This unit is designed for standard gas and electric stovetops. It may not work on induction surfaces unless you use an induction interface plate.
The 6-cup capacity refers to 'demitasse' or espresso-style servings, totaling approximately 10-12 fluid ounces of concentrated coffee.
No, you should fill the basket and level the coffee off gently without tamping. Tamping can create too much pressure and stall the brewing process.
No, this product should be hand-washed to preserve the structural integrity and the copper finish.
It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the bottom chamber after the brewing process is complete to prevent the unit from overheating.
Ensure the top and bottom chambers are screwed together tightly and check that the rubber gasket is not damaged or obstructed by coffee grounds.
Use lower heat settings on your stove and remove the pot from the heat source immediately once the coffee begins to flow into the upper chamber.
Check that the filter basket is not clogged and ensure the water level in the base does not exceed the safety pressure valve.
Before your first use, wash all parts with warm water and mild soap to remove any manufacturing residue. When setting up, ensure the seal is clean and properly seated to maintain the necessary pressure. This maker is primarily designed for gas or electric stovetops. After each use, allow the unit to cool completely before disassembling for cleaning. Hand wash only with water and avoid harsh detergents or abrasive sponges that could scratch the copper finish. Ensure the pot is thoroughly dry before storing to prevent water spots or oxidation.
