Great information there,
@Drubbing . I don't share your view of Kahava but personal taste is clearly a very subjective.
My process for using the pot follows a similar path to yours with the exception that I fill the chamber with cold water and leave it on until the bottom chamber is empty. Love your idea of removing the pot from the stove when its half full and will try that tomorrow morning. Cold water has always been the advice that I've received so I will stick with that.
Thanks for sharing your process. Another tweak that I will make to mine.
