ignore reviews saying the filter collapsed, these people are overfilling the basket
a year or so ago i tried getting into moka pot and used what everyone thinks of as the default moka pot coffee, which is cafe bustelo. i didn't have a good time, even the 100% arabica version is nasty and super bitter. at the time i thought the problem was moka pot and i wrote it off back then. cafe cubano uses a lot of sugar and sweetened condensed milk to make it drinkable. this is just my own opinion that probably makes me sound like a coffee snob but if you have to do all of that to make coffee palatable then it isn't good unless you absolutely love drinking that style of coffee specifically. good coffee should be drinkable black as a baseline in my opinion and anything you add to it can make it better, but if it's undrinkable while black then the coffee is bad or you're doing something very wrong with its preparation. with all this said, if you get a moka pot and get cafe bustelo and you hate it, the coffee is the problem, not the moka pot, and you'll get out of it what you put in it.this time around i finally have a proper grinder and am using my own whole bean specialty coffee that i like drinking as filter coffee and it comes out great in a moka pot. as many others have said it's not a substitute for espresso but it is somewhere between that and filter coffee or something like french press. to me it tastes like french press but like 50% stronger than i can get from actual french press. i've been using a 1zpresso ZP6 special which i got for pour over and it works well. you don't have to spend this much, you can get cheap affordable grinders like the cheaper kingrinder models and they'll also work well.anyways onto the title of the review, there are a bunch of reviews saying the filter is cheap and collapses. read the manual and use it as instructed, not as you see random people on youtube telling you how to use it or how their italian grandma always used it. "Insert the funnel and fill it with ground coffee (do not tamp). Remove any coffee grounds on the edge of the funnel." this is from the manual. it's left a little vague but i see people online using the aluminum moka express and instructing other by putting a heaping mound of coffee in the basket and then flattening it with the back of a spoon (this is tamping) or screwing the top onto the heaping mound (this is functionally the same as tamping. tamping is forced compression). i don't know why people do this, if they want it to be stronger or they're trying to increase pressure to make it more like espresso. look on youtube or anywhere on the internet for how to use a moka pot and you will quickly come across a lot of people saying to use it like that. however the filter for the moka express is built different, it does seem to be durable enough to handle that but it's still going against the manufacturers instructions. i've tried it with 3 different coffees now and haven't seen any signs yet of it collapsing like it has in negative reviews on here.if you're using whole beans, you can fill the basket level with beans for an easy volumetric measurement, grind them, and then fill the basket with those. the basket will be overfilled because coffee grounds are fluffy but you can tamp that in if you want. any beans that fit level in the basket prior to grinding can fit in the basket after grinding and won't collapse the filter. i 3d printed a dosing funnel (you can also make one easily out of the top of a soda bottle if you cut it right), i WDT, and then i just tap it to settle it with the basket either in the base without water or sitting in an empty shot glass which also makes for a good basket holder as long as the tapered underside of the basket is supported and it's not tapping directly on the bottom of the spout part that goes down into the tank, then i level it off with the flat back side of a butter knife held at an angle to gently compress it level until it all sit in the basket level.if you're using pre ground coffee, fill the basket loosely with a spoon, tap the side or tap it down in the base or something like a shot glass if you want to settle it, and then level it off by scraping the extra off the top with something like the back side of a knife or credit card or anything like this. if you have a mound of coffee, scrape it off level before putting it together to brew. this is how it was designed to be used and you will never collapse the filter using it like this. if you want to brew with a mound of coffee tamped into the basket, get an aluminum moka express because those ones can handle this misuse.

Perfect for my daily latte!
I’m a big fan of Bialetti, and this espresso maker did not disappoint. I love starting my day with a latte, and this size is just right—it brews the perfect amount for an 8oz cup with milk. Super easy to use, quick to clean, and the coffee flavor is rich and smooth every time. If you enjoy a single morning latte, this is the perfect size and quality you need!

Looks and works beautifully but you need to dry it to prevent spots on the stainless steel
Love it. It looks beautiful although you have to dry them immediately after washing so there would there be no spots on the stainless steel. It makes good espresso and works on my induction stove. I can recommend this product

Nice little stove-top percolator for near-espresso coffee
First, this does not have any non-stick PTFE / PFOA coating on the inside, but I can understand the confusion. The inside of the water chamber is sand-blasted to a uniform matte texture to better heat the water. At first glance this looks like a Teflon-type non-stick coating which many have pointed out can have negative health effects. But if you put a couple drops of water on it or feel it with your finger, the difference becomes readily apparent. The water doesn't bead like on a non-stick surface. It's just a textured stainless steel. I haven't had any rust issues, but I dry the product with a towel after rinsing with water after use. Stainless steel comes in various grades with different amounts of iron vs nickel. In order to work well on an induction range, I believe it needs a lot of iron. Iron rusts. They add nickel to iron to make stainless steel and prevent the rust. The amount of iron vs nickel is one of the aspects of various grades of stainless steel. It would be nice to know what grade of stainless steel all stainless steel products utilize as this can drastically alter the durability of a product for specific use (this is one reason why "premium" outdoor BBQ grills cost so much more than typical warehouse-brand BBQ grills--- the stainless steel used in a Weber will last years outdoors in the weather, while a typical Charbroiler from a box store will likely last about two seasons in similar conditions. Google "stainless steel grades.") Anyway, this Bialetti looks well made and manufactured. It produces a very tasty, strong coffee-espresso, depending mainly upon the grind of your coffee beans. Finer grinds will yield a stronger coffee for the most part. I have not succeeded in having it create the crema of a "real" espresso machine, but the liquid it creates is extremely close to espresso, if you use good coffee with the proper grind and proper heating. A real espresso machine puts the coffee under at least 9 bars of pressure, I'm not sure how much this little percolator creates, but I would surmise it is far less pressure. I will say this, this little coffee maker has brought out flavors in various coffees I had not been able to taste using my little hand-press, French press, drip, etc. coffee makers. It's fantastic. One coffee I purchased, a decaf espresso, stated that it had blueberry and chocolate notes on the package--- and by-golly, I readily tasted those flavors when I used those beans in this little device. You may think, "decaf? this can't be a real coffee/espresso drinker..." I beg to differ. I LOVE coffee, but the caffeine started creating negative health effects for me, so I was forced to switch to decaf and look very hard to find decaf coffee worthy of drinking. It's out there. Admittedly, most is lacking compared to regular caffeinated coffee because the process to preserve all the flavor is very difficult in combination with the decaffeination processes. Either way, caffeinated or not, this little percolator will bring out the distinct flavors between various coffees you likely have not tasted before. It is very good. Recommended. Oh, one last thing, since grind is very important for this device, get a good burr grinder... not one of those with chopping blades. You want a grinder that can create a fairly fine and consistent grind. I use a little manual ceramic burr grinder for this purpose bought here on Amazon. If you want to send me a fancy electric burr grinder, I'll happily accept it. ;)
