Q: 1st attempt out of the box and the handle started on fire. The base had water, the flame wasn't high enough to meet the edges. I'm saddened that this little pot died so tragically! I'll try again with another. Anyone else experience this?
submitted by PeachyHans - 6 years ago
A: As Bradshaw mentioned, try to keep the handle away from the heat source as it is plastic!
submitted byBialetti America - 3 years agoA: Boil the water first, add it to the pot with the coffee and put it on medium heat until you hear it finish.
submitted byMb - 1 year agoA: Hi PeachyHans, I am sorry to hear about your first experience with the Moka. The handle is plastic and should not be exposed to high heat source. Please make sure you place the whole base on the stove, over a medium flame (heat source) and make sure the handle is pointed away for the flame, or to the side of the burner. please contact our customer service department with your experience. 800-421-6290
submitted byBradshaw Home - 6 years agoBrand expertA: Wrap a good deal of aluminium foil on the handle to reflect the heat.
submitted byRahul_Does - 4 years agoA: I think the key is to place the base of the moka pot off the center of the burner rather than in the center of the burner. And also, place turn the handle to the outermost aspect of the burner top so it doesn't melt or get too hot.

Q: Can you use it on an electric stovetop, or does it have to be a flame-gas top?
submitted by mlw50 - 9 years ago
A: If we're talking about a modern induction stove, then no, a Bialletti moka pot absolutely will NOT work, not without some kind of adapter pad, as the pot is aluminum.
submitted by1WhoConquers - 6 months agoA: I use mine on a gas stove - but I see no reason why it wouldn't work on an electric stove...my assumption is as long as water is brought to a boil - it will work.
submitted byDeb - 9 years agoA: Yes, you can use it on an electric stove top.
submitted bythisisthis - 9 years agoA: Yes you can use it on an electric stovetop! :)
submitted byBialetti America - 3 years agoA: I use ithe on my electric stovetop all the time - love it!

Q: is this made in china ? does it work on induction
submitted by carshone - 4 years ago
A: Hi, Carshone - the Bialetti Moka 6 cup Express Espresso Maker is made in Italy. There is an induction plate available on Target.com that does allow for induction use. Thank you!
submitted byBialetti Customer Service - 3 years agoBrand expertA: The smaller 3 oz pot with the hex base and the round top is made in Romania. The 6 oz pot is made in Italy, at least back when I bought mine a few years ago.
submitted by1WhoConquers - 6 months agoA: Checked in store last week and it says Made in Romania.

Q: Is It dishwasher safe?
submitted by Alejandro - 5 years ago
A: Wash/rinse it by hand with hot or warm water. I recalled in another web site NOT to use dish detergent. Confirm my comment with the included instructions.
submitted byPostino - 3 years agoA: Hi there, no the Moka Express is not dishwasher safe. This should be washed by hand and hand dried to avoid oxidation. Hope this helps!

Q: Assuming I can make iced lattes easily with this unit?
submitted by Terri R - 8 years ago
A: It is very easy, it only takes about 4 minutes.
submitted byCoffee lover - 8 years agoA: It basically just makes hot espresso and then you can decide what to do with it after; if you want to throw it over ice and milk and make a latte.
submitted byanonymous - 8 years ago
Q: Hi, is this made in Italy or Romania as a customer previously mentioned? Thank you. I thought all of Bialetti items were made in Italy. Please confirm. Thank you.
submitted by NewYork12 - 11 months ago
A: Moka cafe - Romania Moka express - Italy
submitted bykiley k - 3 months ago
Q: Does this come with a silicone gasket? A smaller moka pot I bought has it but this version doesn't. I'm wondering if the one I bought is missing the piece or if it is designed differently.
submitted by jakethedog - 2 years ago
A: They should have one included. You can buy replacement ones too.
submitted byMb - 1 year ago
Q: what kind of metal is this coffee maker ?
submitted by Carlymanuel01 - 3 years ago
A: Aluminum
submitted byBialetti Customer Service - 3 years agoBrand expert
Q: The instructions say, on the first use to make 3 cups of coffee and dump it out/don't drink it.. Seems like a waste of coffee. Does this really need to be done?
submitted by dereerised - 6 years ago
A: Yes, part or the moka is the “seasoning” of flavor, these 3 batches help start this. Also, as these items are shipped and moved before getting to you these 3 cup will help clean the insides. Please follow these steps. Hope this helps!
submitted byBradshaw Home - 6 years agoBrand expert
Q: Does it work to only make 1 or 2 espresso cups or do you have to fill it with water as shown in the video to get it to work properly?
submitted by NYRookie - 6 years ago
A: Thank you for your question. For the Bialetti Moka to work properly you will need to fill the water up to the valve as shown in the video. This will yield you 1 large mug of espresso or 6 espresso sized cups. If you have additional questions please reach out to a member of our team and they would be happy to help you. We can be reached Monday-Friday 9AM-5PM PST at 1-800-421-6290. Hope this helped!

Received Defective Moka Pot and My Return Was Denied!
I ordered the Bialetti 6-cup Moka pot from Target.com. When I received it on June 26th, I was shocked to find that the inside of the bottom chamber was very roughly machined and several pieces of metal shavings were inside (see attached photo). This is not the high quality that I expected. I immediately contacted Target for a return label and shipped it back to Target in their same shipping box with their provided return label via UPS on the very same day! According to the tracking number, they received my return on June 30th. However, today, July 4th, I got an email telling me that my "return has been denied" and they are refusing to refund my total payment of $42.39! Why? It even states "free and easy returns" on the Target moka pot product page. So now I don't have a moka pot, and I am out $42.39. I will never buy from Target.com again!

Well played
Great blend using Cafe Bustelo. Brews quickly and tastes like espresso. Mine leaked the first few times - YouTube research revealed that really turning it tightly and adding a little vegetable oil fixed that problem. I would buy another one for a back up at our camper..

We love our moka pot!
We love our Moka pot! We bought this one 6 years ago now and it’s still holding up strong. We’ve had 3 other coffee makers (pour over, French press, etc) over this same time period that have since broken but not this Moka pot! We’ve been using it every day now for the last 2 years because it’s the most convenient way to make coffee in the morning. And it tastes great!

Quality issue
Bought this mid December 2024. After 3 months the silicone ring/gasket which is supposed to withstand 500 degress basically began to melt. The product has a two year warranty supposedly. Lets see how Bialetti handles the issue.

You dont boil this
So many people do not do their research on how to use a Moka Pot. Comments saying “it’s dangerous” clearly didn’t follow the instructions. You do not boil the pot. It shouldn’t go any higher than medium heat but rather medium to low heat is best. If you boil this pot, you not only get sputtering than is dangerous but you burn the coffee. This will make you the best tasting strong coffee if you are patient, practice using it and test out your grind size when grinding fresh beans.

Waste of money
We bought this at the end of 2023 for $49.99. We only used it a handful of times and took great care of it when we did. We were sure to wipe up any access water after cleaning, and let it air dry 100% prior to assembling again. I tried to use it end of 2024 and found mold coated on the inside. Upsetting since we always went out of our way to care for it.

Good coffee but dangerous design
First of all, this makes an amazing cup of coffee! At first I tried to use an espresso grind and it didn’t work out. I’ve been using my regular Dunkin’ coffee ever since and it’s been amazing. I fill my mug halfway with steamed oat milk and top it off with this and a little brown sugar syrup. No more Starbucks for me! BUT the downside to this product is that when I first tried to use it, several pieces of metal/aluminum were found floating around in the water as I filled it up. It is so important to brew and dump 3-4 times before using it for the first time! Even though I haven’t found any more metal, I’m still concerned about this and I’m considering purchasing a different product. This should definitely be addressed by the manufacturer. I expected more from such a highly respected brand.

Received a used item
Ordered this as a Christmas gift and received a used item in a damaged box. It has fingerprints and the wrap around the coffee pot was removed. Very disappointing. I hate making returns during the holidays and the app doesn’t let me return via Drive-Up either.

A beautiful coffee maker
I bought the 6 cup moka pot many years ago and discovered it hidden in my cupboard. It still brews coffee like magic. If you find the coffee too bitter, you must learn how to brew the right amount of coffee and figure out the best time to remove the pot after it starts to brew. NEVER brew it with high heat!!!! 🇮🇹

Goodbye Chain Coffee Shop!
Wow. I purchased an automatic espresso maker and this one. Immediately returned the automatic one! It didn’t produce as good of a flavor and it was also so complicated to work and clean. This one is SO easy to use/clean and I’ve been making my own macchiatos at home that taste better than the $7 coffee shop ones! Just buy an inexpensive handheld milk frother and you’re on your way to being a home barista!

10/10 -from a very regular coffee drinker
To this day, my moka pot is one of my favorite purchases. I love the traditional feel of it, and I love having my coffee brewed freshly off the stove. As a college student, I require a lot of caffine, and this moka pot lets you pull some strong coffee! I personally use the lavazza ground espresso (also from target). Get a moka pot especially if you like espresso! I have no complaints.

YUMMY Coffee!
Omg. This makes delicious coffee. It is not dishwasher safe because you are only supposed to rinse and dry it. It is easy to use and easy to clean. Perfect for a single coffee, or you can buy a bigger moka pot that holds more. Throw the Keurig out! 💗

Amazing coffee maker, messy cleaning
The coffee from this maker is amazing - flavorful, aromatic, and topped with naturl oils. It's quick and no filters needed. A few grounds in the pot and cleaning can be messy. Not ideal for ceramic top stoves. Consider 12 cup more coffee and peace of mind.
