A Moka Pot

How-to-do:

1. Unscrew moka pot and fill the bottom chamber with boiled water to just under the pressure valve.
2. Fill the central coffee funnel with ground coffee to the top, slightly mounded, and screw back together.
3. Place the moka pot on stove over a moderate heat.
4. Shortly, the coffee starts to bubble out from the central spout, releasing the lovely coffee. Enjoy!
