Slackware
As simple as Arch, but more stable.
The design is almost 100 years old and doesn’t need daily filter updates.
That sounds an awful lot like the blaming the user. Maybe it really is the slackware of coffee.
It does not. A regular percolator does, as it circulates the coffee back into the boiling water, unlike a moka pot, where the finished coffee does not sit at the bottom close to the heat, but in the top compartment. You should take it off the stove as soon as it’s done to avoid getting the finished coffee back to a boil or overextracting the coffee but if you do it right, they make really good coffee. There are even some versions that feature a valve, so the coffee is cooked at a higher pressure, getting it a little closer to espresso and producing a nice –albeit short lived – crema.
Hell, mine made crema on the first try. I probably over-pressed the coffee though.
I really like the mocha pot, but I’m a cappucino fan - if only there were a simple way to steam milk. I even have a Bellman, but it takes forever to build up pressure.
Tbh confused how you even managed to burn the coffe with this, as it is just evaporating water that filters through the coffee above - like did you put the coffee in the bottom part? 🤔
I 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.)
