Godmorn Stovetop Espresso Maker, Moka Pot, Percolator Italian Coffee Maker, 600ml/20oz/12 cup (espresso cup=50ml), Classic Cafe Maker, stainless steel, suitable for induction cookers

Makes the perfect expresso coffee! Easy to clean and the handle stays cool to touch even over high heat. Surprisingly there’s no tarnish or discoloration after weeks of daily use. Great purchase!

Update: I've been using this just about daily for 3 months, still makes good coffee. The things I've noticed is first the lid isn't very easy to open with the little tab, it doesn't provide enough leverage for easy opening. While it does have a pour opening in the lid pouring out coffee isn't a problem, only after pouring the coffee I like to open lid and rinse out the remaining coffee/grinds left behind in the top part. Second thing is I notice the handle is getting lose. It seems the screw isn't tight. I never use the handle to remove top from bottom, always grab the top and bottom to loosen and remove. The only thing I've used the handle for is to set on stove to perk and then to pick up and pour. Likely just needs the screw tightened, maybe some lock tight on the threads would stop that in the future. Otherwise still makes a good 12 ounce mug of coffee. I really wouldn't call this (or anything similar to this) an expresso maker, it's is just like a percolator only the water passes through the grinds just once instead of many times. Which is why needs more grinds then a percolator which passes the water through the grinds many times. Like a percolator the top is open to room pressure air so this doesn't send high pressure water through the grinds any more then a percolator does. But if just want one 12 ounce mug of coffee then this is great way to go. With just making 12 ounce mug it takes around 5 minutes to make. With normal morning routine start this going first then by or before have other kitchen morning routines done coffee is ready too. When I was making coffee with the 64 ounce percolator would be close to 30 minutes before coffee was ready. Big difference. --------------------------------------------- Before this I had been using a percolator (Farberware 50124 Classic Stainless Steel Yosemite 8-Cup Coffee Percolator) which made very good coffee (still does) but now that I don't need as much coffee per day this espresso maker makes coffee very similar to my old percolator, perhaps slightly stronger then my usual 6 minute perc but if I had let the percolator go for a minute or two longer likely wouldn't be able to tell the difference. OK, so what it comes down to. It will make about 12 ounce of coffee per batch. Coffee flavor is depended on beans and roast used. Good beans and roast makes good coffee. Percolator used eight spoonful of grinds to make about 8 cups (64 ounces), this espresso maker uses three spoonful to make 12 ounce (1.5 cups). So it uses about twice as much grinds as the percolator per eight ounces of coffee. In both cases I just spoon in the grinds and level it out without packing the grinds down. With both I ground the beans to the same I use for the percolator (course grind). Brew time (from cold water to time ready to pour into a mug) with expresso maker is fairly quick, I didn't time it but seems around 5 minutes. with percolator about 20 minutes (larger volume of water will take longer to bring to a boil). I would allow water to come to boil first then lower the inside parts into pot and put the top on, turned the heat down to low, after first perc appeared I had set a timer for six minutes. This kept the brew time consistent with consistent results. Yeah, a lot of work for a morning cup of coffee... With the espresso maker the water is pushed out of the reservoir into the top part, it will make a sputtering sound when finished so no need for a timer. Results are consistent with the grind and beans used. For some reason after brewing the reservoir will have a small amount of very dilute brewed coffee in the bottom, if left on the heat too long this coffee residue will become a scorched, burned in mess that would be very difficult to clean. So once it finishes brewing take it off the heat Like with the percolator there was some learning curve to find what I considered best flavor coffee (perk time, grind size), so I will have to experiment with grind size and if rather or not to and how packed down the grinds need to be to make for me the best tasting coffee from it. Some things to be aware of... 1 - I wouldn't consider this espresso maker as being heavy duty (is any of them?) so never use the handle to tighten or loosen the top from the bottom, likely that would eventually rip the handle off. 2 - fill with water to below that thing that sticks out of the side of the reservoir, it's a safety pressure release valve. If it's covered by water it will not work correctly 3 - After brewing it will be too hot to hold for a while so either wait to let it cool before trying to separate the halves or wear heat proof gloves when doing it. Dump the old grounds and rinse everything well and it's ready for next time. 4 - I'm sure there may be some other things but off hand I can't think what... so whatever it is never do it... or is it always do it... For first time use I washed everything with soap, water and dish sponge to remove any oil or contaminates from the manufacturing process. Rinse well and then do a brew without grinds. When cool take it all apart and rinse well then brew your first batch of good coffee. Yep, first batch was a good tasting cup of coffee without much effort.

I bought the 6 cup version in November 2020 and used it daily for 2 years (picture of the pot after >500 uses attached). A friend recommended moka pots to me, and my opinion is that stainless steel is more foodsafe than the cheaper aluminum versions. The Godmorn is a nice pot that makes rich, delicious coffee that I combined with hot milk to make latte. At ~$25 this was a great way for me try the moka pot experience for a couple years before upgrading to a Bialetti at a bit more than twice the price. The biggest negative to the Godmorn is the valve. The simple valve releases pressure too quickly (even with regular cleaning) and can result in an incomplete brew cycle. The Bialetti has a two-piece valve and heavier gauge steel that brews stronger coffee at higher pressure.

great italian coffee maker

I've had this for about a month now and it is better than expected for the price, though I see that currently Amazon has doubled the cost of what I paid for it! I've had a number of moka pots over the years, mostly Bialetti (the original moka pot) and Cuisinox. I recently dropped and bent the rim of my Cuisinox Liberta 10-Cup pot and it would no longer hold the steam. I ordered one of the larger Bialetti pots, but there was what looked like loose metal plating on the internal funnel/filter. I returned it and the replacement had the same issue, so I decided to try one of these Chinese made off brand models - there seem to be several on Amazon that are the same but under different brand names. It was half the price of the defective Bialetti and a third of my old Cuisinox, I was a bit skeptical of the quality of a cheap brand, but it seemed worth a try for the price. I was even more skeptical when it arrived, the stainless steel is of a lighter gauge than either the Cuisinox or the Bialetti and kind of felt flimsy in comparison, but thus far have had no issues. In some ways its even an improvement on the old Cuisinox - the handle is cooler and it doesn't drip when I pour the coffee. The Cuisinox always dripped a little over the edge and spilt some coffee. I got the 600ml/20oz/12 cup version, which provides 2 big mugs worth of almost espresso coffee per pot. So far no issues, no rusting or corroding as some have reported. The upper gasket and filter are a little loose, but haven't fallen out of the top half yet. I'll be getting some replacement gaskets for the future, as that is the only thing that goes wrong with these moka pots - unless you drop and bend them!

The coffee pot is as big a stovetop peculator as can be, I think. The pot itself is well constructed. The round threads and form factor makes for easier coffee making and you can run it with the lid open and coffee doesn't go everywhere. The round threads are great for not getting coffee in and clogging.

I love this moka! It works just as well as the brand named models and cost a quarter of the price. Highly recommended

As described. Easy to clean and to make coffee Go for it

Facilidad para la preparación de un café con muy buen gusto. Buen producto.

昨日、アイスコーヒー用の粉でIHコンロで使用しました。 美味しいエスプレッソが出来て驚きです。 味は濃いですが、香りが部屋に広がり いい感じです。

Love this & use it daily - I had tried an original Bialetti, but didn't' get on with the smell of burning when used. I realised this was due to the water heating up for too long, so started boiling the water before pouring into the pot, and hey presto! No smell of burning! Would definitely recommend this for coffee lovers.
