A moka pot, or stovetop coffee maker, uses steam pressure in the lower chamber to push hot water up through a basket of ground coffee. The result is strong and concentrated – closer to espresso than to filter, though brewed at far lower pressure than an espresso machine. This page lists moka pot coffee beans that the roaster itself recommends for a stovetop moka pot. The brew method is read from the roaster's description by AI and labelled as such; coffees for which the roaster names no brew method are not included.

Grind a little coarser than for espresso, fill the basket level without tamping, and take the pot off the heat as soon as the coffee starts to sputter. Medium and darker roasts are the usual choice, because a moka pot easily brings out bitterness in very light ones. Coffees sold for espresso often work too: compare espresso beans. For milky drinks, the chocolatey & nutty coffees are a natural fit. Or compare coffee beans from UK roasters.
