โ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!
Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

I boil the water in a kettle and then put it in the bottom and on the stove with the rest of the apperatus. I've never had it be finnicky since I've started the brew from warm.
The real issue with the Moka is that the metal superstructure gets overheated and it causes the coffee to scorch. I've had that problem my entire life and never cared enough about coffee to go and try figure it out, but after speaking with some of my friends we found that starting from warm was the key to a foolproof Moka.
