Specially designed with a patented and break-through Brikka System technology, Bialetti's Brikka Espresso Maker is the only stovetop coffee maker on the market that produces the perfect "crema". This crema traps the fine aromatics and flavors that register on the palate adding a thick, richer texture to each cup of coffee

 

before first use

  1. Remove all labels and packaging.
  2. Hand wash all parts with warm water.
  3. Rinse all parts thoroughly to remove any soap residue.
  4. Make 2-3 pots of coffee to season the pot. Follow to use instructions below for each cycle.

to use

  1. Fill the lower chamber with cold water just below the valve.
  2. Insert the funnel and fill it with ground espresso (do not tamp). Remove any coffee grounds on the edge of the funnel
  3. Tightly screw the upper part of the pot on to the base. Avoid using the handle for leverage.
  4. Select burner size to fit bottom of pot. For gas stovetop, make sure the flame is not larger than bottom of pot. The flame should not come around the sides of the pot.
  5. Place pot on the stovetop until the water boils and coffee begins to come out of the center post. There will be a gurgling sound during this process.
  6. When the top of the pot is full of coffee, remove from stove. Hazel brown foam appears just seconds before the coffee is completely done.
  7. Before pouring coffee, stir it in the upper chamber with a small spoon to equalize all the different coffee layers for optimum flavor.

cleaning

  • Wash by hand with warm water.
  • Dry thoroughly with towel.
  • Do not reassemble the product until all parts are completely dry to avoid oxidation.
  • Do not use soap or detergent.
  • Do not use in dishwasher.
  • Do not use steel wool or other abrasive products.

tips/precautions

  • Use coffee ground specifically for a moka coffee maker. Don't use too fine ground coffee.
  • Periodically check the funnel, the filter plate and the washer for wear. Over time, they may need to be replaced.
  • Never use the pot without water.
  • Never use other contents besides coffee like teas, cacao powder or instant coffee as it will clog the filter plate.
  • If the heat is too high, coffee may have a burnt taste. Getting the optimum temperature for brewing may take some trial and error.
  • Store coffee grounds in airtight container, away from sunlight.
  • Use filtered water for best coffee flavor.

    Essential Kitchen Item

    We have absolutley NO complaints about this Moka pot. In fact, we love it. It makes an excellent cup of Moka espresso and feels like a vacation every morning. Easy to use, easier to maintain. My grandmother had one. I have one. This was purchased for my daughter when she moved out on her own.

    Cerini got my new Bialetti

    Cerini got my new Bialetti moka to me even faster than I

    could have expected. I've been using a Bialetti for decades

    now for my morning coffee (the 3-cup model). The Bialetti

    is still the favorite of moka users in Italy and I know why. Thanks, Cerini, for the excellent service.
