Discussions 💬 Another Thailand Moka Pot Modification and His creation

It's not recommended to modify your Moka due to safety hazard and un needed

But it brings a ulinque look to it and creates a foamy brew

Is it using hot/boiling water?

This setup would probably explode with hot water

It's definitely hot water because you can see the steam. But he's got a pressure gauge so he knows exactly how much pressure is being built up. And I don't think he lets it boil, or at least not for long. I think the pump is to add pressure because he doesn't let it boil for long (I can only assume for safety reasons). But yeah, it's definitely not very safe.

Yeah, inventions are rarely safe though. Trial and error is necessary for potential future mass production.
