| Description | The 3-cup Moka Express is the most popular size of Bialetti's iconic octagonal stovetop brewer, unchanged in design since Alfonso Bialetti's 1933 patent. Aluminium construction with a pressure-relief safety valve, it is the quintessential Italian home espresso maker for one or two servings. | Bialetti Brikka — the only moka pot with a patented crema valve. The two-stage pressure valve creates a foam layer reminiscent of espresso crema, making it unique among stovetop brewers. |
