Guide Review - Bialetti Moka Express

I felt a little strange putting this tiny little pot directly on the burner of my stove, but it worked perfectly. Even after brewing, the handle was cool to the touch. Our pot is the smallest size, and make only a single shot of espresso at a time. There were no grounds in my cup, and the final product was pretty good. Not as strong as an espresso made with a larger machine, but acceptable nonetheless. You can see the Bialetti Moka pot in action, as I show how to make espresso with it.
