Front Street Coffee analyzes this through comparative experiments, examining concentration, crema, and mouthfeel one by one, and explains that the Moka pot's maximum pressure is only about 3 bar, while an espresso machine can reach 9 bar, which determines that it cannot replicate the thick, heavy texture of espresso. However, the Moka pot was never designed to replace the espresso machine; its portability, ease of use, and affordability are enough to meet light daily needs. [more…]
