufacturers to change the handle material!This time, I replaced this pot with a pot with an unmeltable stainless steel handle and it actually makes exceptional coffee.Glad I finally switched. No more melted handles for me!

My husband's grandma used to make coffee using something like this back in the day. When he saw I bought one for him he was so happy. We've only had it for 3 days and used it way more than 3x already. Definitely already a staple. Makes a great cup of espresso.

The pot is easy to use, disassemble, clean and store, and even if you're still getting the hang of it, the coffee doesn't come out burned. The one complaint I have is the enameled color on the bottom of the pot became discolored from the heat of the stovetop (it's purely an asthetic issue, the pot still works just fine).

Very pretty design and makes delicious coffee, strong expresso, Strangely, it’s more aromatic tasty and hotter then my expensive Delonghi bean to cup machine which eventually has broken. Mine is 1 cup and will make 1 tiny expresso cup. Having said that, I still have to make two successive cups to have my perfect shot, so wish the funnel had more capacity. It will take two full but not heaped tablespoons of ground coffee Still, love my tiny coffee maker.

Pretty and easy to clean. Just wished it wasn’t so pricey, especially because mine arrived a little crooked on the handle. Well, just hoping that a part of the monies actually does go towards the Water Project. Saving up for the bigger sizes, not that there will be any guests anytime soon... 😅

Have had a few of these and this one is easily the best. Sturdy and well made.

Grandaughter loved this coffee kettle ,lovely when she has friends around.

Takes just two minutes to brew with preboiled water. Love it. Recommend it to any moka pot lover. I have 3 moka pots and this has become my favourite. Looks lovely too 😍❤️👍
