A Moka pot requires a grind size between fine espresso and drip filter coffee. If ground too fine, water pressure chokes the basket, resulting in bitter, burnt extraction. If ground too coarse, steam passes through too quickly without developing body. Telaa Moka Bold is calibrated specifically for stovetop basket resistance.
Standard pre-ground grocery coffee is often ground either too coarse for French press or too powdery for commercial pump machines. Telaa precision-grinds this blend to a granular sand texture that allows steady steam percolation without channeling.
Medium-dark roasting develops rich cocoa and roasted nut notes while tempering raw fruit acidity. Because stovetop pots brew with boiling water vapor, darker roasts yield a syrupy, concentrated shot with thick crema. It provides the ideal base for Americanos or rich milk-based drinks like flat whites and lattes.
The caramelization achieved during roasting balances the natural oils of the Arabica bean, preventing the astringent sour bite often experienced when using light roasts on high stovetop heat.
Start with pre-heated water in the lower chamber to shorten stove contact time. Fill the funnel basket evenly without tamping or compacting the grounds. Brew over gentle, medium-low heat and remove the pot immediately when the stream turns honey-colored and begins to sputter softly.
Cooling the base under a cold tap immediately after removing it from the stove halts extraction and prevents over-extracted bitter tannins from entering the upper pouring chamber.

Never tamp grounds in a Moka pot. Level the powder loosely with your finger to allow steam to pass through safely without dangerous pressure buildup.
Yes. You can sip it straight as a rich concentrated shot, or pour it over hot water to enjoy an Americano.
It is roasted and precision-ground in Rajkot, Gujarat by Aeroroast Corporation.
No. The calibrated particle size is large enough to be stopped by standard stainless steel Moka pot filter plates.
