We bought one of these for $0.50 at a garage sale. It works great. Use about half as much coffee as you expect...
The Moka Express is a stovetop coffee maker, based on the principle of preparing coffee by steam. It was created by Alfonso Bialetti in 1933. It is made from aluminium with bakelite handles. In Italy, where Bialetti (the manufacturer) is based, the Moka Express (or cheaper imitations) is in almost every home.
