Bialetti Black Moka Express

The Moka. Unique and original since 1933.
The brainchild of Alfonso Bialetti, in almost one hundred years of history, the Bialetti Moka has won a place in the hearts and kitchens of all Italians.
An excellent example of Art Deco, the Moka Express has become an icon and a symbol of Made in Italy, present in the permanent collection of the Milan Triennale and the MoMA in New York.
Over the years, Bialetti has perfected its characteristic design, maintaining the functional and use characteristics of the Moka: the octagonal aluminum boiler, the exclusive inspectable and easy-to-clean valve, the filter and the collecting chamber that holds the essence of coffee extraction, black, full-bodied and hot. The Moka Color is now also available in two different colors, a red version with a bold character and a black version to add a touch of elegance to your kitchen.

How To

1. Start by pouring the water at room temperature into the Moka boiler and filling it up to the level of the safety valve. To avoid making your coffee too watery, do not fill it over this level.

2. Now choose your preferred ground coffee blend. Caution! The blend must be specifically ground for a Moka pot and not excessively fine. Generously fill the Moka pot's funnel, without pressing down the coffee.

3. A little secret? Set the heat to low and take all the time necessary; it is worth waiting a few minutes longer so that you can enjoy an excellent coffee. When the coffee has completely risen into the collection chamber, turn off the heat.

4. Now for the crucial moment: tasting. To fully enjoy the aromas released, we advise you to drink the coffee as soon as it is poured into the cup.
