| This stovetop percolator make great tasting coffee or espresso. The 3-cups are 3 espresso cups, about a shot glass full, not a coffee cup. It is easy to clean and takes up no room which is great for me, I didn't have room for a coffee maker. |

| Made great coffee, but rusted very quickly!! Don't make the same mistake I did and leave it in the sink with water; clean and dry it shortly after use. |
Too much hype

I guess I will be brief with this....
1. Has a plastic handle. Mine broke off in less than a year.
2. It is made of aluminum. Aluminum has been shown to cause alzheimers disease.

The Bialetti Buzz

| Review Date: November 5, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Joel S. Gossman, Hollywood Hills, USA, Earth, Milky Way |
I always loved dark, strong coffee and I've always been a lazy dish washer. After a trip to Italy in 2005 I started making coffee in a Napoletana coffee maker. I liked it, but it's a pain in the ass to clean, so I bought a Bialetti. WOW !
The coffee from the Napoletana was very strong and every morning I was drinking the equivalent of 5+ espressos. While I was accustomed to strong coffee, for the first time in my life I would feel a caffeine buzz. I switched to the Bialetti and found it easier to clean and faster to brew. I use what I consider high grade coffee, usually French roast from Trader Joe here in LA.
While the word is to never use detergent to clean the thing, I just have to use some occasionally. The thing is bullet proof except for the gasket. If you can buy a couple extra gaskets when you buy the Bialetti, do so. The gaskets are not widely available and last week when my gasket went, I ended up buying a new maker. Problem is that it's another brand and I don't like it as much as the real deal.
Some words of advice:
1. Be sure that you screw the top on correctly so that the thing doesn't leak. It makes an awful scream on the stove when it does.
2. If you are not used to lots of caffeine, be very careful. These things make coffee at least twice as potent as any other breweing method. I acutally overdosed on caffeine and now drink almost exclusively decaf. |
Perfect Appliance

| The 6-cup Moka pot is the perfect size for two people - 3 shots of expresso each. As others have already stated, keep the heat on low-med, take it off the heat right before the liquid starts to boil, don't twist the top off using the handle when taking apart and just rinse it out with water to clean. |
