If the water source is higher than dropping it make gravitational watering not capillary.

The Bialetti moka pots are *not American measurements, but Italian measurements* A one cup is basically, in Italy, a coffee shot. Same with a three cup. It can fill three shot glasses. Same with a six, nine and ten and so on. Yes they are small shot glasses, but that's what they use. Please don't use the handle to tighten the pot. Listen o what you read in the instructions. I do believe you want a long lasting product and not have to replace parts like the handle.
@sO_RoNerY2 жыл бұрын
Too much heat. Medium-low is perfect. Don't pack the coffee down. Just do tappy taps lightly or enough so the coffee powder moves and evenly fills the coffee filter/holder. Scrap any excess coffee with the back of a silverware so it is even and below the coffee filters rim. That's it. The rest is easy. The instructions say use low heat, but imo, they probably mean if you're using flame to use low heat. Heat from flame vs an electric stove are different in heat wise. Meaning flame will get it maybe a bit hotter faster than electric stove tops.

@365dongle32 жыл бұрын
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!
@ThePerfectDuck2 жыл бұрын
with all due respect, Sir, but you NEVER tamper the coffee on a moka machine. this is not only dangerous, but also a blasphemy, as it changes the extraction ratio, hence the taste of the final brew. another thing, you fill the machine with boiling hot water, so the coffee has the less possible contact with the water.

This is how you make burnt coffee. For a good moka pot, fill the bottom part with pre boiled water, this minimises the amount of time the grinds are heated. As soon as the sputtering sounds start you don't want to extract any more from the grinds, just run the bottom under a cold tap. A fine grind like that is for espresso, a moka pot needs a much courser grind.
@sO_RoNerY2 жыл бұрын
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.

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.

Since you can only feel the jug up to where the holes are, why not put the holes in the top?
@365dongle33 жыл бұрын
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.
@rammix1 Жыл бұрын
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.

Do you think if the strings were extended through the straws, so the plants needing watering in porous cloth containers sat on top of them, they would be able to draw the water as needed like they do in self watering container systems? Although the self-watering containers have the water supply at the bottom of the container with a wick connecting the soil to the water supply, rather than to the sides as this would be.
@paulholzherr29934 жыл бұрын
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.
@emilybh62554 жыл бұрын
@@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.
