Can anyone tell me how well Stove top Espresso makers work and if they do, recommend a good one?
Not surprised... had one once, dumped it. The water is too hot when it's pushed up the middle spout to brew. Temperature control (below 100 deg C) plus a hydraulic pump is the way to go.I dont have much experience with them, but when I did use it I really didn't enjoy the process and the taste wasn't as great as I was used to. I`d look towards a pump driven machine instead.
Please tell us what this is.Assuming you're talking about a moka pot, there is a bit of technique required to get a good cup of coffee.
