If your beans are ground more finely, the brew time will take a bit longer because the steam extraction is forced through a more dense grind. DO NOT TAMP THE COFFEE OR RUSH THE BREW PROCESS. 2-3 minutes actual brew time once the coffee starts percolating out of the top chamber port is key. Espresso grind may be too fine for this pot. It should be a bit more coarse but still finely ground. Experiment and take notes on the settings for your particular grinder.Die Größenangaben finde ich jedoch lächerlich. Für eine Person ausreichend, man kann damit eine Tasse Kaffee machen. Mehr nicht. Daher auch einen Stern Abzug. Regresas la cafetera a la estufa y le subes la flama para que hierva el agua. Yo dejo la tapa abierta para poder ver cuando empiece a salir el café y tan pronto empiece a “escupir” o gorgorear, le cierro la tapa (para que no me salpique) y cuento 10 o 15 segundos. Inmediatamente apago el fuego y sirvo el café. Lo poco que sale después ya no lo tomo porque es como mas amargo o quemado y no es mas de 1 o de media cucharada así que no vale la pena.
