Beautiful and well made!

I threw this away after two weeks. Too big for single use, and the base would stain after EVERY use and it doesnt clean away the coffee drip stains, the yellow becomes brown streaks. not a good look! I recycled it.

Received the first one and saw it was missing the handle. Made a return and had a replacement ordered and now the replacement also arrived without a handle. Went through the reviews to see if anyone else had this issue but did not see any others. Will be returning again and hopefully the next replacement will arrive with a handle.

This was my first proper go at owning and using my own perculator. I love the colour, and the build quality seems fine. I have seen some comments in his sturdy the hinge for the to lid is (some say not very). I feel it’s pretty good, though it will certainly fail if you tried. Basically it’s not flimsy, but it’s not a tank either…
I clean after every use simply by rinsing with hot water. I read somewhere that using washing up liquid can affect the aluminium and/or the oils left from the coffee itself. Not sure how much I believe, but so far so good (i.e. problem free).
Colour is vivid and the build quality feels very good. I expect to have this for a while!
Beware it is capable of spurting coffee across the stove top if you don’t pay attention with the lid open!
Would certainly buy a bigger one if I was making coffee for more people.

Funziona come dovrebbe

This makes espresso just as good as any coffee store. I’ve used similar makers but the espresso isn’t as tasty.

I got the 6-cup green Rainbow Moka Pot. Bialleti rate their pots in espresso servings. My wife and I use the Moka when we want to make milk drinks. A 6-cup machine is about right for brewing 2 American-style coffees with milk. So this pot can brew anything from 2-6 servings depending on your usage.
The green 6-cup Rainbow has a design that’s a blend of retro and contemporary. It looks gorgeous alongside a classic KitchenAid blender if you like a slightly retro kitchen. It’s an absolute piece of art, and it makes good coffee.
Moka coffee historically was quite bitter due to boiling pre-ground dark Italian coffee quite hard. This lead people to call it “espresso”. Moka is not brewed under much pressure, so it’s not true espresso. What you get is a very concentrated small serving of coffee which draws strong flavors from the bean. If I brew the same coffee back to back in the Moka versus an Aeropress, the Aeropress is smoother and more balanced, but the Moka explodes with flavor like an espresso shot. They’re very different experiences.
My recipe for light roast: Grind coffee medium-coarse as for Aeropress. Put freshly boiled water in the base, use a towel to close. Heat pot over medium-low heat with lid open. Watch until pot sputters. Closw lid and run cold tap water down the side to arrest boiling. Pour into 2 mugs. For black coffee, dilute with water to taste. For milk drinks, do the same, and top with milk. Frother optional but recommended.
I love the Moka Pot. They’re very beautiful so you want to display it on your shelf. They’re a little finicky if you want to get the best coffee from them, especially from lighter roasts. The Moka was designed for pre-ground dark roasts, which brew much more easily but produce an offensively bitter coffee to my tastes. If you instead use a good fresh ground specialty coffee and manage your heat, you can get an “espresso-like” cup for a fraction of the cost. Great for small shots or milk drinks. Highly recommended.

Porządnie wykonana, nic nie przecieka, skręca się i myje łatwo. Razem z podstawką do płyty indukcyjne działa jak trzeba. Polecam!

Schöner Hingucker in klassischer Mokka-Größe für 6 Tassen.. Und wie alle Alu-Bialettis wird der Geschmack mit jeder Anwendung besser durch das Material (bei Edelstahl ist das leider nicht der Fall). Darf allerdings nur mit Wasser gespült werden, nie mit Spüli oder in den Geschirrspüler. Und unbedingt vor Gebrauch 2-3 maligen Erhitzen mit reinem Wasser, um das Alu vorzubereiten.
