In my case it was bugs. It had stored the boots and coffeemaker among other stuff in a box in the basement. Once I had taken them out of the box and in a neighboring room, mayhem must have started. Travel plans changed and I forgot to put the stuff back. 6 months later a layer right through the climbing boots was gone. Looked like a chain saw had walked through it. The ring in the biagletti looked like the rest of a deer after a pack of wolves had come over for dinner. Friends had the same problem. I doubt that the weather had much impact. Dark cellar, all concrete.

Thanks.. I didn't realize how much goes into purchasing good coffee-- of course "good" is subjective. Grinding your own coffee seems cool but many times i just want my coffee and go .. but seems like it can be worth it if have the time.

I have a cafetera. Its pretty simple but makes 1 or 2 cups of coffee per use

Do you have a cafetiere or a Moka pot?

When it was purchased for me, they said it was a cafetera but your right. It's exactly the same thing...

I don't think so. I think a Moka pot produces slightly better coffee when done right (much harder to master too). Closer to an espresso than a standard cafetiere.

Where did you get it from?

ordered it on amazon. Someone suggested looking into it.

Sounds like moths or something.
