A rather speedy video to introduce you to the machinetta or moka pot. The authentic way to make italian caffe on the stove (how my Nonna makes it).

In this video I am using a single serving moka pot, yields a demitasse full of espresso. If yours is a larger variation of mine follow the same directions: filling the filter funnel level with ground coffee, and water up to the safety valve.
Make sure the two componets are screwed on tight and that the safety valve isn't loose.

I made this video guide for anyone desiring a simpler way to make espresso. No expensive machinery needed. Plus if your like me, and fail at making coffee the modern way, this is a surefire way of producing a good espresso.
