The 6-cup Moka pot is the perfect size for two people - 3 shots of expresso each. As others have already stated, keep the heat on low-med, take it off the heat right before the liquid starts to boil, don't twist the top off using the handle when taking apart and just rinse it out with water to clean.

The Bialetti makes great tasting coffee on top of the stove and is a fraction of the cost of other machines. It is simple and easy to use.

I've been wanting to try one of these Bialetti Moka pots for a while now. My house is solar powered so I am always looking for appliances that don't need to be plugged in. Percolated coffee tastes so bad that I have been drinking instant for way too long. This pot makes great tasting coffee right on my gas stove.
It may take a little trial and error to figure out how much ground coffee to use, everyone's taste is a little different but once you have it dialed in, you can't beat it.
If you have been researching, or using this kind of pot you probably already know that the 6 cup rating actually means 1 or 2 "American" size cups, perfect for my needs. If you really fill the funnel all the way with grounds, then, yes you could get six small very strong espresso cups of coffee out of it but I personally cut back on the amount of coffee to make it more of a -better than drip but not as strong as espresso- flavor. Be warned- if, like me, you are looking for a flavorful way to move away from instant or drip and you make a strong pot in this Bialetti, you will get a caffeine jolt. Other reviewers have said they don't get that jolt but they must be used to espresso already.
Bottom line - I like this little pot, it's perfect for one or two people, easy to clean, makes very flavorful coffee and uses no electricity.
Great way to make coffee...you really can't make better espresso much better than this. Only problem is if you are use to larger cups...these 6 cups are really referring to "shots" of espresso...so "6" cups = about one and a half mugs of coffee!
