If you have a big enough water reservoir, yes.

@@365dongle3 Thank you ))

Hi. The wick is jute string. I buy mine online on ebay. You should be able to use any organic string, so not polyester or nylon for example. Doing a test is always a good idea to see if the string transmits the water. Good luck!

Reheat water just to put it in the Moka pots boiler is a pain in the ass. Either way you're waiting for water to come to a boil either in the kennel or in the Moka pot. You're adding an extra step just to make coffee. Fill kennel with water. Turn on gas stove top or if using an electric stove, set dial to medium heat or high (like you can in the moka pot), so it can come to a boiler. Pour boiling water from the kennel to the boiler chamber. Put coffee holder on the boiler and fill it with coffee. Grab a towel or oven mitts and tighten the Moka Pot (🤦‍♂️). Or fill the boiler with cold water. Add coffee. Assemble the Moka pot. Put on the preheat stove top or gas flame. Wait. Boom. Done. Now wait. Sheesh.

I always use cold water and never had under extracted coffee. Even on an Electric stove top.

Hmm. I've worked in a lot of coffee shops and at home we make the same coffee in a smaller moka pot.....we use espresso grind and it's almost identical to how it tastes in our high end coffee shops...not perfect but close. I'll have to try it on the courser grind.

Not that strong. The Mokka pot makes good strength coffee which I like to enjoy with frothy warm milk! It is not Espresso strength.

2-3 cup is your typical cup of coffee for one person, you could go with 4 if you need a tone of caffeine. Those cup sizes are in typical Italian espresso measures, so about 40ml per cup.

Yes that should work. You just need to make sure that the water will get to the roots, so use a straw again and just bury it in the ground.

Good idea. You could try putting the straws in the top of the bottle instead of cutting into the side. A more elegant solution perhaps.

Or you could do the contrary: connect the straws to the bottom of the bottle, as this would make a stronger water output. But you'll need to connect the straws to the bottle in a hermetic way to prevent unwanted water leaks. Also you'll need to use strings thick enough to sit in the straws tightly, otherwise the water will just flow bypassing the strings. Or you can use heatshrink tubes.

I have not personally come across the method you describe. I have always allowed one coat applied to both surfaces to become tacky before pressing them together. This is the normal method with contact adhesives as far as I know.

@@paulholzherr2993 Ok, with high density foam in the kayak cockpit I have always been instructed to use two coats. It may be different for a gasket

@@ws9186 Hi, I still have the glue I used and it is called Bostik 2402. A 'how to' video does say allow the coat to become milky/tacky before bringing the two surfaces together. It does also say apply a priming coat as well. This glue is meant for use on rubber based surfaces.

Hi ledgrowlabs. Sounds like an interesting set up that should work. Try it and see. Make sure the plant is lower than the water source. The capillary action seems to work best going downhill with gravity assist. Experiment is the way.

@@365dongle3 I read that water can only wick up 13 inches so I will have to experiment an see what container would be best thanks 4 sharing your way fits me intrigued so this can go into tents with a res out of a tent

Hi Emily. The strings in this model do go right through the straws and come out the other end. This ensures the water gets through the straw. The straw acts as a conduit - there would be evaporation without it as the water travels very slowly. As long as your water source is higher than the destination you can direct it on to your capillary mat, which is what it sounds like you are using here. Just make sure you have enough of a supply to keep the mat moist. Some trial and error may be needed.

@@paulholzherr2993 After visiting your site I discovered that evidently if the water source is below the plant, the water will be sucked up by the roots against gravity when it is needed but if the water source level is higher than the plant, the water is forced out of the container and empties onto the plant by gravity which could lead to over watering. Also there are evidently some cheap watering systems you can use consisting of plastic tubing attached to a container/capsule with a removable lid with holes at the other end to allow the water to drip into the plant. A woman showed them being used to water plants throughout her house. The tubing extends to the bottom of a jar full of water and the end of the capsule sticks into the soil of the plant. The plant needs to be fully watered from the top before setting it up to work with of course the jar of water being placed below the plant.

Hi, I use Lavazza Qualita Rossa. I have tried a few brands and this is the one I now use - with frothy warm milk it is nice! The grind size I am not sure. It's quite fine. On the pack it says suitable for all coffee makers. It is not very coarse.
