Bialetti Moka Express

Bialetti - Moka Express: Iconic Stovetop Espresso Maker

By: Camping Guidance

The Bialetti Moka Express is a 6-cup capacity camping stovetop percolator that is made in Italy. It has a length of 7 inches, a vertical handle length of 3.5 inches, a lid diameter of 4 inches, a base diameter of 4 inches, and a height of 8.25 inches. It weighs 577 grams and is a great size comparison to a 32-ounce and 16-ounce Nalgene bottle. It takes 5-5.5 minutes for the coffee to slowly ooze into the collector and 8 minutes and 15 seconds for the coffee to finish brewing. The handle is nicely sized and ergonomic, and the black knob on the lid is heat resistant. It is also stable on the stove and easy to clean. The collector, boiler, and filter are made of aluminum, while the handle and lid knob are made of hard plastic. The finish on the outside is good, but the finish on the inside of the boiler is stained after frequent usage.

The Bialetti Moka Express is user-friendly and has no need to measure the amount of coffee or water. It is also much easier to clean and the brew time is much faster compared to other camping percolators. It is of good quality and is still holding up well after years of frequent usage. The only downside is that it can only brew 6 cups of concentrated coffee, no more and no less.

Overall, the Bialetti Moka Express is a great camping percolator for those who are looking for something that is easy to use and easy to clean. It is of good quality and is still holding up well after years of frequent usage. The only downside is that it can only brew 6 cups of concentrated coffee, no more and no less. #bialetti #mokaexpress #campingpercolator #coffeepot #stovetop #italianmade #userfriendly
