The trick is to stop the brewing the moment it stops flowing and starts sputtering. But it‘ll still be rather strong coffee. It was supposed to be the next best thing to espresso when invented, after all
I also own a Bialetti Kaliffa (the rather rare precursor to the Brikka) and the crema valve is also an improvement. Gets a little closer to espresso thanks to the higher pressure

Also pre boiling the water helps. I used to find it tasted burnt, but now I like it.
Aeropress is less of a hassle to clean, but I do like the taste of moka pot coffee when I have time. Chemex (pourover) is for my daily cup though.
The pour over method is my daily driver as well. It makes a decent cup.
