Bincoo Stovetop Espresso Maker, Double Valve, Thermostatic Extractor Prevents Over-Extraction, Italian Moka Pot with Powder Dispenser and Filter Paper

I bought this as part of a series of experiments to optimise my morning moka espresso. The pot is high quality, an attractive colour and the centre section does move the taste of the coffee in a good direction. The centre section is also optional. You can remove it and treat it like a normal Moka pot if you wish. In my set up I struggled a little to stop it boiling over even if left on the hob just a few seconds too long. The coffee taste is definitely better than many of my other experiments however. However, not as good as real espresso extracted at high pressure.

When I opened the box I was thrilled, then dismayed. The only instructions were a small pamphlet written entirely in Chinese. I do not read Chinese. After a quick search on the manufacturer's website I knew enough to give it a try. In addition, I used advice from a review here. Did not fill above the little line inside the base pot. Made sure all the parts were secured firmly. It was so fast, maybe 2 minutes max, and the bottom was empty while the top pot was full. I took it off the heat once the coffee was made as the bottom piece then no longer had any water in it. The espresso was delicious. Just enough for 2 tiny cups. Made a second pot without any issues. I loved the temperature management as I could drink it right away. It seems sturdy as well, so I will keep using it for what I hope is a long time.

Producto demasiado hermosa

Used product for a two weeks. Happy with the coffee it makes. The only thing would like to point, the handle came out after one week of use. Can still use the product, so only 4 stars.

Item really good but 2 cups is very small
