Electric Espresso Coffee Maker – Barista Supplies

So, you're a big fan of espresso. That's fantastic! But what is it, exactly? You don't like how much they cost on a daily basis? And you don't want to buy a big, expensive computer for your house (what are they, gold-plated or something)? If you like espresso but don't want to pay the high price, an electric espresso maker is a good option. There are certain steps you can follow to have the best coffee. 

Pour water into the bottom chamber

Pour cold water into the bottom chamber. Pre-heating the water will prevent the coffee from cooking on the stove. That might be a good idea if you're using the big 6-cup Bialetti, but I noticed it didn't make a difference in taste and was more of a hassle with the 3-cup Bialetti. Try both methods and choose the one that works best for you.

Fill the filter with ground coffee

Fill the filter with ground coffee. The fineness of the grind is a point of contention. I use a grind that is finer than drip, but slightly coarser than espresso. The filter should not be crammed. I use my finger to level the grinds and get away with any loose grounds, just as I would with daily espresso. Place the coffee in the bottom chamber once it has been loaded into the filter. Alternatively, you might first fill the filter and then add the ground coffee. It's good either way.

Make sure the top and bottom chambers are safe. As a group,

Twist the upper and bottom chambers together until they are fully sealed. Failure to completely secure the two chambers could result in a failed brew and a messy cleanup.

Place the coffee maker on top of the stove

Turn on the heat and place the stovetop maker on top of it. The job can be done with only a low flame. You may also carry it outside and use a campfire to cook it over.

Remove from the heat until the coffee has finished brewing and serve

Switch off the heat and serve the coffee until the brew cycle is full and the coffee is in the top chamber. A brew period in progress is shown in the images below. Ideally, you can keep the lid closed when brewing.

Allow to cool before cleaning

Allow time for your stovetop espresso maker to cool before dismantling it for cleaning. You don't want to get burned.

Following all these steps will get you an amazing cup of espresso for yourself and your friends and family.
