Product Description
With all the expensive espresso makers sold around the world, native Italians prefer espresso from stovetop espresso makers and more Italians use Bialetti for their stovetop Italian coffee. For an excellent cup of Italian coffee, the classic eight-side household coffeepot is considered a true Italian tradition. The Moka Espress boasts a lot of records and, as such, is the most copied coffee-maker! With sturdy aluminum construction, the Moka Express is a product that actually improves with constant use. The unit is extremely simple to use. Just fill the lower chamber with water and the filter with ground espresso coffee. Place the pot on the stove and heat until the water boils. As it does, the liquid espresso moves to the upper chamber of the pot, ready to be poured into an awaiting espresso cup. After that, all you need to do is enjoy the delicious nectar of coffee.

 Wonderful product! July 6, 2008
L. Olson (Connecticut, USA)
We became spoiled with excellent coffee during a trip to Spain. After researching how the Spanish coffee is made, we learned that Spanish households all have a simple stovetop coffee maker like the Bialetti. So we ordered it and it is FANTASTIC! It is simple to use, sturdy, and makes the same wonderful coffee we enjoyed in Spain. And what a value for $20!!!!!!
 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 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.
