Good video! I recently bought the New Brikka. I love it! It's got a different crema valve inside the pipe where you can't see it. Also, it comes with a plastic measuring cup to pour 120ml of water into the 2 cup, or 170ml of water into the 4 cup.
Unless you know something I don't, but you should have prepared the milk while the coffee is brewing. The coffee shouldn't be sitting around and waiting for the milk to warm and froth.
just accidentally found your video in google.. wooow! your video should become the commercial instruction video of brikka :) it's very aesthetic and scientific.. and i totally like your statement "grinding coffee with hand grinder makes you appreciate coffee more.." just like don't waste any coffee because it's been through a lot of process from peaberry to ground coffee.. thanks for sharing this video..
Froth the milk when it's ice cold with a coffee plunger, heat it and then tap the bottom firmly on a counter to get rid of the bubbles. The foam is silkier that way.
I am a beginner with a small 1 cup mocha pot, and I have 2 problems. One I cant produce crema, and two I get small amount of grind coffee in the liquid (after drinking you can see it in the mug used). Any suggestions? I fill the pot with water below the valve, and coffee almost to the border.
Actually most people in Italy prepare coffee in moka-pots at home to simulate espressos drunk at cafes, go to any household and they'll most likely have a moka-pot rather than a PID, pressure profile espresso machine..they know it's not the same, but consider it good enough not to be bothered by spending money on hugely expensive machines and grinders at home.
Is it 2 cup moka pot? Did he use the whole liquid in the pot? Im asking because I want to buy a moka pot that will be enough for 2 cups of cappuccino like this man did. So do I need 2-cup or 4-cup moka pot?
That’s what an espresso shot should look like. Should have crem’e. This maker doesn’t has as much pressure as a coffee shop but with less water it gave more pressure then normal and bc he ground fresh coffee for this, it was very crem’ey
@@psychochrisandjess it is not anything about less water. it has a built in frothing element. because it is aerating the coffee at the end with water vapor (from the boiling water at the bottom creating steam), it will lighten the color of the coffee and increase volume. and for the coffee snobs: this is not the same as crema from espresso. that is produced with high pressure and the carbon dioxide expelled from the coffee (same gases as blooming in pour over). that is why it will dissipate quickly too (like how soda will turn flat when you open the bottle and leave it out).
Guys The crema is due to the baleiti "Brikka"! If u use a normal moka pot the chanfe if getting crema is less.. If yol want to get better crema i suggest u buy Balaeti "Brika" :)
or just get an all in one espresso machine. also, when trying to aquire higher quality beans, is counter culture a good option? or should i look local for the freshness?
question kind sir. i brew coffee with my regular moka pot, no brikka, and i want to upgrade. i'm saving up for an actually espresso machine in the future, and i am unsure whether to get a brikka while i wait, and ultimately what machine to get which is a whole different story. i currently use Illy fine ground dark espresso beans (i know, i really need to get my own grinder). as well i don't like how foamy the hand frothers make the milk. so should i get a brikka and a steam frother?
To be clear this is not an espresso maker in any sense of the word. This is merely a coffee extraction method. You will not find this described as an espresso maker on the Bialetti website, why? Because they're Italian and they know what espresso is. On their website this is called a coffee maker. In addition to that this little frothing gadget does not produce crema. Crema is produced via emulsification which this little device can not do. Calling a Ford a Ferrari does not make it so.
Thanks for this great video. I got my 2-cup-Brikka yesterday and I've got trouble with it... Sometimes the water is bubbling at the seal in the middle of the Brikka, although I really tightened it up... At other times it looks good and there are some drops coming out at first (like in the video) but the swoosh is completely different: theres only black coffee running out and only in the end there's some crema bubbling out of the vent... Do you think it's a matter of my Brikka or wrong handling?
Life is too short to be weighing out coffee ☕️ just eye ball it. As for the milk that foamer needs to be retired use a French press instead just unscrew the lid and bin then put hot milk into the press and pump the plunger until you get a nice micro foam. It’s a lot quicker then the electric frother. I hope that helps you get a decent cappuccino in the morning fast.
I think your crema looks too pale suggesting under-extraction, i know you're using the correct dose, but from my limited experience with the brikka, i've found that coffees with a medium to dark brown crema taste more balanced and sweeter.. only way i've found to do this is to pack as much coffee as the portafilter can hold, thus over-dosing, making them more like "ristrettos" than "espressos"
Pete Tong Dont worry about the Aluminum. I will tell you this. But every now and then you keep on using plastic items. In fact to tell you honestly you started your day using plastic toothbrush with toothpaste with plastic molded casing. You drink Soda or water in a plastic bottle. If you wanted to eat in a fastfood. All food container are plastic.
Before you prepare milk, coffee is like ice. And it figures on metal surface, whether it dissipates heat faster. I do not like this coffee preparation. But above all, you like it.
+Kimudo Kirata Hi buy this, it is ready, to prepair a original and delicous espresso o capuccino Italian style. www.amazon.it/Lavazza-Crema-Gusto-Miscela-Classico/dp/B0049TUQ98/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1463320035&sr=8-5&keywords=caffe+lavazza
Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?
OMG Coffee grinding by hand and measuring everything,it took you forever man... Why don't you prepare your milk with simple electric one from nespresso.
Too much work, U.S. There a faster way?usually if your a hardcore coffee drinker like me you want coffee first thing in the AM, I like how your all neat and tighty though!
I think it's funny people are now hand grinding their coffee. My mom used to do that when I was a kid. Completely ancient and obsolete practice for making coffee. Use an automatic grinder ffs.
Good video! I recently bought the New Brikka. I love it! It's got a different crema valve inside the pipe where you can't see it. Also, it comes with a plastic measuring cup to pour 120ml of water into the 2 cup, or 170ml of water into the 4 cup.
i'm surprise you did not have a thermometer to go along with your scale, grinder & mixer thingy
Super Video. Habe es mir jetzt schon mehrere Male angeschaut und bin immer begeistert von der schönen Crema!
Truly German meticulousness and accuracy.
This is a great technique.
Unless you know something I don't, but you should have prepared the milk while the coffee is brewing. The coffee shouldn't be sitting around and waiting for the milk to warm and froth.
TimeIdle true! Its gets bitter if left there
just accidentally found your video in google.. wooow! your video should become the commercial instruction video of brikka :)
it's very aesthetic and scientific..
and i totally like your statement "grinding coffee with hand grinder makes you appreciate coffee more.." just like don't waste any coffee because it's been through a lot of process from peaberry to ground coffee.. thanks for sharing this video..
nice video i have never seen that pattern before . try using the foamer while ur heating the cold milk works slightly better
Froth the milk when it's ice cold with a coffee plunger, heat it and then tap the bottom firmly on a counter to get rid of the bubbles. The foam is silkier that way.
Great video! Although I do find using pre-boiled water in the pot makes a better cup as the coffee spends less time on the stove.
The sudden pressure release making you jump 😆 Never mind how it looks, the taste is all that matters.
Nice vid Getty! FYI, I always heat the whole milk just prior to brewing the espresso. But if not, a 15 second hit in the microwave also works.
It is amazing that your crema can stay such a long time while preparing the milk...Mine just disappears after about 5 seconds...
that probably not a crema. just bubbles
Nice video !
Going to get a Bialetti Brikka today ! Incha Allah
These tips are very helpful. Thanks!
Danke fuer das Video! Leider wird meine Crema nicht so gut wie bei dir. Wie fein mahlst du deine Bohnen?
I am a beginner with a small 1 cup mocha pot, and I have 2 problems. One I cant produce crema, and two I get small amount of grind coffee in the liquid (after drinking you can see it in the mug used). Any suggestions? I fill the pot with water below the valve, and coffee almost to the border.
Making good espresso/coffee is no joke.
you need to heat your milk more to make it creamy with the manual frother
Love it... simple way to a great coffee without the fancy art. Thanks!
Actually most people in Italy prepare coffee in moka-pots at home to simulate espressos drunk at cafes, go to any household and they'll most likely have a moka-pot rather than a PID, pressure profile espresso machine..they know it's not the same, but consider it good enough not to be bothered by spending money on hugely expensive machines and grinders at home.
Woah, great advice. I didn’t know it could produce a creme shot!
Thanks so much for the video demo as I was having trouble in getting the crema out...
Maybe I'll try it for another time while waiting longer
Is it 2 cup moka pot? Did he use the whole liquid in the pot? Im asking because I want to buy a moka pot that will be enough for 2 cups of cappuccino like this man did. So do I need 2-cup or 4-cup moka pot?
Wait, why did your coffee come out creme coloured instead of black ?
It just looked like that because of the foam...
That’s what an espresso shot should look like. Should have crem’e. This maker doesn’t has as much pressure as a coffee shop but with less water it gave more pressure then normal and bc he ground fresh coffee for this, it was very crem’ey

Perfect! crema looked great.
actually the Illy grind has given me the most consistent results with the brikka.....
great video!! thanks
Thanks for this video. I am ordering it now thanks to you; 4 cups though
Cheers,
Joie de vivre. Great ideas.
The crema looks so delicious :P
BTW, may I have the music's name in the vedio? It sounds so lazy and relax.
Could I check please? Did you use 10 g of coffee and 62 g of water? Best wishes. Tim Marshall
Hi!! Would you tell me the name of the coffee grinder?? Thank you very much!!
Gianfranco Spagnuolo
It's a generic $20 hand grinder on Amazon
love it!
Danke dir fuer die Antwort! Werde es mal etwas groeber probieren und mich dann nochmal melden :) Schoenen Abend noch!
3:34 fail attempt for latte art
because of wrong cup to pour the milk
and wrond hand movement !
potofgold07 it's a vagina looks closely
.....huh..it does lol
potofgold07 lmao u stole my words
Just for drink no for art..
Guys The crema is due to the baleiti "Brikka"! If u use a normal moka pot the chanfe if getting crema is less.. If yol want to get better crema i suggest u buy Balaeti "Brika" :)
Its not really crema, just foam.
7531monkey crema is foam
omg is this guy a scientist?!
How about if i use milk to replace water
or just get an all in one espresso machine. also, when trying to aquire higher quality beans, is counter culture a good option? or should i look local for the freshness?
Mine doesnt make the swooshing sound, wonder what I am doing wrong.
What is name the grinder?
I'm thinking about buying a good manual hand ginder for my bialetti moka pot, 6cups. Do you recommend the heidelberg?
nice video btw!:)
the brand of the grinder please
Brikka comes in various sizes, what size did you use?
What brand of coffee beans you use? And what brand of grinder?
Geat crema! I thought it was coffee with cream.
Would also buy illy forvthe container
question kind sir. i brew coffee with my regular moka pot, no brikka, and i want to upgrade. i'm saving up for an actually espresso machine in the future, and i am unsure whether to get a brikka while i wait, and ultimately what machine to get which is a whole different story. i currently use Illy fine ground dark espresso beans (i know, i really need to get my own grinder). as well i don't like how foamy the hand frothers make the milk. so should i get a brikka and a steam frother?
Nice video, which beans did you use?
Where did you get that crema weight? What is a crema weight??
Is that an attachment on the top where the coffee comes out? I have one of this but it is different.
This model is called brikka and has that attachment that makes the nice espresso style foam.
What is the size of Brikka are you using? 2 Cups?
To be clear this is not an espresso maker in any sense of the word. This is merely a coffee extraction method. You will not find this described as an espresso maker on the Bialetti website, why?

Crema is produced via emulsification which this little device can not do. Calling a Ford a Ferrari does not make it so.
What kind of grinder was that.
Was the coffee/milk still hot by the time you got done?
Did you use regular milk?
Thanks for this great video. I got my 2-cup-Brikka yesterday and I've got trouble with it...

Was ist das für eine Mühle? Hersteller model?

Nice! But that’s a latté
A cappuccino would be a little more foamy
Hi, welcher Brikka hast du benutzt? 2 oder 4 personen?
Which hand grinder is that??
can i make such or atleast close to this crema with normal mokapot that isnt brikka? like if i put less water than recommended?
you cant...i use ordinary moka pot, but you cant get creamy result...you need bialetti brikka...
Such a sad story
hhhhhh nice latte art
1:49 ...should I preheat my gas stove???
Welche Kaffeemühle benutzt du?

What about the aluminium? Isnt it dangerous?

is this the 2 or 4 cup version?:)
Looks like the 3
Can I use any kind of coffee in this machine?
Don’t use too finely ground coffee
I wonder.. What if I used milk instead of water in the pot ?
you know what happens if you boil milk?
what is that black handle thing you use in your milk called?
Milk Frother.
really? I suppose you meant to say "making a black coffe and than add warm milk"
?
No, this is absolutely not a black coffe.
I could never get the same thick crema from a moka pot.
You must be some kind of a pharmacist ?!?!?!
I pity anyone that offers to make you a coffee.
Hhhhhhh nice
where can I buy that coffee crusher ? plz give me a link if some of you guys know. plz plz

Thi video is about failing to do a cappuccino.
john doedoe where is the good tutorial show me I want to make coffee
Way to much milk...way to much.
too anal, gee I hope he got to work on time !!
nothing wrong with making a consistent cup of coffee
what a waste of time and electricity/gas for a small cup of coffee.
LOL.... way too technical.....
uhm, what latte art is that? jk
non sei fregnoooooooooooo!
I am really surprised that such a poor demonstration is encouraged to be aired online.
Why the vomit inducing music?
I think it's funny people are now hand grinding their coffee. My mom used to do that when I was a kid. Completely ancient and obsolete practice for making coffee. Use an automatic grinder ffs.
good electric coffee grinders are hundred dollars. hand grinding is preferred to cheapies under $100. luckily I have a very expensive one $400
Dude loose the scale this is embarrassing
so bad :D
