For over 80 years, the Moka stovetop coffee maker by Bialetti has been a symbol of elegance and simplicity. Since the 50s, Moka coffee (very similar to an espresso), has become one of the most popular Italian coffees. The aluminium base of the Moka Express with its 8 Bialetti-specific sides, facilitates the diffusion of heat to improve the aroma of your coffee. Leader in the market of Italian stovetop coffee makers, the Bialetti brand offers you a guaranteed quality. The Italian coffee maker also built the reputation of the brand based on their original design. The handle on the Moka Express is simple and elegant. It ensures security and optimal grip.

 

How to make a perfect Italian coffee:

• Select a quality blend, suitable for the production of coffee for the Moka.
• Fill the boiler up to the lower level of the safety valve, without exceeding it and using freshwater, possibly low in limestone.
• Fill the filter generously, without pressing the coffee powder, forming a small gutter and avoiding dust escaping on the edges of the boiler. Close the coffee pot, screwing the collector firmly onto the boiler, and place it on the stove.
• The flame must never envelop the coffee maker but remain inside the bottom of the same, in order to allow extraction inadequate times and not too quickly. As soon as you start to hear the typical Moka gurgle, the coffee is ready and you will need to turn off the fire immediately.
• Never let excess coffee boil: this would burn it, compromising its success and making it too bitter.
• Enjoy hot coffee, as soon as it is ready, remember to mix the contents of the collector: the coffee extracted at the end, in fact, is less full-bodied than that leaked at the beginning of boiling.
