Help Me Perfect My Stovetop Espresso Maker Coffee

Posted by CanadianFoodieGirl, January 11, 2009 at 12:49 PM

I recently bought a stovetop espresso maker. I read the instructions on the box and also searched online for tips. Instructions and online tips say to heat it on low heat. It takes at least 20 minutes to make the coffee this way, which I didn't realize when I bought it.

Is there a way to speed up the process? Also, how do I know that it's completely ready? I listen for it but there's always some water left in the bottom chamber. I use an electric stove, which might be the problem.

Advice on making the perfect espresso stove top?

Thanks.
