adsman: Thanks. I found a good link on the moka:
Moka Brewing
Moka Pot stovetop brewers produce a dense concentrated cup that's something between espresso and Turkish coffee. Coffee is placed into a filter between the lower chamber (that you fill with water) and the upper chamber that will contain the finished beverage after brewing. Since the water is forced through the cake of coffee by pressure, the process bears more resemblance to espresso extraction that infusion (gravity-based) brewing.

There is a store near by where I can get lavazza coffee beans and their espresso grind so I can also vouch for the quality of this coffee.
