Bialetti Dolce&Gabbana Moka Express Espresso Maker Sicilian Red, 6 Cup

Bialetti and Dolce&Gabbana together to celebrate the Italian coffee ritual.
Created in 1933, the brainchild of Alfonso Bialetti, Moka Express has always been an undisputed icon of Italian style.
Today, in the exclusive Dolce&Gabbana edition, Moka Express becomes a tribute to the artistic crafts, landscapes and unique colours of Sicily, recreating the decorative motifs of the Sicilian Cart: an element of folklore of the island which, with its traditions, has always been at the heart of Dolce&Gabbana’s aesthetic.
Moka Express Bialetti Dolce&Gabbana transforms the coffee ritual into a celebration of style and a doubly Italian pleasure.

How to Brew

1. Fill the lower chamber with cold water just below the valve.
2. Insert the funnel and fill it with ground espresso (do not tamp).
3. Remove any coffee grounds on the edge of the funnel.
4. Tightly screw the upper part of the pot on to the base. Avoid using the handle for leverage.
5. Select burner size to fit the bottom of pot. For gas stovetop, make sure that the flame is not larger than bottom of pot. The flame should not come around the sides of the pot.
6. Place pot on the stovetop until the water boils and coffee begins to come out of the center post. There will be a gurgling sound during this process.
7.  When the top of the pot is full of coffee, remove from stove. Hazel brown foam appears just seconds before the coffee is completely done.
8. Before pouring the coffee, stir it in the upper chamber with a small spoon to equalize all the different coffee layers for optimum flavour.
