Unscrew the three parts of the espresso pot, fill the base with water to the level of the safety valve and insert the filter funnel. 2. Fill the filter funnel with finely ground coffee (do not press it too much), make sure no coffee powder is left on the edge, then put it into the bottom pot and connect the top and base together tightly. 3. Heat it for a few minutes on the warmer with a light or medium flame, so that the coffee slowly flows towards the top. 4. Lift the coffee pot off the warmer, and enjoy the taste of your coffee.
