Einrichtung und erste Verwendung

Before using your Primula Stovetop Espresso Maker for the first time, it is recommended to wash all components with warm water and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry completely. Brew a few batches of coffee and discard them to season the pot and remove any manufacturing residues.

Montage

Ensure all three components (top chamber, filter funnel, lower water chamber) are clean and dry before assembly.

  1. Unscrew the top chamber from the lower water chamber.
  2. Remove the filter funnel from the lower water chamber.
  3. Proceed to the "Operating Instructions" for filling and reassembly.

Bedienungsanleitung

Follow these steps to brew delicious espresso-style coffee:

  1. Mit Wasser füllen: Fill the lower water chamber with cold water up to the level of the safety-release valve. Do not overfill.
  2. Kaffeesatz hinzufügen: Insert the filter funnel into the lower water chamber. Fill the filter funnel with finely ground coffee. Do not tamp the coffee grounds. Ensure no grounds are on the rim.
  3. Topf zusammenbauen: Carefully screw the top chamber onto the lower water chamber, ensuring a tight seal to prevent steam from escaping during brewing.
  4. Auf dem Herd platzieren: Place the assembled Moka pot on your stovetop over low to medium heat. For gas stovetops, ensure the flame does not extend beyond the base of the pot.
  5. Griffposition: Always position the handle away from the direct heat source to prevent it from overheating.
  6. Brauen: As the water heats, pressure will build, forcing hot water through the coffee grounds and into the top chamber. You will hear a gurgling sound as the coffee brews.
  7. Aufschlag: Once the top chamber is full of brewed coffee and the gurgling sound stops, remove the pot from the heat immediately. Serve the fresh espresso into demitasse cups.

Wartung und Reinigung

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your espresso maker.

  • Tägliche Reinigung: After each use, disassemble the pot and rinse all components (top chamber, filter funnel, lower water chamber) with warm water only. Avoid using soap, as it can leave residues that affect coffee flavor over time.
  • Trocknen: Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling and storing. This prevents oxidation and mold growth.
  • Spülmaschine vermeiden: Do not wash any part of the Moka pot in a dishwasher. Dishwashers can damage the aluminum finish and affect the pot's ability to brew properly.
  • Dichtung und Filterplatte: Periodically check the silicone gasket and filter plate located inside the top chamber. If they appear worn or damaged, replacement parts may be available from Primula.
