I bought the pot as a substitute for a smaller Brikka (2 cups) for my friend, so we can have a coffee in the morning along a little faster. The new pitcher is therefore greater, but has over the older some changes on which I rate as improvements. The seal between the top part, bottom part and sieve is solved by a single seal and now works better. Before the sealing by a narrower sealing between upper and lower parts and an additional was achieved under the hopper. This had sometimes does not work properly in our pot. Only the prolonged use but show whether the first good impression on the new pot also confirmed. The cover now has an opening through which one can see and hear better when the coffee has finished. To fold up the cover, is now a lateral plastic handle on the lid, which can be easily handled. The necessary amount of water can be read on a label in the upper part. The water is so abgemssen in the upper part and then filled in the lower part. Total has verinfacht with the innovations in the new model the operation. The result is a really good mocha, perhaps the best that can be produced with a mocha pot. This reaches the valve that lets the steam only after reaching a relatively high pressure and then also occur relatively quickly through the ground coffee. From an espresso can not speak, to vote for, without pressure and temperature as well as the foam that forms on the surface one, is not a stable crema. This one should not expect from the jug. But who wants a really good mocha, will-if he chooses a suitable coffee and the degree of ground coffee, amount of water complies with-certainly not be disappointed. A product that has my expectations completely. an important note: As described in the instructions, wash the machine never in the dishwasher and do not use descaling agents! The special aluminum alloy does not react with water or coffee and is therefore probably not as cheaper pitchers health risk, but the bare finish when in contact with these cleaners, which are actually not necessary.
