Bialetti Moka Express coffee maker

The Bialetti Moka Express is an iconic symbol of Italian design and coffee culture. Invented in 1933 by Alfonso Bialetti, it revolutionized how coffee was prepared at home by using steam pressure to extract coffee from grounds. The original design, featuring the octagonal shape and 'l'Omino con i baffi' (the little man with the mustache) logo, remains largely unchanged today.

Historically manufactured in Crusinallo, Italy, Bialetti Industrie maintains production facilities in Italy for its core aluminum products, though some components or specialized models may be sourced globally. The company remains a leader in the kitchenware market, specializing in traditional coffee makers and cookware that prioritize sustainability and timeless Italian craft.
