Moka coffee has been a staple of Italian households since the 1930’s. The Moka Express invented by Alfonso Bialetti, produces an intense, full-bodied, cup of coffee that’s 2–3 times as concentrated as regular coffee, earning it the nickname of “stove-top espresso”.

How to make it.

A Moka pot may look intimidating, but it shouldn't be. Water is first poured into the boiler. A coffee basket is then inserted and filled with medium grind coffee beans. Lastly, the top is screwed on and placed over a medium heat. As soon as the coffee starts to gurgle, remove, pour, and enjoy.

How to serve.

A Moka coffee’s bold and intense flavours are like that of an espresso. It’s normally enjoyed in a small cup, just like an espresso, and if you choose, a bit of milk.

Coffee fact.

Moka vs Mokka vs Mocha. The names might suggest they’re similar, but in reality, they're worlds apart. Moka is an Italian favourite similar to espresso. Mocha is a chocolate caffé latte variant popular all over the world, whereas Mokka is used to describe Turkish coffee.

The differences.

Espresso.

Although Moka coffee is often referred to as stovetop espresso, it can’t technically be considered an espresso. True espressos need at least 9 bars of pressure to be classified as espresso – a Moka pot produces only 2–3 bars.
