That makes sense. I bought a 6 Cup Moka Pot and I now understand why people vote no. However, it does make a delicious cup. Probably the closest you can get to espresso at home without a large upfront investment.
Now, if you're interested in sugary crema from that same pot, to equal great espresos ... I can pass on as I was taught by little old Cuban ladies.
1. Put 3 spoons of sugar in a little metal cup with a handle.
2. As soon as the first dribs of coffee come out, pour a tiny bit into the sugar pot.
3. Mash that brown sugar into a paste. KLINK-KLINK-KLINK-KLINK goes the spoon ... the sugar paste will have a consistency like toothpaste. This take practice, knowing the ratios.
4. Pour the now-full Moka pot into the metal cup. Stir. Sugary froth on top awaits the lucky!
