Before the moka, which has speeded up the preparation of coffee, the famous black drink was prepared with the Neapolitan coffee pot, first made of copper and then of steel or aluminium. The method of preparation is not very different from that of filter coffee, but a series of particularities make it a unique product of its kind.

NEAPOLITAN COFFEE POT 6 CUPS IN ALUMINIUM

The Neapolitan is a type of coffee maker that, unlike the mocha, does not use the pressure generated by steam to push the water towards the coffee, but only the force of gravity. How to use the Neapolitan coffee maker It is necessary to explain in detail the use of this coffee maker because, as we said, it requires a different procedure compared to the now common coffee makers. The main reason is that the cuccumella is formed by different elements that are: the hollow tank where you put the coffee powder, the perforated tank that holds the water and the hollow tank, the coffee filter to be screwed on top of the hollow tank, the coffee pot from which the ready coffee comes out and the lid.

The procedure then consists of the following steps:

1) Fill the hollow tank with coffee powder, reaching the indicated limit and without crushing the powder.

2) Screw the filter on top of the tank.

3) Fill the perforated tank with water, always up to the indicated limit.

4) Insert the hollow tank into the perforated tank.

5) Add the body with the cap and screw in.

6) Place on the side with the water tank.

7) When the water starts coming out of the hole in the tank, turn off the flame and turn the Neapolitan coffee maker. To perform this operation it is important to have a firm grip, protect yourself with potholders to avoid burning yourself and turn the cuccumella upside down in one go.

8) Check the coffee tank and when there is no more water, unscrew the other tank, place the lid on it and pour the coffee.

The Masahiro knives come directly from the city of Seki, Japan.

The quality of these Masahiro knives is very high and they are characterized by an asymmetric processing of the blades: the left side of the blade is flat, the other side of the knife is beveled up to the edge and then polished. This modern Japanese blade design translates into a superior cutting capacity.

The MV series is made of molybdenum vanadium stainless steel MBS-26 (similar to a Sandvik 19C27 or a 440C and predecessor of the VG-10). The handles are riveted to a full tang with thin layers of black-stained wood pressed into a transparent (but not polished) polyamide.

Recommended use: Meat, fish, fish cleaning

Country of production: Japan
Type of production: Industrial
Blade: Hitachi stainless steel MBS-26 at 58HRC
Handle: Synthetic, riveted
Blade length: 205mm.
Blade thickness: 1.5mm.
Total length: 335mm.
Weight: 114g.
Cleaning and maintenance: hand wash - not dishwasher safe
