It doesn't exist, it doesn't exist!!! I've had it for a year and I haven't changed my mind! Comparable to the machine, more economical in consumables and a fast - reliable tool

Excellent mechanical coffee maker that perhaps makes the closest coffee to that of electric machines.
For those I hear complaining about the crema, I will say that they are not following the instructions: you need to put loosely in the cup (without pressing it) coarser ground coffee and make it on low heat. I haven't cleaned the valve as some people I see online do, and the manufacturer states that it is not necessary.
I mainly got it for trekking trips with a folding gas stove but of course I also use it at home.

after 17+ years of espresso addiction (with rancilio, krups machines which have given up the ghost) I found this briki. It is not espresso, it is not capsule coffee, it is not filter, it is something from all of these. If you get the grind right on the beans the result is very strong (you won't need more than two preparations a day)

It does its job easily.
I don't know if it's worth the money compared to something cheaper because I haven't tried any other.
Maybe the filter will need to be changed at some point...

Those who want to drink strong espresso and are coffee lovers in general will only have good things to say about this pot. Very good foam.

I used the simple moka pot for years and I was very satisfied. With this pot, I am super satisfied! For me, the crema it produces is perfect. I wouldn't change it for anything!

Unacceptable rusting of the water container. Whether it makes good coffee is secondary. Health is paramount and it is not guaranteed with this pot.

I bought it for camping so I don't use it every day. I give it 5 stars because compared to a regular briki that I had, it made a really really good coffee. It's not a machine but it's decent with a burner and it's not burnt (it needs a little attention and watching a video).

Very good product. The only thing I would change, if I were to buy it again, would be to get the larger size.
The secret to making good coffee with rich foam is to have a flame. It doesn't work well on an electric stove. The flame creates more pressure, resulting in better foam.
I really liked the easy cleaning. You just rinse it under the faucet.

Good evening, the moka pot has 3-4 "secrets", you apply them and you have a great result.
Good quality coffee (yes, not much of a secret)
Medium to low heat...
Warm water in the tank, or warm up the water and then put the coffee basket in, hold it with a towel, squeeze it and wait...
And thirdly, when the coffee reaches the edge of the pot, it will start bubbling from where the coffee comes out, we pour our coffee and put it under the tap to stop boiling and prevent burnt coffee from splashing on us. There are many videos on YouTube that show everything in detail.

As for some friends who complain about the valve, apart from the visual aspect, the crema does not contribute anything to the final result. So even if you get a simple moka pot without a valve, you will save 30 euros and you won't see any difference other than the visual result!

The photo has nothing to do with reality. In the photo, it appears that there is the special valve of Brikka, while in reality, the briki is the simple one with the two spouts from which the coffee comes out, and it doesn't make the foam that the valve makes. Now, let the process of change begin...

When you use it, there is no going back to a regular coffee maker.. It consistently makes better coffee, without the need for tricks like icing to stop the steam and burnt coffee, and bonus points for the frother...
The only downside is that it only comes in aluminum, which requires immediate cleaning and drying to avoid oxidation.. Personally, it doesn't bother me, I consider it part of the ritual, but it would definitely be better with stainless steel!

The best thing if you like espresso this way. The foam is incredible, just choose a good coffee!

Freshly ground coffee, a scale, and YouTube videos are prerequisites for a good-tasting and creamy coffee. I am very satisfied with the Brikka, although I am tired of constantly and meticulously cleaning its parts. The coffee it produces is a hybrid of French press and espresso and is quite dense, so the best results come from blends with medium or light roasting. Also, blends with at least 20% robusta almost always give more creaminess. Therefore, I would recommend the Brikka to someone who doesn't make many coffees daily and who can compromise with its aforementioned peculiarities.

I highly recommend it. Very good single espresso (double dose of coffee with 1 cup of water and red Lavazza coffee). You have to wait a little longer than usual for the coffee to start coming out, but once it starts, it finishes in a very short time (about 10-15 seconds). You shouldn't leave it any longer until air starts coming out.
