Here at Italian Glamour, we are coffee enthusiasts. Of course, you may say, we are Italian and we love to brew coffee at home using a Moka Pot (or Stovetop Espresso) following the Italian way.
It is possible to find the Moka in 90% of all Italian homes (as well as in the Guinness Book of Records) and it has deeply changed the Italian coffee culture.
It might sound peculiar, but making the coffee using a Moka pot is linked to the social, technological and economic changes that Italian advanced during the 1930s.
It was invented by Alfonso Bialetti, who was said to be inspired by observing women doing laundry with a primitive washing machine.
It consisted of a bucket of soapy water that was brought to the boil over the fire. The water was pushed out of the tube and onto the dirty clothes.
Bialetti had the idea to use a similar technique for the coffee pot using the steam instead of the pressure and his design remains much the same to this day.
Since its first release in 1933, more than 300 million pots have been sold around the world and it remains a staple among coffee enthusiasts everywhere.
The simplicity of its design and ability to produce quality cups of coffee made it a hit in every Italian family.
With the time the simple Moka pot developed by Bialetti has become a piece of design, copied and reinvented in different material and although the principle of its functioning is still the same, designers and brands reinvented his shape. They have created unique pieces to show off and use for making delicious coffees.
