The Bialetti Moon espresso maker celebrates the timeless Italian coffee tradition with a touch of style and innovation. Developed and designed in Italy, the Bialetti Moon produces the same authentic Italian espresso, using the same brewing technique, as the original Moka Express. To start, simply fill the bottom with water up to just under the safety valve, add your favourite espresso ground coffee to the funnel and gently heat on your stovetop. TIP: The Bialetti Moon espresso maker works on a pressure system. To get the best results, make as much coffee as it is designed to produce. If it says 6 cups, make 6 cups! The Bialetti Moon is constructed from food grade 18/10 stainless steel and includes an ergonomic slip-resistant heat-resistant handle and Bialetti’s patented safety valve. Please note - the cup size refers to an espresso cup (approximately 30ml) Induction capable. Made in China to Bialetti's exact specifications.
