Gennaro makes mundane things look so majestic. This guy knows how to live.
The caffettiera is by no means mundane.
There’s nothing mundane about coffee.
Jesus, you people are annoying. I travel the damn world for coffee, just came back from Nariño (Colombia) and you're here trying to patronize me. An Italian man using standard coffee powder, using a mocha pot, in Italy, is pretty mundane.
@@eliseumds It's pronounced caffe-tee-era. Not moh-ka-pot.
Totally agreed with this !!!..
Gennaro consumes food and drinks with his soul, he really feels it!
When I need a good relaxing smile, I watch Gennaro! Love his voice, laughter, and warm heart.Reminds me of my Father.Thank you, Gennaro,U ROCK!TEACH US EVERYTHING!
Refreshing to see it done by a real Italian. No fuss, no filtering the coffee through a virgins hair, no adding water heated to precisely 98F, no setting to gas mark 3.9875. Just chuck the water in, add a reasonable amount of quality coffee and apply heat and time. Brilliant- I’m going to make a cup right now
Simply two very different desires for coffee. Traditional or modern.
@@Adam-vx6to bitter or sweet
@@Assenayo Bad or Good ;)
I personally put cold water when using a moka pot because of the convenience. On the other hand I totally get why some people prefer preheating it. Waiting for the water to warm inside the pot takes a bit of time and meanwhile the coffee roasts in the filter, getting somewhat bitter.
Secondly he put too much water inside. The level shouldn't get over the safety valve.
Totally agree and for the amount of money you saved not buying a thousand bucks hard to clean monstrosity. Just buy quality coffee or beans and a grinder.
Gennaro, thats the way of coffee making , you celebrate the brewing procedre. Love that.
Ive always watched Gennaro’s videos from 5 years ago, 6 years ago etc. I saw this video 16 mins after from uploading. For some reason that made me so happy. I felt close to Gennaro :) God bless guys like him. Greetings from Istanbul.
even though i've been making coffee in the moka pot for years, i still click to watch Gennaro do it. as many say here, this man always makes my day a bit better - especially if I'm feeling down - and never fails to remind me why making food is so good
Please, Gennaro, do more videos on how to do simple things. It will make the world a better place.
even if Gennaro just boiling a water i still love to watch it
Haha!!! so true!
The existence of this man alone can make me smile. And I know I'm not alone.
This is the only machine I use Genarro, since I was a kid in Europe and now in Australia. The best!
He's so excited I could smell the coffee too
The most useful wedding present we ever got. Lasts a lifetime, and an eternal marriage...
Yet not too pretentious
We use the same coffee pot in Bulgaria too.
Wish you all the best!!!
I love the pan lids in the basket 🦘🐨🇦🇺
I used to live in Italy a long time ago...and have been using one of these every morning, ever since. It really is the quickest and easiest way for a decent cup of coffee. Also, (pro tip) that bubbling and steam coming out from around that valve isn't supposed to happen. That's a (safety measure) pressure release valve if you accidentally forget about it on the stove or the stem is clogged...his is old and the seal is broken so the release valve won't work anymore as it's intended. The entire point is if the pressure gets too high that emergency valve blows to release the pressure. Considering the entire point of the thing is using pressure to make coffee....you probably don't want a leak like that because it's not going to work as intended for making coffee, and can (although unlikely) be a bit dangerous.
The water is coming out of the valve because you filled it past the level of the valve. It should always be filled below it. Also, use freshly boiled water, not cold. The process is much quicker and the grounds aren't being baked while the water heats up, resulting in a less bitter cup.
just to add - also using clean moka pot will result in better tasting coffee :D
Also throw your Moko pots in the bin, they don’t make a good coffee.
@@tdolan500 care to elaborate?
@@MrGeorgeBleau Just trolling I guess. A great pastime from the early days of the internet. Or straight up stupidity. A lot of people who can't even spell the word buy cheap pots and can't use them. I've read of one idiot who managed to have the thing explode because she tamped down the grounds into the filter :D
@@MrGeorgeBleau it’s not possible to make coffee in a Moko that’s not horribly over extracted and bitter. Over: bitter- too hot/too long. Under: sour- too cool/too fast.
Moko’s work by boiling the water over the grounds. 91-96c is the range for a proper extraction.
I love Gennaro, his enthusiasm is infectious. Long live Gennaro.
This guy is a legend. I've used these coffee pots for years. When you fill it with water, make sure not to fill above the little valve. He almost touched on it but not quite. Also, fill it with just boiled water to speed up the process. Makes no difference to the end result.
If anything, I believe using boiling water to speed up the process would allow for a less burnt tasting coffee, since the grounds aren't subjected to heat as long. I'm new to the moka pot though, so I don't know
I'd like to see a test to see how hot the coffee gets before boiling.
Watching Gennaro makes me happy. Such a positive energy he gives!!!
Good morning from Texas. You have a joy and zest for life Sir! You could talk about taking out the garbage and you would make it enjoyable 😀 God bless you.
Gennaro is pure class
Can’t believe I just watched a video on how to make a coffee 😊 you make me smile Gennaro
Gennero long time no see we missed you NOW WE HAPPY Thank you
So simple, so good...so much love! He is worshipping the beauty of life!
wish Gennaro healthy n happy. Love your cooking. Love from HK, China.
Love you Gennaro! Why you make coffee sooooo goooooddd!!! I too enjoy brewing a coffee in a Bialleti. Simple but wonderful pleasures.
My favourite way to make coffee I remember seeing Antonio Carluccio’s kitchen He had an amazing collection of Moka Pots 🙏😍
What a timely delight to enjoy while Im sipping my morning coffee. Basically had "smell-o-vision" while watching this :)
Exactly! It really came alive...
To get even better tasting coffee, first, grind your own. Best would be fresh roasted coffeebeans (after 1 week of roasting, use before 4 weeks after roasting). Then, instead of cold water use boiled water, make sure to use a towel or something because the moka pot gets hot obviously. This reduces the time on the gas and the time the coffee is connected with the hot source, because the pot can get really hot, it's better to reduce the time this way and get less bitter/burned coffee. Last but not least, when the coffee starts pooring into the upper part of the pot, reduce the heat to a minimum. Some say you can also turn off the heat because there should be enough pressure to press the water trough the coffee but I like to put it on minimum heat to get it going. Then when it starts to make noise, turn off the heat. I then pour into the cup right away because the less time the coffee is in that steaming hot pot the better, some would say to cool it down with the coffee inside by running cold water over the bottom part, but I find it a mess and a bit dangerous so I just poor into the cup right away.
Should need less sugar because of less bitterness as well ;)
You watched the James Hoffman video?
passionate grandpa with good energy. We need more of these vids.
Love this video. Some additional tips from me for a smooth brew:
- Lavazza coffee is best in my opinion - all of their range gives great results
- Don't over pack the filter with coffee (i.e. don't compress the chamber, let the coffee sit naturally)
- High heat can lead to a bitter flavour, have the gas on very low and let the water boil slowly so you don't burn the coffee
- Similarly, don't let the coffee over boil, as the last creamy bubbles fill the pot turn the gas off - the pressure will continue to release more coffee into the pot
- FIll half a large mug with milk and heat on medium power for 50 seconds (not high power) and add the coffee to the milk for a nice smooth breakfast brew
Lovely!!
Thanks 😊
Perfect example of how it should be done , love the Lavazza too
Local speciality roasters will almost always do a better job than supermarket beans
We came for Gennaro, the companionship, and coffee. Thank you!
Love hearing the cockney accent slip in every now and then.
Yeah I was thinking, I bet I know where this guy learned English.
At first his accent confused me. It was like two different things lol
Go in with the spoooooon
Everyone has their ways of coffee and there's not much to it but take it from a coffee guy - use fresh coffee ans grind it yourself. If you get ground coffee it's already lacking so much flavour because it was probably ground weeks if not months ago. Get some good beans, roasted like a week or two before, no longer than 3 months.
Also, dont put cold water in, use 60*C (140F) water or just a tad hotter than tap hot, you'll avoid burning your coffee inside the mokapot (which makes the brew more bitter) and the whole process is just quicker.
Go ahead and watch James Hoffmann's take on mokapot coffee if you can. Not saying Gennaro is making bad coffee, it's just some tips how to up your game ;)
absolutely agree mate
@Rideable Sun not asking you to adore Hoffmann, just gave a coffee technique tip ;)
Gennaro.... We all love you... long live for Gennaro
Thank you sir for sharing. Just like you I enjoy my coffee exactly like you this way every morning.
Kindest Regards from Ireland 🇮🇪
Love his passion
You have just made my morning coffee more enjoyable, thank you! xx
You don't want to know how much I'd love to have a coffee or tea break with Gennaro
Love you Gennaro!
Grazie Gennaro. Just love you, your wonderful recipes and your kind spirit.
I start my every morning with brewing a good cup of coffee in this type of pot. After a big breakfast - just hits the spot perfectly!
That look of happiness on his face is so infectious! these Moka pots are amazing!!
Bless you, you help me a lot with your good energy.❤️
I’ve seen this coffee maker but never known how to use it! Thanks for sharing.
Don't worry about withdrawals. The effects are minor/negligible. You can drink or stop drinking coffee whenever you want and you'll be fine. Worst that will happen is feeling a bit tired, that's all.
Definitely own one of them, it's the best!!
Love your wonderful videos Mr Gennaro. God bless you 🙏🏻💙
I also use it every day. It is so delicious!
You're so warm and generous. Thanks for another video :)
You're the best of the best Gennaro xxx
My favourite coffee machine..really it makes the tastiest coffee !!!
Thank you Gennaro
I fell in love watching him make that coffee. And I think I could even smell the aroma.
You make the simple delights of life magical. This was the best part of my day❤
I love you the way you do this simple things
Excellent! No weighing of coffee, no weighing of water, no tamping, no timing the brew. 😁👍 But enjoys the aroma and adds sugar. A true coffee lover not a process lover!
I have Bialetti at home. Awesome thing! Gennaro, thanks for sharing your wisdom, sole and love with us!
Love your kitchen!!! 🌸
Вы потрясающий человек!! Долгих лет и отменного здоровья желаю вам, Gennaro.
Thank you. I own one but have never used it until now.
My father gave me one and the sound it makes when the coffee makes my mornings so much better.
I would love for this man to be in my family -- always teaching how to make something better and tastier!
Thank you!
The Japanese have their tea ceremonies, we have Gennario for the coffee!
the japanese love their coffee too, using the pour over method 😇
I have a coffee pot like that. I purchased it in Italy when I was in the Navy. I never used it because I wasn't sure how it worked
This is the best way to drink coffee! Sooo good and flavorful… this is my ritual every single day! Thanks Gennaro
You look like my second father..he was half italyn.. i miss him very much..thank you for this wonderfull clip .pure and simple how life is with a great smell of pure coffee..🙏
A basic piece of kitchen equipment that I don’t have because I didn’t know how to use it. Now I feel like I have learned something old and kind of magical. Thanks Gennaro 😚
For more information, search for these tutorials that follow Bialetti instructions: "Annalisa J Moka pot" and "Il Barista Italiano Moka."
Thanks, Gennaro, you cheered me up a bit.
It's about the simple things in this complicated world. Love this video! ❤
I love your videos and how you interpret your recipes with love. I have 3 moca coffee makers and perfect. Thank you and také čáře. Peter from Prague.
I would love to have a coffee break with Gennaro. Love that guy! Well, that didn’t look complicated so maybe I will buy one of those coffee makers one day soon. I did used to have a Greek copper coffee pot back in the day. Don’t tell him but I’ve been making instant espresso.
Throughly enjoyable to watch! Ha! Good work👍🏻
Thank you Gennaro. I love using mine but worked out how much coffee and water by trial and error. It was good to learn, properly, from an Italian master.
Beautiful! Grazie mille!
I enjoy this man very much.
Please show us the rest of your kitchen, it’s lovely
I love the way you describe ❤ love from Athens Greece ❤
Grazie gennaro.. viva l'italia
God bless this man.
Gennaro, once again THANK YOU. I have wondered about those machines. Am getting one
Normally I don't drink coffee (only sometimes), but oh God, I'm gonna get myself a cup. Especially its 10:48AM, so close to 11AM :D And I have the same "coffee machine"
You are the best chef . Bravo Gennaro
Gennaro thank you my friend the coffee looked delicious .
You are the best, thank you 😊
Perfecto !!
What a great kitchen
this took me back to lovely holiday memories in Italia😍
It's almost midnight and this video makes me want to get out of bed and go make coffee in my moka pot!
I love Gennaro! Make more videos please!!!
You're very passionate sir!
That's awesome!
I love my Moka pot. Can’t live without it!
Papa Gennaro you inspire me to enjoy life in a soulful way
I've been using these for a couple of years now and the best tasting coffee that I can get from one of these is by keeping a low flame, Just enough that the coffee slowly creeps up the centre tube and falls down like a stream instead of sputtering. When it sputters, I find the coffee to be too acidic and too bitter at the same time.
What a man. Oh my my. Why am I cooking so good!
I’ve missed Gennaro so much
Gennaro this is great video. I visited Miami for the first time ever in July. Had some of the best Cuban coffee I've ever had made with one of these. I bought one and espresso to go with it. Haven't use my keurig since.
We love Gennaro !!💕
Gennaro taught me to enjoy the little things in life. Dolce vita!!!
Bought my 1st one out of the Italian PX in Camp Bastion in 2014, been making coffee with one ever since ❤👍🏻
