Haven't really used a mocha pot before, so I'm experimenting a little to find the right grind settings and ratios for my taste. Normally brew espresso on a flair classic. Went with this more modern design from bialetti because it also works on induction stoves.

I always spritz my beans prior to grinding, but mostly to keep the grounds from sticking to my grinder. Didn't known it also had an impact on extraction.

The primary reason for me to get this was to have a simpler workflow for a quick cup of coffee than my flair, so I've only been using it with cold water in from the start. It works pretty well I would say.
