Stovetop espresso
3-cup aluminum moka pot (sample)
The stovetop classic: strong, espresso-adjacent coffee with no machine and no electricity. It rewards a little practice — medium heat and pre-heated water tame its bitterness.
Best for: Strong-coffee drinkersBest for: Small budgetsBest for: Induction with an adapter plate
Worth knowing: Easy to over-extract until you learn the heat cutoff
