Like many people, I sort of use then neglect my stovetop espresso maker between uses. They are so ubiquitous, the design has been around so long and they are such a simple design, it always felt to me like they were more-or-less maintenance free. Although I understood the corrosive nature of aluminum, it never seemed to be a problem. With that said, this article pointed out some common sense and easy to follow maintenance tips that can help keep mine going for a lifetime, while brewing the best tasting coffee it has to offer. I have now been educated, enlightened and will no longer handle my stovetop espresso maker in such a brutish manner, but only with the utmost respect it deserves from this day forward.
