I use refrigerated filtered water in mine. Maybe I just don’t set the heat too high though? I use a coil stovetop and put the knob around 7.5/10. Coffee takes 7-8 minutes after I turn it on.
Comment on What your coffee preparation method says about you
Duranie@literature.cafe 2 days agoI haven’t experienced this, but from what I hear if you start with cooler water in the bottom and have the heat set too high, you can overheat the pot and the grounds before the water comes to temp to actually brew.
The few times I’ve used my moka pot I’ve preheated the water in a kettle so it gets to brewing faster (based on coffee people recommendations online.)

This is the correct way to do it.
Boil the water first, pour it in the bottom, place coffee in section on top, screw on top part, heat till it brews out the too, then remove from heat as soon as it’s done.
