Great product, thank you

I have mainly used a Cafetiere for making my coffee but having seen the Moka type pot in use a number of times in different settings and viewed various reviews, I thought I would give one a try. I usually like my coffee fairly strong and in sufficient quantity (large mug size) to keep me satisfied for a few hours between mugs. I initially placed my order for the 3 cup Bialetti pot but immediately revised my Amazon order to the larger 4 cup. In my view it would be better to have a larger unit than have a smaller unit and not have enough capacity. I glad I made the 4 cup choice. In addition to the Amazon packaging my Moka pot arrived well packaged by the manufacturer Bialetti, with clearly written and easy to understand Operating instructions in multiple languages included. Read and follow these OI's and you should have no problems. Likewise, use common sense when handling and cleaning the more delicate parts, such as the coffee holder "funnel", and avoid holding it by the narrow stem while vigorously shaking out heavy wet coffee grains, especially if you wish the stem to remain attached to the funnel. If you ignore this common sense advice and manage to break it off, this is NOT a manufacturing issue or poor design. Anything can be broken if you try hard enough or use it in a way for which it was not intended. In my view, this Bialetti Moka is a good design, of good quality, and correctly used produces a good cup of coffee. Obviously these three points are my own personal view with the last point being dependent on your own taste in coffee brand and variations in preparation method, but in using this Moka pot you have the opportunity to produce a pot of nose tingling, great looking, hot, steamy, strong and great tasting coffee to suit your own personal preference. That is the key. In the Bialetti Moka Express Aluminium Stovetop Coffee Maker (4 Cup) you have the ideal tool to do the job. Since purchase several months ago I have used this Moka pot to make all my coffee, currently on my 7th 227g bag of my favourite coffee brand. It took me several pot cycles to arrive at the best heat setting on my cooking appliance (electric hob) which is usually the setting I use for a simmer/low boil. You will need to experiment yourself, as most appliances will vary from gas to electric etc and individual heat settings, but my advice would be (as per Bialetti OI's) use a medium heat setting to start and adjust your heat up or down to suit, based on results you get. As it only takes a short time from placing on the hob to start to produce liquid in the top pot, DON'T wander off even for a short time to do something else. Stay and watch the pot at all times it is on the hob with the lid up and heat is being applied. This is after all part of the coffee making experience and should be savoured. I "preheat" my electric hob at setting 4, place the pot towards the edge with the lid up and so the handle is off to one side so it has less direct heat exposure from the hob ring below, and reduce the setting to 3. Keep watching (and smelling). You should soon smell the familiar aroma of your chosen coffee wafting up to your nostrils and if you continue watching you will observe the initial flow of dark liquid gold. I close the lid after the first third of liquid has appeared and turn off the heat source at this point. On hearing the final bubbling and gurgling as the last of the liquid fills the top pot I remove the pot to a cork mat. I find the aroma of freshly brewed coffee is amazing. I boil a small amount of fresh water in my kettle in tandem, splashing a small amount in my chosen mug (to pre heat the mug). After allowing to stand for a minute or so I then pour the coffee from the moka usually accompanied by a satisfactory amount of "froth", topping my mug off with freshly boiled water as required/to taste. Less dilute equals stronger coffee, again down to personal preference. Cleaning the Bialetti Moka in warm water is simple and effective. I use a soft none abrasive washing up sponge if needed, and then immediately dry all parts inside and out with a tea towel before storage. I only reassemble the next time I am ready to make a fresh pot. I am pleased to report my Bialetti Moka Express Aluminium Stovetop Coffee Maker (4 Cup) pot is still in the same condition as when I first received it and the coffee produced is perfect. I would recommend this item and this manufacturer and if given the choice would buy this item again. If you follow the Bialetti Operating Instructions and handle with care it is likely this will last you a good number of years before it needs replacing. Purchase one and enjoy your coffee. M.

Hola andaba buscando una cafetera pequeña para mi mujer, ya que en la grande que tenemos siempre sobraba cafe de más. Esta es bonita de buen material y hace el cafe de maravilla. Eso sí, ojo con el tema de las medidas. LA MIA ES EL MODELO DE 4 TAZAS Y SOLO HACE 200 ML DE CAFÉ, es decir 1 TAZA GRANDE COMO MÁXIMO. En el video se explica bien claro... RESUMIENDO???: .... RECOMIENDO SU COMPRA 100 por 100.

ممتاز جداً وخاصة القهوة ساخنه على طول ما تبرد
