Review by Carlos G. on 15 May 2013
After a good few years of using our old Bialetti Mokka Express it was time to replace it. We bought a new one through Yuppiechef and received it on our door a few days later at no extra cost!
The only problem is that the model we bought it was smaller than we expected. We didn't know but our old Bialetti was the 6-cup one and we bough the 4-cup one, which is just enough for 2 cappuccinos. The cups that Bialetti uses must be the tinniest ever!
Still the coffee tastes as good as usual! Read more

2-cup Moka Express makes this solo drinker happy!
Item Reviewed: 2 Cups
Review by Bentley K. on 21 June 2013
I already owned a 6-cup Moka Express and I love the coffee it makes. I often drink my coffee alone and I've been trying to adjust the amount of water and grounds in the pot to make less coffee (I was bouncing off the walls with a full 6-cup serving) but was not happy with the results (according to what I've read about moka pots, this is unsurprising).
So, I sucked it up and bought a 2-cup Moka. Very happy with the results! Delicious, well-balanced coffee and enough for just less than a double-espresso serving. The 6-cup is waiting for the next dinner party ;)
As per usual, Yuppiechef's service was excellent - you guys rock. Read more

Do not use very coarsely ground coffee, standard filter coffee works great.

Makes good coffee
Item Reviewed: 6 Cups
Review by Gary H. on 12 November 2013
A good value for money cup of coffee from this Moka. I found that the coffee quality from the Moka improves when made quickly i.e. preheat the water and the stovetop before adding the coffee grounds to the filter, then quickly inserting the filter and assembling [watch out for the hot base - I use a towel]. Next, quickly onto the stove and the coffee should begin bubbling into the top section shortly after. Anyone else found this? Read more

Bought for my love, who loves expresso! Couldn't afford a machine but this seems like the perfect replacement.

These pots are absolutely amazing! I have quite a number of the Bialetti pots and my experience has been great. It is far more forgiving with respect to different kinds of beans - even when your beans are a bit dry the pot will still finish the brew. All round an excellent choice! Happy brewing. PS: Just don't put them in the dishwasher... this purchase is to replace the one I ruined. :-)

Review by Pieter R. on 29 March 2016
My wife had the fabulous notion of buying the 6 cup Bialetti for my birthday.
Simply questioning whether or not I would recommend this product to a friend does not even begin to scratch the surface of my love for my Bialetti. Perhaps giving me the option to tick whether or not it has redefined coffee at home would be more suitable; in which case, yes! Yes, it has.
If you love coffee and you're still brewing over the flawless traditional quality of the Bialetti vs. a modernised, sad, cheaper alternative, just stop. Save yourself the possible disappointment and get the Bialetti.
Happy brewing. Read more

Review by Sungha C. on 15 July 2017
This is a product I use everyday. I already have the 3, 4, 6cupper espresso makers already and thought I will give this giant a try (for when I have guests or feel like a lot of coffee). Generally, I prefer Bialettis over other espresso makers because it is the original and historically the first espresso kettle ever made; I can control how strong I want it by putting more or less coffee and mixing it water after the espresso is made; the original taste of the beans and its fragrance is kept which I like, because I am a coffee/tea snob :)
I like this product (9 cupper) and my worries of being less effective because it's so big are gone and am so happy to use this alongside my 3 and 6 cuppers. If you don't have any other sizes, It won't be a problem. 3 cupper may be a bit small, mix with water or milk (1/2 a mug of espresso), perfect for cuppaccino or latte for one person. 6 cupper is a full mug size, you can drink cappuccino for two.

These Bialetti's are for people who enjoy great coffee, but are not willing to break the bank for one of those fancy barista machines. It makes an excellent brew - very easy to use. You need about 3 shots for a good Americano. I.e. a 12 cup Bialetti will leave you with 4 Americanos. The only downside is that you have to buy a smaller one (for coffee on your own) and a bigger one for visitors.

There is no other way to make coffee. The only thing is, given the size it may be too small for your gas hob - this was the case with ours.

Happy with my moka pot. It's a bit of an experiment to get the quantities and grind just right, but that's part of the fun. I don't get tired of watching the treacle-like coffee siphon up into the pot. The 6 cup pot makes enough espresso for two decent americanos. I pour it into two small preheated mugs and top them up with a little extra boiling water. Delicious, clean tasting and flavourful.

The moka pot works really well and the coffee tastes really good. My only critic or advise for others is that the portion size of each cup is basically shot cup size (and I mean single shot, not double), so I struggle to make enough coffee for 2 people with the 3 cup pot. Personally I wish I bought a larger cup size :-)

Very tasty coffee. One tip is to preheat the bottom chamber with hot water. This prevents the coffee grounds from getting that burnt flavour. And also use the right grind for a moka pot, or else it will under or over extract. All-in-all great product.

Not sure why I waited so long to get one of these. It makes brilliant, strong coffee. Not true espresso, but a very, strong, flavourful cup of coffee.
