How do you get crema with Bialetti Moka Express?

To get crema, advanced moka users fill the filter with coffee ground almost as fine as for a commercial espresso machine and tamp it before brewing. This might intensify the flavor, but I don’t recommend it, because you run the risk of burning out the rubber gasket.

Do Moka pots produce crema?

Moka pots (or stove top percolators) usually produce a pressure of around 1.5 bar, while most coffees require a pressure of at least around 6 bar for a crema to appear.
