About a year ago, I bought a moka pot on ebay (one of only two purchases I've ever made on ebay). After making several attempts to make coffee with it, and failing miserably, I just polished it up and put it on display.
I recently decided to try it again (after finding a few instructions online), but I've had the exact same results -- no coffee! Only water! I don't get it, since the hot water can only come up through the coffee grounds before it pours out.
Anyway...I just thought I'd share. Here's a picture of it.
