Fill the tank around half to three quarters of the way to the valve with boiling water. Place the basket with the prepped coffee into the base.
Pour about 1-2 ounces of hot water to bloom the bed of coffee in your basket.
Place an aeropress filter into the top portion of your mocha pot, then carefully assemble.
Place the mocha pot on your stove and heat on medium low.
