Features Stovetop Espresso Maker
Here’re some key points taken into account when trying to pick the best Stovetop Espresso Makers – sometimes called Cuban Coffee Makers.
The Material
To select the finest Stovetop Espresso Maker for you, you have to check what material it’s built from, particularly if you’ve induction hobs.
Indeed, if the espresso makers are cast aluminum, it doesn’t work with induction systems because aluminum material is non-magnetic.
You’ll have to move to a more advanced stainless steel material that works on any stove.
Important to note that not every stainless steel model has an induction-ready base.
Number of Cups (Capacity)
After choosing the material for your Stovetop Espresso Maker, you’ll need to pick the capacity you want.
Your machine must be capable of providing you with the amount of coffee you need.
The best will be picked according to the range of cups that you usually consume.
To give you an idea, a Stovetop Espresso Maker machine with a capacity of 0.6 liters produces about 3 cups of coffee.
In any case, the amount of cups advertised mainly by the companies is generally a bit overestimated, so we suggested that you go for something bigger you need.

Design
There are several designs and colors to pick from. You’d choose one that best matches your taste and needs.
As aspects of design that’d not be overlooked are the spout and the handle.
This should remain ever cool for comfortable and safe use at all times.
The spout complements this function by letting for drip-free pouring.
