Extra Strong
Open in appStumptown's moka pot guidance informs this extra-strong version, using a fuller basket and finer grind without tamping. It is built as a dense, espresso-like base with enough body and roast intensity to carry milk drinks.

Definitions, ratios and protocols behind this recipe.
- Moka pot Bialetti patented the moka pot in 1933 and the design hasn't changed much since. A bottom chamber holds water, a basket holds coffee, an upper chamber receives the brew. Heat the base on the stove; pressure builds in the bottom chamber as water heats; steam pressure pushes hot water up through the basket and into the upper chamber. It's a stovetop pressure brewer, not espresso — pressure tops out around 1.5 bar, where espresso machines run 9.
- Brewer families Brewers split into three families by how water meets coffee. Each family has a character. Knowing which family you're using tells you what kind of cup to expect — and which mistakes are easy to make.
