Bialetti Moka Express Stove Top Coffee Maker, 6-Cup

This must be the best moka pot in the market. It makes brilliant coffee; keeps the aroma of the coffee intact. Even if the price is inflated by the seller, I would highly recommend this product. Do watch the video.Update: I like good coffee and used to frequent coffee shops during the weekends. Going out was a big no during COVID-19 pandemic and this moka pot along with coffee from Blue Tokai literally boosted my spirit in a big way. Cheers!!!By the way, I also like good tea specially Darjeeling tea. :-)

This coffee maker is convenient to carry, and relatively easy to use. End product, ofcourse, depends on the quality of Coffee grounds. However, this Moca Pot extracts almost all of the flavour out of the coffee grounds.Suggestion for those who are looking to buy this Moca Pot -1) Use warm/hot water to begin brewing. Do not use cold water.2) Do not overfill the water holding compartment (watch some youtube videos for instructions)3) Do not use it on high flame. Keep the flame on the lowest setting possible.4) Remove the moca pot off of the flame once sputtering starts.5) Finally, use corse to medium grain coffee powder. Avoid using fine grain powder, as it will damage the filter.

The first espresso shot I brewed in this Bialetti tasted heavenly strong with full crema! Go for it to attain Barrista-like perfect shots of espresso at home. I have used hot water which created thick crema on top. Initially, I was wondering if I need to rather select Brikka instead of Moka for thick crema, but I can attain the same intensity and thick crema without spending more in Brikka. I have used hot water and filled the filter with medium fine ground coffee - and it resulted into pure perfection! Buy Starbucks Italian Dark Roast coffee beans and used freshly ground coffee to experience Starbucks-like Italian Dark Roast espresso at home!

This size of 4 cup is slightly big. As usually we make 1 or 2 cups only and the the rest we save in fridge. But the product us very good and easy to use

Amazon shipped a defected item and was delivered late. By the time i started using and noticed that water leaking and spilling all over, it past 10days period. Amazon asked me to contact the vendor for the resolution. Vendor took almost 4 weeks with to and fro emails pictures and videos and finally gave me a resolution saying that i will get 30-40% discount if i buy again. This is not acceptable.
