5.0 out of 5 stars It’s a great way to make espresso.
I used it for serving espresso with friends. It’s excellent because it makes 9 cups at a time.works great, nice looking and makes good espresso coffee. It’s simple to use and makes espresso in no time. Good size water reservoir and it is great for good tasting espresso.
5.0 out of 5 stars Cute and great for 1 cup!
I’ve bought the small one! The coffee is good! The quality of the product is great! It makes 1 cup of coffee, which is enough for me! Fast, practical and tasty coffee!
5.0 out of 5 stars NOT even close to 3 cups, but works well, cute, and coffee is good
Not as simple as a K-cup or regular machine, but less plastic waste, fairly easy to use, makes coffee in <5 minutes on medium heat, matches my kitchen aesthetic, works with loose leaf tea, and I love the coffee routine I have now. I was not liking the French press taste anymore and was trying to save money by not buying a bulky, ugly coffee maker or going to coffee shops all the time. I got this, a separate milk frother, and a hand grinder, and the coffee is really good! Not too acidic or bitter unless I accidentally leave it on the stove too long. You do have to let it cool before you can separate the parts and clean/rinse them. The instructions say don’t let it sit wet, but I don’t follow those instructions because I don’t have time in the morning to wait for it to cool off, rinse it, and then hand dry it. It doesn’t take too long to cool off, but I make this right before I leave for work, so not an option. So far it’s holding up just fine even if I let the used coffee grinds sit in it all day. Of note, it only makes about 2/3 cup of coffee max (see photo of max water allowed). Don’t know where on earth they get “3 cups” from unless I was sent the wrong one. This is fine for me because it’s just me, but if I were making coffee for more than one person, I’d get a bigger size. Sometimes I want more than one cup so I have to wait for it to cool before setting it up with new grinds and water for a second cup, but it’s usually cooled off by the time I’m done with my first cup so not a big nuisance for me. If you have an induction stove, you need an induction plate/adapter, which sort of ruins the aesthetic, but that’s not a big deal to me. I got the small Bialetti one and it works well. I don’t know what would happen or how long it would take if I didn’t use the plate, but I don’t want to ruin anything so I’m not going to find out!
4.0 out of 5 stars A review, with tips on moka pot use.
This is a review, along with some general tips, because using a moka pot is great, but they have some quirks. :)So, the review. This is a pretty good little pot. I ordered the white 9-cup version. It's a little big for my hands - my hands are 6.5 inches (16.5cm) from the tip of my middle finger to where my palm connects to my wrist, right at the bend. I find that I can't quite get my fingers around the sides of the bottom half to get a good grip when screwing the top onto the bottom. I have to hold the bottom from underneath to get enough leverage for a tight seal. Not a big deal, but if you have small hands, or have joint pain, you might want to go with the 6-cup instead (if the base is narrower - I'm afraid I don't know). The threads are a tad rough, but the sections screw together smoothly, and a nail buffer took care of the prickly little machining bits. To me, not a big deal. I've had worse on newly purchased wrenches.The enamel is good. Evenly applied, there's no rough patches, chips, or missed spots. One thing I was disappointed about was the handle, purely from an aesthetic standpoint. I probably didn't read the description closely enough while switching between colors. I had been looking at the black pot, but purchased the white, because it looked like it had a wooden handle. It's not. There's nothing wrong with the handle - it doesn't get hot, and whatever material it's made out of is kind of a 'firmly microfibery' texture that's actually very pleasant to the touch. And it does look good. Just not what I was expecting. That's what I get for not reading the description more closely. My bad.In making coffee with it, it showed an issue that is very common to many, many moka pots, across all brands. A little finagling, and the issue is now resolved (more about that in a minute), and this pots works very well.What issue? It sputtered and spit when the coffee exited the spout in the upper chamber. Now, as I said, this is a common issue, which, I have found over the years, to have a couple of easy fixes.First probable cause of spittering (new word!) - the burner temperature is too high / you're trying to make coffee too fast. I've found the best way to use moka pots is to preheat your water to ALMOST boiling (200-205F/90-95C) in a separate container (pot, microwave, electric teakettle, whatever) then fill the bottom to just below the vent, put it all together (be careful, it will be HOT), then put it on the burner on LOW heat (see pic). I have a gas stove, and the burner I use is actually the one designed for melting butter or chocolate without burning it. It's on a setting of between 2 and 3, out of 10. Yes, that's low. But 3-5 minutes later I have a very smooth flow of coffee that isn't burned and bitter. Yay!Second cause of spittering is a not quite tight seal. This could be because you're not screwing the pieces together tight enough, or (more commonly) the basket where you put your coffee sits just a hair (and I do mean a hair!) too low, and the seal isn't quite perfect. To be honest, I have 4 moka pots (the Grosche is my 5th) including a not-cheap Bialetti, and all but one has this particular problem. (The good one is a $5 yard sale purchase from 8 years ago. Doesn't even have a gasket. Just screws together and works every time. Go figure.) But there's an easy fix. Use 2 wraps of PTFE (teflon tape). See pic on how to apply. Squinch it up under the lip of your basket and you're good to go. Yes, even my Bialetti got this treatment.One more tip - dont tamp your coffee down. Just tap the outside of the basket with your fingers to settle the grounds a bit, and level it off. Just trust me. It works so much better.All that aside, I do like the Grosche moka pot. It's pretty, it feels good in my hands, and it really does work well, if you understand how moka pots work. I would definitely recommend it as good value for your money.Cheers!

Solid product
I bought one of these on Bolo when living in the US and so when I moved to UK I wanted another. It was worth the wait for Bolo to send from the US to here. It’s so reliable and makes great coffee every time. Tip: immediately after pouring run some water on the inside of the lid and the upper compartment and then run a bit of water on the exterior to cool it down. I then leave in the sink until I’m ready to clean it. I clean using hot water only on internal components so as not to affect the flavour. Mild soapy water on the external sections is fine.
