Hi folks, I’m a bit new to the addiction club, but recently acquired the Bialetti to my addition of coffee machines. I am uncertain to what level of grind should I buy for the Bialetti? Filter or Espresso? And if I grind myself, I have an electric one, how long do I grind it for?
One of the store bought brands that’s suggested for the Moka Pot is Cafe Bustelo (yellow pack), so anything that’s got a similar grind should be A-OK.

“The grind of Cafe Bustelo is a bit coarser than an true espresso grind, but finer than standard grind: exactly what’s needed for a moka pot. The true expresso grind is too fine and can seep through the pores, clog the filter, cause incorrect pressure, result in muddy coffee and leave deposits that taste rancid.”
Thanks for the links, will read up! 👍
