Review on ☕ Mixpresso Aluminum Moka Coffee Maker: Ideal Stovetop Espresso Maker for Gas or Electric Stoves by Alex Britton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect for a cup of coffee

First photo: box. Was everything in Portuguese? I'm not sure what the language is, but my knowledge of Spanish helped me understand it. It says it makes 3 cups of espresso for anyone who asks. Second picture: For size reference/comparison, this is next to a slightly larger than average mug. very small and easy to store third picture: the elastic at the bottom of the top half which I mention later in the review. The box says it makes 3 espressos, but I use the entire contents + almost the same amount of milk/cream for about one cup of coffee. I've found you need about 2-2.5 tablespoons of coffee to fill it up (I use Cafe Bustelo Expresso coffee). Perfect for me as I usually only brew coffee for one, but you can increase the size if you drink/serve more coffee. Very easy to clean although the elastic at the bottom of the top half will never be as white as it was no matter how many times I wash it. I think it's just a side effect of making coffee, I'm not worried about that. I have an electric range and was concerned the handle might melt from the heat, but so far that hasn't been a problem. I hope it stays that way. To be honest it does its job, can't complain.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
