Adding eclectic character to the kitchen stovetop, this polished-aluminum coffee pot features a unique octagon shape that was first designed in Italy in 1933. The unit makes six 2-ounce espresso cups of coffee in just four to five minutes and is extremely simple to use. Just fill the lower chamber with water and the top filter with fine-ground coffee. Then place the pot on the stove and heat until the water boils. Through a pressurizing process, espresso moves to the upper chamber of the pot, ready to be served. Other highlights include a flip-up top with an easy-grip knob, a stay-cool black plastic handle, and a side-pour spout. When finished using the unit, wash it by hand with warm soapy water and rinse clean. Made in Italy, the espresso maker measures 4-1/4 inches wide by 8 inches tall.
This review is from: Bialetti 6800 Moka Express 6-Cup Stovetop Espresso MakerEvery family in Italy owns one of these machines. Here are a few tips:1. In Italy this is NOT called an espresso machine, but a Moka machine. An espresso is what you would drink in bar made with a steam or high pressure machine with the crema on top.2. Smaller size Moka machine tend to make better coffee.3. Never wash the Moka with detergents, just rinse it under tap water4. You've gotta use it often for a good coffee.5. If you haven't use it in a while, make a weak coffee ("lungo") and discard6. DO NOT put the MOka in the dishwasher.7. Use drinking water. Avoid tap water especially if very chlorinated8. Never compress the coffee.9. For a strong coffee fill the filter with ground coffee and make a small cupola that slightly protrudes beyond the rim. Do not press down.10. For best coffee, heat at very low heat. It's ok if it takes 10min.11. As soon as coffee reaches the top, remove from heat12. Do not let the coffee boil13. Use good quality coffee, not too strong, medium grind (try Illy for a good commercial brand)14. Sip while still hot, enjoy!...
