2. Fill the boiler with water up to the level of the safety valve.
3. Insert the filter funnel into the boiler.
4. Add a small amount of ground coffee (do not fill completely) into the filter funnel. Do not tamp.
5. Screw the top chamber firmly onto the boiler, ensuring a tight seal.
6. Place the Moka pot on a stovetop over low to medium heat.
7. Allow the coffee to brew. Discard this first brew.
8. Repeat this process 2-3 times with fresh water and coffee to season the pot and remove any metallic taste.

Your Moka Express is now ready for regular use.

5. Operating Instructions (Brewing Coffee)

Follow these steps to brew coffee with your Bialetti Moka Express:

1. Fyld kedlen: Unscrew the top chamber from the boiler. Fill the boiler with cold water up to the bottom edge of the safety valve. Do not exceed this level.
2. Tilsæt kaffegrums: Insert the filter funnel into the boiler. Fill the filter funnel with medium-fine ground coffee. Level the coffee gently without pressing or tamping it down. Ensure no grounds are on the rim of the filter or boiler.
3. Saml gryden: Screw the top chamber firmly onto the boiler. Ensure a tight seal to prevent steam from escaping during brewing.
4. Placering på komfuret: Place the Moka pot on a stovetop over low to medium heat. Keep the lid open initially to observe the brewing process.
5. Brygningsproces: Efterhånden som vandet opvarmes, vil damptrykket presse varmt vand op gennem kaffegrumsen og ind i det øverste kammer. Du vil høre en gurglende lyd og se kaffen flyde ind i det øverste kammer.
6. Tag af varmen: Once the top chamber is nearly full of coffee and you hear a distinct gurgling sound, indicating that most of the water has passed through, immediately remove the Moka pot from the heat source. Close the lid.
7. Tjene: Pour the freshly brewed coffee into cups. The 6-cup Moka Express yields approximately 6 ounces of coffee, suitable for espresso cups or larger cups depending on preference.

6. Rengøring og vedligeholdelse

Proper cleaning and maintenance ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Moka Express:

• Køl ned: Always allow the Moka pot to cool completely before disassembling and cleaning. Attempting to open a hot Moka pot can be dangerous.
• Skyl med vand: The Moka Express Bialetti must be rinsed only with water after use. Disassemble all three parts and rinse them thoroughly under running water.
• Undgå sæbe: Do not use soap or detergents, as they can leave residues that affect the taste of future brews and can damage the aluminum.
• No Dishwasher: The product must not be washed in the dishwasher. Dishwasher detergents can cause oxidation and discoloration of the aluminum, and may alter the taste of the coffee.
