The Classic Moka Pot is the iconic moka pot that is recognized all over the world and was designed in Italy in 1933 by Alfonso Bialetti. With this Italian coffee maker, you can easily make delicious espresso-like coffee at home. Making coffee in a Moka Pot is both elegant and efficient in its simplicity. It functions very simply and is easy operate and is also a classic and sophisticated style of brewing. Moka Pot makes the magic happen through two important variables, pressure and heat. The four main parts that achieve this are the base, the top chamber, the inner funnel and filter. Using steam pressure to force water through a strainer, the Moka Pot produces a shot of espresso-like coffee. It is filled with water in the bottom chamber and finely ground coffee is placed in a strainer just above the water. Once placed on heat, steam is created, forcing water through the strainer creating a strong shot of coffee.
