Easy Brew Tips For Stovetop Espresso

Stovetop espresso makers are more popular than ever because they provide an easy alternative to a larger home espresso machine. They are also a cheaper option, and they will allow you to brew espresso directly on your stove in moments. Here are some easy tips to help you on your way:

Start out by adding fresh water to the bottom chamber of the pot. Do not fill above the safety valve.
• Use a fine espresso grind, and pack the filter basket loosely. If you pack too tight, the espresso will not extract properly.
• Place the filter basket into the bottom chamber, and screw the top chamber on. Make sure that the device is sealed well.
• Place the stovetop espresso maker on your stove on medium heat until you hear the espresso beginning to brew. Lower the heat at this time for a few moments, and then turn off the heat completely.

And there you have it - delicious stovetop espresso in moments!
