Review on ☕ Alessi Moka Espresso Coffee Maker, 3 cup capacity, in sleek grey shade by Aaron Thawngzauk

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good design: coffee, tea and espresso

The biggest problem I keep encountering when using single cup moka kettles is the handle melting. This moka pot is well thought out with the handle pointing away from the pot rather than hugging it. Therefore, it tolerates heating on a gas stove very well. It uses excellent materials and makes a fantastic cup of espresso. The only downside is that the base is narrower than the photos so it doesn't fit as snugly on my gas stove, but that doesn't really bother me. The nose design is fantastic. I didn't spill a drop from it - that's more than I can say about most other brands. Well done Alessi! Great design! You have won a long-standing Bialetti customer.
