4 out of 5 stars Great but corroded- PLEASE HELP!   June 27, 2008
Virginia D. Green
I absolutely love my Moka Espress and always try to heat the coffee at the lowest possible setting on my stove. I either heated it a little too high or did not let it completely dry out after cleaning it one day, because it corroded on the inside (where the water goes). There is now white spots inside and the espresso tastes really funny. I know your not supposed to use soap to clean it, but is there some way I can remove the corrosion safely so I can continue to use the espresso maker? Or is it ruined? Please help! Thanks!!

i should have it returned at the first.
it leaks, it's brown and it's sucks.
everytime i unscrew it to clean it, the strainer
comes off.
i have been using this coffee pots for over twenty years.
i should have gone to kmart.



5 out of 5 stars Best $25 I've spent   June 23, 2008

5 trips to Starbucks and this little baby is paid for!! It makes great espresso, and is easy to use.. especially if you read the reviews/tips left on here by other users, it takes alot of the guess work out for you!! My first couple pots were bitter (like it warns they may be) but after that it made perfect coffee everytime!

I purchased the 3 cup Bialetti about 8 months ago and it keeps getting better and better. Up until recently I used pre-ground beans from Starbucks and Lavazza which was excellent and produced excellent espresso. Now I buy whole beans and grind them before brewing and it tastes even better than when I used pre-ground. I like it strait into an espresso cup or with some heated milk. I also use an Aerolatte To Go, Black to make a cappuccino on the weekends. You really can't beat having great espresso for well under $50 worth of equipment! An excellent product that will serve you well.

The first one of these I had, I used for 25 years. I finally ended up letting it overheat on the stove, which doesn't seem to help the rubber gasket any. If you want really good espresso, this is the way to go. As long as I don't forget, and leave this one on the stove, it's probably the last one I'll need to buy in my lifetime. I'm using it every morning and thoroughly enjoying it. Carpe diem, et carpe Deo.
