I've wateched heaps of videos, about moka pots, and few mention that importance of the water level, and not one metioned how to keep the valve clean .
I found one that reccomended soaking your pot in half vinegar/half water - which i did a few months ago . But its not untill this happened, did i specifically look up about the valve , and test it . It didn't mention water level.
Ive checked the pot, its fine.... amazingly.
Im yet to talk to her to discover what lead to this - its never happened to me in all my years.
Mind you, its not so important now as i prefer a pour over style now to my stove top.
But ill ask her about thr water level.🤔
Thanks so much for explaining why it happened.
She also forgot to put the filter in - hence why coffee grounds went everyehere 😏
Really appreciate you explaining why . Now i can explain this to her, and hopefully it'll never happen again.🤗
@Ontheroad oh she used the basket, jist not the metal filter that goes over it . I wonder if dome grains got in the bottom and clogged the valve 🤔
I grabbed a mit and doused the whole pot with cold water to reduce any pressure left and threw it in the sink . And the valve seems fine .... although i am yet to road test the pot with just water.
