From the Manufacturer
Moka is the Italian Way to Make Espresso
Authentic espresso is the heritage of the Italian culture and tradition, and the great Italian tradition of coffee making began with moka. Found in most Italian kitchens for more than half a century, moka produces an inherently aromatic espresso. It is more intense in flavor, and more pure in coffee taste. That is why generations of Italians have sworn by stovetop moka espresso makers.
In fact, in Italy every family owns at least two mokas. Used on the stovetop, the heat from the burner boils the water and directs it up through the ground coffee and into the receptacle, producing a perfect espresso every time.
Why an Electric Moka Espresso Maker? Although the traditional stovetop moka makes great espresso, people have been searching for a safe, convenient and easy-to-use alternative. The new six-cup machine embodies DeLonghi’s commitment to its Italian heritage and innovative kitchen design. The Electric Moka Espresso Maker is a modern-day, convenience-minded adaptation of a beloved Italian staple.

Filter Adapter allows you to choose 3 or 6 cups of espresso, so you can select the amount of espresso to make depending on the number of people you’re serving. Automatic Shut-Off With Keep Warm Function keeps espresso hot for up to 30 minutes. And with automatic safety shut-off, your espresso will never burn or overflow. Two-Level Safety System will automatically shut-off the machine when the unit is finished brewing and when the body is lifted from the base. Cordless Operation with Detachable Base makes serving convenient and simple. You can bring your espresso right to the table. On/Off Switch with Indicator Light Easy-to-use illuminated push-button control lets you know when the unit is in operation. Pressurized Safety Valve ensures safe operation.

YES to auto-moka pot, NO to plastic upper compartment (and how I hacked it) This product does what it says — HOWEVER, I am not about that plastic upper compartment. After multiple runs, I got the feeling that the difference in taste from a traditional moka pot wasn’t going away any time soon (-1 star for you, Delonghi. Plastic bad).SO, I took the top compartment from my stove-top moka pot (Bialetti) and used it instead of the plastic one: works perfectly!NOT that I’m recommending this hack: I can’t guarantee your pot won’t explode and turn your…
Set it on a timer and enjoy yummy morning coffee! It was a bit of a learning curve to learn to make yummy coffee but I love this machine! I set it on a timer at night (purchased separately) and I have my strong coffee ready in the morning. I was hoping it would make a little bit more coffee judging from the reviews…this really makes only enough for one person in my family. There was a bit of a plastic smell at first but after running it without coffee it hasn’t been an issue since. This is our current favorite kitchen gadget and we use it…
Interchangable with Bialetti 6 cup filters and pots. I took the advice of another reviewer and purchased this along with a Bialetti 6-cup moka pot, and took the top half of the Bialetti and used it to replace this unit’s plastic top half. This is a great product but i’m only giving it 4 stars because to make it perfect you need to do this modification. The plastic tops aren’t great in terms of lifespan or flavor, but the aluminum Bialetti’s are proven for over half a century.The unit works great and heats up pretty quickly, and is a…
