Moka Express - 6 Cup/270ml Stovetop Coffee

Product Description

Some designs simply don't need reinventing. The Bialetti Moka Express has been making its distinctive rich stovetop coffee since Alfonso Bialetti introduced it in 1933, becoming one of the most recognisable objects in Italian kitchens along the way.

With its unmistakable eight-sided aluminium body, the Moka Express uses gentle stovetop pressure to pass hot water through ground coffee, producing a strong, aromatic brew in just a few minutes. No pods, no electricity and no complicated machinery, just coffee, water and a rather lovely daily ritual.

The 6 Cup Moka Express brews approximately 270ml, making it the versatile everyday size for many households. Enough for several small Italian-style coffees or a generous brew to divide between two and enjoy with hot water or warmed milk.

And a little word about Bialetti's cup sizes: we're talking Italian coffee cups, not Australian mugs. Moka coffee is concentrated and traditionally served in smaller portions, so the 6 Cup doesn't mean six big mugs of morning coffee.

Beautifully functional and virtually unchanged for generations, this is the Moka Express for morning coffee together, an afternoon pick-me-up or lingering over another cup after dinner.

How to Use

Fill the lower chamber with water to just below the safety valve. Add ground coffee to the filter funnel without pressing or tamping, assemble the Moka Express and place over low to medium heat.

When the coffee begins to fill the upper chamber and you hear that familiar Moka Express gurgle, remove it from the heat and enjoy.

Good to Know

What does 6 Cup mean?

Bialetti measures capacity using traditional Italian espresso-sized servings rather than mugs. The 6 Cup Moka Express brews approximately 270ml of rich, concentrated coffee, ideal for several small serves or for sharing between two as the base for longer coffees with hot water or milk.
