I like espresso style cup of coffee. This little guy looks great but will be my back up option cause I think the design makes a weaker cup than I like. That said I know I like my coffee stronger than 90% of Americans. I will say this: It doesn't explode the way my other stove top of the same brand does. They improved the pressure release valves over the last 25yrs I guess.

I had the all aluminum version of this on (with the cow print). The foam is not as pronounced as the cow printed one, actually almost no foam at all. Pouring is also problematic if you don't get the angle right on the spout it will run down the pot if not poured quick enough. But, it still make great coffee!

We love this item. Cappucino tastes very good - in my opinion as good as the one you buy at Starbucks or even better. Contrary to some reviews we found on the web, we feel it is very easy to use. If you can read English, you can understand the instructions, and if you follow the instructions you'll get a very, very good specialty coffee drink. Compared to cappucino-maker machines, this is a very inexpensive way to make cappucino. That being said, I have tried cappucino made with $300 cappucino makers by fancy-name manufacturers, and I honestly believe that the cappucino made with this item tastes better. This item is not for people who like to just "push a button" and get what they want. Preparation does involve watching the pot and you have to remove it from the heat at the right moment, otherwise, your cappucino will spill over. However, the taste is definitely worth the effort. Time-wise, the whole process of preparing your favorite coffe drink with this pot will take you 5 minutes or so. A+ from us!!!! MaciljkoRead full review
We saw these in Italy in 2006. The locals we talked to didn't know what it was, so we didn't want to get one then. After returning we checked it out on line and decided to get one. Of course, eBay was the place to go, and we weren't disappointed. The Mukka Express showed up in good condition. It's fairly straight forward and easy to use, but reading the directions is a must, and watching the demo video on the Bialetti web site is a great idea. It doesn't work exactly like their other coffee makers, so some care is needed to make sure you don't make a big mess. The cappuccinos came out excellent, as did the lattés. Drawbacks - It can be messy. If you get too much either milk or water when making a cappuccino then it will overflow when it froths. It only makes enough for two, if you use the regular cappuccino cups. We don't, which means it only makes enough for one. Because of this we usually simply make espressos and warm our own milk. Otherwise it has to be cooled and cleaned quickly in order to make a second or third pot. This can easily be done though, by holding the machine under cold water until the metal cools enough to handle. Another concern is that it can get stuck together pretty tight as the air inside contracts. The button should be removed immediately after serving in order to avoid this. That way the pressure can stay the same as outside. The Bialetti Mukka Express does exactly what they say it will do, and is a great little machine. It's fairly straight forward, and the ladies who have seen it think it's cute, for whatever that's worth to you (especially the cow design - though it doesn't clean as easily). I can heartily recommend them for the coffee lover. If you're making coffee for a crowd though, then I'd recommend Bialetti's other coffee machines and a good milk warmer and frother.Read full review
Purchased the Bialetti Mukka for my wife who is a total St@&%uck$ junkie. Really had my doubts about the effectiveness of a stovetop unit that also foams the milk at the same time. Actually quite amazed what a decent job it did. I spent a lot of time as a bartender and barista making lots of expressos/capps/lattes, and everything in between, and next to that this is like hitting the snooze bar on your alarm clock. The Mukka combines a double boiler and pressure cooker method to heat the water in the bottom part of the base and use the pressure from the heated water to force it through the expresso in the middle and steam milk in the upper part. Won't make the best cup you've ever had, but it's really handy and convienient for the single drinker. Don't plan to serve more than 1 or 2 people at one time with this, because of the time involved. By the time it took to make the third latte, the first one would be cold. Does not make the best froth. You are actually drinking a latte rather than a cappucino. Hope this helped.Read full review
