Good coffee pot well built and easy to use. I was very impressed at how quickly the bottom of the pot cooled down to be able to actually grab it without a potholder and disassemble the unit for cleaning or for making another pot of coffee it is the perfect size for 1-2 people to use I use it every day to make coffee for my wife, while I only drink coffee occasionally. When I asked her how the coffee turned out taste wise she said it was very good I haven’t tried the coffee but that part is pretty much the same with percolation I would somewhat assume, so I mainly am reviewing the overall build and design and quality of the unit and would give it a 5/5 so I would definitely recommend for the money it’s a good pot.

a year or so ago i tried getting into moka pot and used what everyone thinks of as the default moka pot coffee, which is cafe bustelo. i didn't have a good time, even the 100% arabica version is nasty and super bitter. at the time i thought the problem was moka pot and i wrote it off back then. cafe cubano uses a lot of sugar and sweetened condensed milk to make it drinkable. this is just my own opinion that probably makes me sound like a coffee snob but if you have to do all of that to make coffee palatable then it isn't good unless you absolutely love drinking that style of coffee specifically. good coffee should be drinkable black as a baseline in my opinion and anything you add to it can make it better, but if it's undrinkable while black then the coffee is bad or you're doing something very wrong with its preparation. with all this said, if you get a moka pot and get cafe bustelo and you hate it, the coffee is the problem, not the moka pot, and you'll get out of it what you put in it. this time around i finally have a proper grinder and am using my own whole bean specialty coffee that i like drinking as filter coffee and it comes out great in a moka pot. as many others have said it's not a substitute for espresso but it is somewhere between that and filter coffee or something like french press. to me it tastes like french press but like 50% stronger than i can get from actual french press. i've been using a 1zpresso ZP6 special which i got for pour over and it works well. you don't have to spend this much, you can get cheap affordable grinders like the cheaper kingrinder models and they'll also work well. anyways onto the title of the review, there are a bunch of reviews saying the filter is cheap and collapses. read the manual and use it as instructed, not as you see random people on youtube telling you how to use it or how their italian grandma always used it. "Insert the funnel and fill it with ground coffee (do not tamp). Remove any coffee grounds on the edge of the funnel." this is from the manual. it's left a little vague but i see people online using the aluminum moka express and instructing other by putting a heaping mound of coffee in the basket and then flattening it with the back of a spoon (this is tamping) or screwing the top onto the heaping mound (this is functionally the same as tamping. tamping is forced compression). i don't know why people do this, if they want it to be stronger or they're trying to increase pressure to make it more like espresso. look on youtube or anywhere on the internet for how to use a moka pot and you will quickly come across a lot of people saying to use it like that. however the filter for the moka express is built different, it does seem to be durable enough to handle that but it's still going against the manufacturers instructions. i've tried it with 3 different coffees now and haven't seen any signs yet of it collapsing like it has in negative reviews on here. if you're using whole beans, you can fill the basket level with beans for an easy volumetric measurement, grind them, and then fill the basket with those. the basket will be overfilled because coffee grounds are fluffy but you can tamp that in if you want. any beans that fit level in the basket prior to grinding can fit in the basket after grinding and won't collapse the filter. i 3d printed a dosing funnel (you can also make one easily out of the top of a soda bottle if you cut it right), i WDT, and then i just tap it to settle it with the basket either in the base without water or sitting in an empty shot glass which also makes for a good basket holder as long as the tapered underside of the basket is supported and it's not tapping directly on the bottom of the spout part that goes down into the tank, then i level it off with the flat back side of a butter knife held at an angle to gently compress it level until it all sit in the basket level. if you're using pre ground coffee, fill the basket loosely with a spoon, tap the side or tap it down in the base or something like a shot glass if you want to settle it, and then level it off by scraping the extra off the top with something like the back side of a knife or credit card or anything like this. if you have a mound of coffee, scrape it off level before putting it together to brew. this is how it was designed to be used and you will never collapse the filter using it like this. if you want to brew with a mound of coffee tamped into the basket, get an aluminum moka express because those ones can handle this misuse.

This coffee maker is great - super convenient and quick, all metal (aside from the gasket), not aluminum, and it's easy to clean every part. It's just what I was looking for and couldn't find with electric coffee makers at a reasonable price. Plus it takes up much less space! The way it makes your coffee customizable by brewing strong concentrations is a bonus for me, as I'm not a coffee enthusiast, just a casual coffee drinker. I really enjoy this feature more than I expected, especially if I want to share the coffee with someone else who has different tastes. I hesitated to buy this because of the reviews saying their item rusted, stained, or molded (???) on the inside quickly. But since Bialetti is reputable and there aren't really any alternatives with a similar reputation, I chalked this up to user error and I'm so glad that I did. Stainless steel CAN stain or rust if you don't take care of it properly, it just takes more abuse for that to happen. This item is definitely all stainless steel - the inside parts look and feel nothing like the aluminum Bialetti that my dad has. The instructions are really clear that you need to rinse after every use and keep every part dry. I rinse, thoroughly towel dry, and store it taken apart on a towel every time I use it. Dry wash cloth, paper towel, whatever - just get it as dry as possible and then let the rest of the moisture air dry. Keep the lid open. If you put it back together immediately and leave the lid closed, it can't air dry. I haven't had any issues. Staining can happen from not properly rinsing it and letting the coffee grounds build up and leak the next time you make coffee. My dad's old aluminum Bialetti is VERY stained on the outside because of this. Even then, it's not like the staining breaks it, and a bit of water staining is not going to hurt you at all. But if you care about keeping it nice for as long as possible like I do, be sure to rinse and dry after every use and descale with vinegar every once in a while. Additionally, please follow the instruction of brewing and trashing three times before use. There is clear industrial oil inside the parts when you first get it. This is unavoidable. Personally, I broke the rules and used dish soap before brewing and trashing since it's not aluminum. The only thing about the design that I don't like is how floppy the lid is. You need to hold it down by pushing the little flap forward while you pour, otherwise it will spill everywhere. But that's not really a big enough deal to take a star off. I also kind of wish they sold a 2 or 3 cup version, as I personally have to brew my coffee half decaf with it to avoid drinking too much caffeine since you can't just fill up the basket half-way. I hope this was helpful!

Been using this pot for a couple months now, and the coffee is great. However, I found something MOST PEOPLE MISSED since I don't see it in the reviews! There's a TINY GAP between the wall and bottom of the main coffee pot. It's pretty hard to tell at first glance but I noticed that even when rinsing the pot clean and drying it upside down, I see stains of coffee drip off it. I was so confused since I thought I wiped every surface free of coffee until I saw THE GAP. There's definitely a layer of coffee silt that just settled and hardened at the bottom, and me being a clean freak, it's bothering me that every batch of coffee I make from now on also touches that layer of old coffee. But idk, maybe it will enhance the flavor like how restaurants use 100 year old broth or sourdough starter 😅. Other notes: The "4 cups" detail is not your American cups, maybe espresso size? but to be honest I get 2 servings from a pot when making lattes (since they are mostly milk) My filter didn't collapse, and I don't see rust like the pictures in the reviews, although I do see some rust forming on the valve on the inside of the water chamber, but I figured since it shouldn't touch the water it's ok. (Maybe temperature or water type (hard/soft) may affect rust formation?) If you don't overfill the basket with grounds and you use the pot as instructed (use lower temps, etc) you should expect a good cup of espresso-like coffee. 👍 I also preboil my water to avoid the bitter coffee taste. Another note: the gasket and filter can be removed for cleaning easily with a spoon. But it doesn't require much force, so be careful not to dent the metal. Overall it's a nice pot, minus the impossible to clean gap. I recommend it if you don't want to buy an espresso machine but want a coffee closer to espresso.

TLDR: Works great, tastes good, easy to use and enjoyable experience for me and guests. Great little coffee maker. I am very happy with it. Even a family member comes to visit often now just to have some coffee. They never did that before tasting this coffee. I get a call or text almost daily now from them asking if they can come over for a cup of coffee. They have a normal coffee pot at home and sometimes they would go to buy a cup of coffee. Now, they just want this. I admit, I enjoy the company. I was going to buy them one, but decided I like having guests for coffee. :) The instructions are clear and easy to understand. It is easy to use and is fun to make. I use it on my induction cooktop and it is very fast to brew. It feels sturdy and durable. The lid on top covers just fine. This is a small coffee maker and I can get about 4 espresso cups or one larger cup (not to the brim of either cup size if we are counting # of cups). I grind beans fresh for each time I brew. I use a small manual grinder and it is perfect. The basket for the ground coffee holds about 2 TBSP. I use the basket (if it is dry) to scoop up beans and put in the grinder. If the basket is wet, I use a measuring spoon. I have made lots of coffee with it since it arrived and got the hang of it quickly. I am sensitive to smells and it is noticeable to me when I left it on the stove a tad too long. The smell changes and you might notice it too. That was helpful to learn the moment to remove from the heat. Be sure to read the instructions that come with it if you are new to this like me.

This is an absolutely AMAZING moka pot. If you’re not sure if you should buy this one, buy it. I will tell you exactly why this is an amazing product and the steps to keep it that way. I wanted to give it some time before I wrote a review on this since I have seen others have said their moka pot has either rusted or had something else unfortunate happen. It has been about 3 weeks since I’ve had this and I have had NO issues. The most important part about using this moka pot is to clean it thoroughly. I would assume that the buyers who reported that theirs rusted did not care for them properly. Once you finish, rinse your moka pot with warm water and dry each part completely with a paper towel/towel. I have been making coffee with this wonderful product everyday and it never fails to disappoint. The thing about moka pots is that the product itself will almost always perform perfectly, and the issues are almost always caused by the owners own mistakes. With proper usage and proper care, this moka pot will pour out amazing coffee each time. Here are the steps: Step 1: Once you get the moka pot, open the manual and do a quick read of the simple instructions. There could be a few things you didn’t know, so it’s important just to give it a look. Step 2: Fill the basket up with coffee grounds. You can either use a scale or just fill the coffee up to the top of the basket and level it out. I’m pretty sure the baskets are designed to be filled up all the way. DO NOT tamp your grounds. This is to ensure that water can easily pass through the grounds. The most you should ever do is tap the sides of the basket to level out the grounds. (I do not tap the basket down or tap the sides anymore because I found that the water still has a difficult time passing through this way as well) Step 3: Pre-boil some water. Many people say it’s important to use hot water so the coffee grounds are not in contact with heat for too long therefore preventing the grounds from burning and causing an unpleasant flavor. Step 3: Turn the stovetop on to medium heat. If temperature is too high the extraction with happen too quickly. Medium is perfect. Step 4: Pour pre-boiled water into the bottom chamber. Fill just below the steam valve. If you fill too much and the water blocks the steam valve, the pressure could build up and your moka pot could explode. So this is a very important step. Step 5: Drop basket into the bottom chamber Step 6: Screw on the top of the moka pot all the way. Use a towel to grab the base so you don’t burn yourself. Step 7: Place the moka pot on the stove and watch the magic happen. You’ll see the coffee start to fill up the upper chamber and once you hear it start to sputter you will take it off and run the bottom under cold water to stop the brewing process. There you go! You’ve just made amazing moka pot coffee. Now, because moka pots rely heavily on how you use it, there’s many ways you can tweak the process and develop your own brewing technique. The steps I gave you are just the basics. Okay so real quick. When you clean the moka pot remember to dry it THOROUGHLY. Separate all three parts of the moka pot. Rise each part with warm water. The bottom part and basket are the easiest to clean because one only has water in it and the other is just a small basket. The top part is still extremely easy to clean, but because this is where the coffee sits it takes about a second more to clean. Just make sure you get all the coffee out so your next brew is as fresh as it can be. Now when you dry, simply just take a paper towel and get all the water out. Make sure it’s completely dry so you don’t run into any issues. When you’re done, just assemble it as normal and don’t screw the top part on too tight. Leave it attached but keep it loose. This is to make sure you don’t wear out the rubber gasket. There’s so much more information on the internet that will teach you how to use it even better, but I hope this helps too!

Definitely a 21st century upgrade. Sleek, beautiful, well made. I've owned about 6 or 7 of the original model. Had to return two that were made in other countries but were poorly manufactured. Although not Italian made which generally means quality and well-made (think Armani, Porsche) this new model, designed in Italy but manufactured in China, is well-made, fits together smoothly - and of course, makes great coffee. But don't let the cup size fool you. A "cup" of expresso in Italy is not a standard 8oz cup in the U.S.A. My new 6 "cup" moka pot brews about 8 oz of expresso. Although the new pot works on an induction stove, I use mine on my gas stove. Perfecto!

Min Moka Pot är för fyra koppar och fungerar bra på min induktionsspis. Styrkan på kaffet lyckas jag varierar väldigt mycket, beroende på hur många gram kaffe, hur fint jag maler, om jag använder aeropress pappersfilter eller inte, och hur låg temperatur jag har på spisplattan. Jag har fått fram kaffe som påminner om bryggning i filterbryggare såväl som kaffe som är halvvägs till espresso. Utan filterpapper och på mitten temperaturen på spisen, så blir det ungefär samma styrka som filterkaffe. Det står att det är för fyra koppar kaffe, men... Som mest kan jag fylla Moka potten med 190 ml vatten och som för det mesta får jag ut 120-135 ml kaffe. Så om du är van vid enkel espresso så stämmer det att det är fyra koppar, men kaffet är inte i närheten så stark och om du är van vid 2 dl per kopp, så känns koppen drygt halvfull. Om jag bara brygger kaffe åt mig själv är denna lagom stor eller på gränsen till för liten. Om jag skulle brygga kaffe åt mig själv och någon annan, så skulle jag köpa en större.

Snygg, bra kvalitet, fungerar bra.

I recently bought this large moka pot (double espresso size), and I’m really pleased with it. It makes a rich, tasty coffee very quickly, and the quality of the brew is excellent. The pot itself looks beautiful and quite aesthetic, which I really like. It also feels very stable on the stove, so it’s comfortable and safe to use. Overall, it’s efficient, well-designed, and a pleasure to use every morning. I’m very happy with this purchase.

Amazing colour and quality
