Rainbow Moka Pot in Green, 6 Cup Stove Top Espresso Maker - Aluminum Cafetera for Ground Coffee, Italian Coffee Maker for Home Brewing

I got the 6-cup green Rainbow Moka Pot. Bialleti rate their pots in espresso servings. My wife and I use the Moka when we want to make milk drinks. A 6-cup machine is about right for brewing 2 American-style coffees with milk. So this pot can brew anything from 2-6 servings depending on your usage. The green 6-cup Rainbow has a design that's a blend of retro and contemporary. It looks gorgeous alongside a classic KitchenAid blender if you like a slightly retro kitchen. It's an absolute piece of art, and it makes good coffee. Moka coffee historically was quite bitter due to boiling pre-ground dark Italian coffee quite hard. This lead people to call it "espresso". Moka is not brewed under much pressure, so it's not true espresso. What you get is a very concentrated small serving of coffee which draws strong flavors from the bean. If I brew the same coffee back to back in the Moka versus an Aeropress, the Aeropress is smoother and more balanced, but the Moka explodes with flavor like an espresso shot. They're very different experiences. My recipe for light roast: Grind coffee medium-coarse as for Aeropress. Put freshly boiled water in the base, use a towel to close. Heat pot over medium-low heat with lid open. Watch until pot sputters. Closw lid and run cold tap water down the side to arrest boiling. Pour into 2 mugs. For black coffee, dilute with water to taste. For milk drinks, do the same, and top with milk. Frother optional but recommended. I love the Moka Pot. They're very beautiful so you want to display it on your shelf. They're a little finicky if you want to get the best coffee from them, especially from lighter roasts. The Moka was designed for pre-ground dark roasts, which brew much more easily but produce an offensively bitter coffee to my tastes. If you instead use a good fresh ground specialty coffee and manage your heat, you can get an "espresso-like" cup for a fraction of the cost. Great for small shots or milk drinks. Highly recommended.

Absolutely love this. Had a cheap 1 cup that I liked, got it for camping. Definitely not enough coffee. I grabbed this guy and it is my favorite coffee maker. My espresso machine has a layer of dust now and abandoned my coffee maker. It is super simple to set up and make. I love the taste of the coffee out of the moka pot. The quality of this moka pot is superb and I definitely tell the difference between it and the cheap 1 cup I have. Would choose this product again.

Big difference on coffee taste than your regular coffee pot I feel like. I did a video review versus typing. Great quality, perfect for a cup a heaven!

Very well made, the color was exactly what I was looking for. I still haven’t mastered the perfect cup of espresso but that totally on me. It does take practice to get a good result if you’ve never used a moca before. That being said I love this pot

This is beautiful, no scratches, arrived in great condition. This was made in Italy, 🇮🇹. Really happy with my purchase!

I love Bialetti products and I was so excited about this but Amazon literally threw this in a brown paper bag envelope and tossed it around. So this ended up scratched up and dinged up and we sent it back and got one of the Bialetti that we know come in a box I'm.

Great product, as well as great price.

After vacationing in Italy and becoming accustomed to the great coffee made by this mocha coffee pot, I returned home and purchased my own Bialetti mocha coffee pot. All my relatives and friends in Italy recommended I do not buy any other brand other than Bialetti for its authenticity and reliability. It is very easy to operate, comes with clear instructions and it cleans up with no fuss. This specific model comes in several different fun colors. After several months of use, there is no chipping or discoloration of this beautiful colored finish. If you enjoy smooth coffee flavor, consistently made at the correct temperature and ease of use, this is the coffee pot for you.

Has not lasted long

Excelente producto, el color es muy real a la imagen, me encanta

Que podemos decir de Bialetti. Es una gran cafetera, confiable, de materiales super durables. Los colores en esta edición Rainbow son vibrantes y hay para todos los gustos. Tengo una en color amarillo desde hace más de 5 años y está como nueva. Esta se compró como un regalo para toda una vida.

Jag har använt bialetti i över 20 år & alltid varit supernöjd. Men övertrycks ventilen gick sönder efter bara 5-6 kokningar. Behöver jag säga att jag är grymt besviken.

This was my first proper go at owning and using my own perculator. I love the colour, and the build quality seems fine. I have seen some comments in his sturdy the hinge for the to lid is (some say not very). I feel it's pretty good, though it will certainly fail if you tried. Basically it's not flimsy, but it's not a tank either... I clean after every use simply by rinsing with hot water. I read somewhere that using washing up liquid can affect the aluminium and/or the oils left from the coffee itself. Not sure how much I believe, but so far so good (i.e. problem free). Colour is vivid and the build quality feels very good. I expect to have this for a while! Beware it is capable of spurting coffee across the stove top if you don't pay attention with the lid open! Would certainly buy a bigger one if I was making coffee for more people.
