## Description

In Italy, where the kitchen is the heart of the home, where cooking is a passion and where meals bring friends and family together, Bialetti is found in nine of ten households. Why? Because like every true Italian, cooking is in our soul. And just as Alfonso Bialetti’s Moka Express revolutionized the art of coffee brewing, we’ve been crafting innovations that advance the art of cooking for nearly a century. Bialetti began in Italy, but has become a leading brand around the world because our high-quality products bring simplicity, functionality and beauty to the kitchen. Our advanced technology and distinctive styling combine to create cookware that’s simple to use and simply beautiful. Today, the Bialetti family of products has grown. We bring a multitude of styles and colours to market. But our Italian heritage and passion for cooking live on in every line.

Review: Bialetti Brikka is an elegant, simple way to a really great espresso (near enough) shot - tl;dr if you want a good espresso shot from a stovetop maker, buy this coffee maker Let's get this out of the way: Aficionados will tell you that an espresso shot needs an espresso machine and 20bar pressure, a burr grinder set to accommodate the moisture content of the beans blah blah blah. Let's get this out of the way too: Nespresso will tell you that the purple capsule is a 9 out of 11 for intensity blah blah blah and, yeah, honestly all our single use aluminium capsules get recycled and there is no greater convenience than getting your capsules through the post and posting back the empties so that you can make an espresso by getting water in a jug from a tap, pouring it into the back of the machine, doing the capsule thing, twice a day emptying the too small hopper. Yeah, supermarket capsules. Single. Use. Plastic. If, like me, you have a small kitchen and don't want to give over any counter space to high visibility admission of your legal drug habit, the Bialetti Brikka is the ticket. I'm a serial Bialetti user. I was introduced to stovetop Bialetti style coffee 30 years ago with typically burnt, over-extracted disgusting dishwater which is what you get if you fill one of the larger Bialettis with water and coffee and leave it on the stove until you get the whoosh and steam. Took me a while to get wise to how good the potential is for stovetop coffee. My short recipe for great stovetop coffee with my previous Bialettis has been: - use a small stovetop coffee maker (in Bialetti terms I'd never go over a 4 cup model, which is really a double shot and a bit) - expect shots not a mug-full - don't leave unattended - moderate the heat so the shot flows for 10-20 seconds - don't hang on for the whoosh and steam - take it off the heat as soon as the shot is delivered and (preferable) cool the base under running cold water to stop any overextraction So now to review the Brikka itself which is a little bit different and brilliantly so. The Brikka is unique in the Bialetti range for having a pressure valve that holds back the shot until the pressure builds up. It then releases the shot in one sudden whoosh and you get a crema too. The shot seems to come out perfectly every time - no over or under extraction; lots of character from your chosen coffee. It really is nearasdammit the same shot as pulled by my nearest artisan coffee house and is a much shorter walk. Any negatives? The shot is really good for a single coffee. If you're making coffee for a bunch of friends you'll need something with a quicker turnaround. NOTE FOR INDUCTION COOKTOP OWNERS: The 2-cup Bialetti Brikka is NOT compatible with the stainless steel boiler of the 4 cup Bialetti Venus; the threads are different If you combine the two the Brikka may explode under pressure on your induction hob and you could get nasty burns. Definitely you get a mess on the ceiling to clean up. Don't ask me how I know
Review: Nicely made and clearly different design to regular stove top ... - Nicely made and clearly different design to regular stove top pots which i have used for years, so it may be expected to do what it promises. The good news is it makes a tasty if subtly different- very smooth- brew but so far haven't managed much crema. Certainly not like my worktop espresso machine. And as it brews up on the cooker, you may be startled by a sudden gurgling gush as the pressurising valve releases. For little more than 1/2 the quantity, the trad. 6-cup pot becomes a 4-cup. Or 2 'English' demitasses perhaps. At the same time it seems to extract more for any given measure of ground coffee; the trad. espresso measure of 7g per cup may be substituted by 5g for a nicely strength drink. I am 'into coffee'. This adds to the fun.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Real Coffee
*by M***L on 30 November 2016*

I was a long time user of the bialetti dama 3 cup. I thought id get this one and I havent been disappointed. They both make great coffee. This one does seem to intensify the flavour of the coffee due to the higher pressure crated by the valve. Its very easy to use, just fill the water to the H2O gauge and pour into the base, grind and add (use good coffee, not supermarket stuff, I cant stress this enough) coffee then screw on top and place on cooker. I use a medium heat for best results. Let it do its thing and when its ready the valve will pop up and the coffee will pour. These things get better with more use and you should probably make 2/3 coffees with it first before drinking just to break it in and season the pot. If you have any doubts - DONT! This makes better coffee than Ive had from most machines. Buy organic fresh beans and get a grinder - you will thank yourself.
