moka pot
This year marks the 90th anniversary of when the moka pot was invented. When using the moka pot, there are usually two distinct camps: those who swear by it and those who swear at it. You’re either hot or cold about it, with very little middle ground.
While most everything is shut down, including our favorite local cafe or coffee shop, it means we’re brewing more coffee at home than we had been used to. While the “need” for coffee has been put in its proper place, in light of everything else swirling around it is also a welcome distraction … especially when it comes to experimenting with different brew methods. That brings us to the moka pot.
When you think about it, we live in an incredible time in the progression of history. Born a hundred years ago and we would've missed out on the sport (and lifestyle) we've come to love ... mountain biking. Even on a yearly basis we see technological advancements within mountain biking as well as riders pushing the boundaries of what is deemed as "extreme" farther and father. It's almost comical to see late 80s DH races on grainy video footage ... narrow bars, sketchy brakes, short travel bikes, and wild clothes.
