Some of the difference in taste could be due to the fact that the generic one was brand new and the bialetti had already been "seasoned". There's a big difference in taste from first pot and 50th pot.
Will try after a few more uses 😊
Exactly right. I was thinking the same thing. Even though I own several different pots and I do love my Bialettis, seasoning the pot makes the biggest difference of all.
Wtf are you talking about "seasoned"? are you adding garlic powder to it? I don't get you people.
@@sO_RoNerY Well... it just means the 'coffee oils' are sticking to the metal/aluminum. Just like how cast iron skillets/pans are 'seasoned/covered in layer' of oil... that makes it non-stick/teflon like
@sO_RoNerY the more it brews the more it gets better as you only wash them out with water, no detergents, they get colour and lose the factory metallic taste.
One cautionary piece of advice I will give for anyone considering buying an off-brand moka is to check the ratios. A traditional Bialetti uses (roughly) a 10:1 ratio between water and ground coffee (a 3-cup bialetti takes 130ml of water in the base and 13g of coffee in the basket... roughly). I've seen most cheap moka pots have ratios of 15:1, 18:1, and even as bad as 20:1.
Against other pieces of coffee equipment, a Bialetti is relatively inexpensive and will last you a very long time. Stick with Bialetti.
I completely agree. Although there are now many other brands that offer premium quality moka pots 😊
Good point, it's same as Bialetti but we roast our own specialty coffee and like light roast which is denser, so it's funnel takes 8g and water container takes 75g so it's the right ratio. We can tell you there's no difference, and we do have 2 bigger Bialetti Moka Express pots to tell you there's no difference but price. Honestly, the $2 ones are fine unless you want the name on the side!
I love the way you showed how to serve the pots. It was super cute😍 I love the moka pot, but bought a off brand 5 cup one about a year ago, finally bought myself a bialetti 1 cup the other day, because no else drink coffee the way I do at home, can’t wait to try it. Great video.
Wonderful! Thank you!
So did you notice any difference switching to the Bialetti?
@@adampowell43 Yeah I would say there is a difference in the taste of the coffee that is made, also I found that there tends to be more fine grounds at the bottom of each cup in the other brands, I had also bought a moka pot from Alessi and noticed the coffee was a little more bitter, probably because the Alessi pot is a bit bigger in the water chamber so more water goes through the coffee. Bialetti’s pot was more consistent, less bitter, and had less fines in the bottom. Hope this helps you 😊
I wouldn't be surprised if both of them are made at the same factory in China
Bialetti is imported from Italy 🇮🇹
@buttonsjunior1131 Bialetti have other locations now, only if it says made in Italy is it Italian. My Italian one was just as "rough" as their other factories ones, plus my copies are just the same. They are always not without blemish even when new.
@@fromtheflightdeck252 True. I ordered 3-cup Bialetti, and filter funnel wasn't fully pressed, there were only half of holes. I had to reorder. Made in Romania.
Ma'am, I was a bit annoyed with the Bialetti 9-cup pot I purchased. The funnel tubing at the end, was not finished at all. It looked like someone got a hacksaw and just hacked off the tubing leaving a rough edge and was crushed out of shape. I had to first make it round as it should be, then carefully file and sand it until I had a high finish both inside and out. I had previously returned one to the store with the same problem. The one I have now, was the best of 5 pots that I had individually opened each box at the store and went though them.
Having said that, overall, the Bialetti was far better made than the cheaper brands as the Bialetti uses heavier guage aluminium. I have the 9-cup and two 4-cup old type 2019 Brikka pots.
Wow, you are an expert! Yes, I would prefer to use the original Bialetti. They do last longer but in my part of the world, they are so much more expensive than those made in Asia. :-) Although I have different brewing 'tools' I love my moka pots!
Sounds like you bought a used one if it looked like someone took a hacksaw to the tube.
If someone switched cups would she say the same? I think this is psychological.
You are correct. I bought the cheap one for $1.30 in Thailand and have Bialetti pots too, plus many other brew methods. It really is o.k. for $1.30 as it makes good moka espresso. Bialetti also make some of their aluminium pots in China and charge top dollar for their name stamped on it.
@@fromtheflightdeck252you use it and brew with out of the box? Mine on my 3 cheap moka pots have to put Teflon tape on all of 3 baskets, I cant get a good stream without it. Also brewing temperature is too high when leaking pressure at the basket
Excited to receive the copy of your book barista. I just ordered today :) i am planning to add coffee on my small milktea shop. I am using moka pot :) hopefully my business grow and be able to buy an espresso machine someday! Watching your video at 3:34am manila time :) please make video using moka pot with hot coffee recipe :) thank you!
Wonderful! Thank you for your message and your purchase. The book has extensive recipes and explanations on moka pot coffee.
Good luck with your business
wow so nice tips n trick how can choos moka pot for making some drink😍😍😍
You can get a replacement seal from bialetti, not sure about the cheap one 🤔
They are interchangeable ie same size
Anyone have more detail on why the taste would be drastically different? The moka pot design is simple, tried and true. So I wouldn't expect these results. Wonder if there's a difference in the filter design that's allowing for more fines to migrate into the cup. Or maybe there's something different about the internal dimensions that's affecting the amount of pressure building in the boiler. Just curious.
The difference is, you should not be comparing a brand new unused pot with a well used one
I think bialetti and the cheap one's is produce the same taste Until u have very sensitive thongue, the different is about consistancy, durabillity and healty from long term use, and the construction for the cheap is not good in term of precision, they often splitting but u can solve it with seal it with plumber tape around the Coffee tamper, from the material use the stainless steel than Alloy , the steel have good consistancy taste cause heat from the bottom spread more equally especially if u use fire stove, if u don't have more money to spend buy IKEA metallisk moka pot is produce the same taste with bialetti which is double price n can pass through the bialetti Alloy from the taste, but Coffee is very personal different person different experience, cheers
They are both aluminium and pretty much identical. Really there will be no difference except price it's just one has Bialetti written on it. They are not steel at all, you are misinformed. Aluminium shouldn't crack. They are both made in China.
Thanks for the honest review.
👍🏻
Well one is brand new and the other isn't? So there's going to be a difference. So I don't think it a very fair comparison
There’s a clear difference new or not. Let us know your finding if you get a chance to try.
Haiiii. wish you success. Can you make a video comparison between no brand moka pot vs new stainless steel version. Thanks.
Could the difference be due to the fact that the lighter copy was used with the same temperature setting as the heavier bialetti one? Would mean that the lighter pot would have gotten much hotter and hence a thinner more bitter taste.
Also the first and probably the second coffee brew should be discarded.. Are you being paid by the branded product?
Nope. This is not a paid promotion. It’s an independent review 😊
Seriously, you don't drink the first few of your moka pot brew. So I would say this is not a pretty valid comparison
I agree. Check this out ua-cam.com/video/hK5TQDvRhgw/v-deo.html
Hi. Is the electric moka pot u used before for thai mtea as good as this bialetti?
As good as but easier to use as it is plug and play :-)
Thumb rule: never press the coffee grounds down.
Hello. I also have one simple rule. 'Never say never' :-) I prefer to pack my coffee in hence the light tamping. In my part of the world, we use moka pot to make iced drinks too. The coffee needs to be stronger. I will be showing more moka pot brewing techniques that might not be for the purists! Stay tuned!
@@rizasri never is exceptional hahah. Like I could never kidnap or, i could never be abusive, etc. That's understandable. Just know the more you pack your coffee, the more pressure will build and the hotter it will affect your coffee beans and taste.
ilang watts ho yung ginamit ninyong mini electric stove.
It's 500 watts
I would advice to drink water or eat plain popcorn in between taste tests to clean your palette. Otherwise there is no prominent definition on how both actualy taste because the tastes are mixing up on your tounge. You are using the same coffee beans on the same extraction method. How come the tastes would be world diffrent apart. No hate. Just pointing it out since i guess most of your viewers are coffee lovers.
Thanks for your advice. I am fine tasting the same coffee as long as I am not trying to determine the origin of the coffee. This is purely on taste and texture alone. Easy enough to tell. You might wish to try it yourself and see what I mean. The generic one brews faster hence has more acidity than the branded one. You might wish to watch this one too ua-cam.com/video/ftMlTCDXLjs/v-deo.html
First of all,you don't need to weight the ground coffee,just fill it up until it fits Please,don't use boiling water as the coffee will have a burnt taste.The coffee needs its time to be ready otherwise you won't enjoy the proper taste...You are welcome!Bye from 🇮🇹
Hello 🇮🇹! I suppose I have gone beyond the tradition in developing my recipes :-) The amount of coffee is crucial to the different cup sizes especially for iced drinks. In Asia we do more iced coffee than in your part of the world! :-) Lots of experimenting involved! Thanks for the tip on the boiling water!
Coffee is roasted at temperatures much hotter than 100°C, water is not going to "burn the coffee." Too hot of brewing temperatures can overextract, but temperature surfing during the brew prevents this.
Using cold water makes for a longer overall brew time and means that the temperature the coffee brews at is going to be much colder at the start of the brew than the end. The beginning of any brew is the most important: it's when the best flavors of the coffee are extracted. By using cold water, you are seriously underextracting the best part of the coffee.
Lastly, weighing the water and the coffee every time is a tried and true method of getting consistently great results every time. Always measure out the goods 👍🏻
Why would anyone be disappointed? I guess the people that use off brand moka pots will feel offended by this video. I don’t know why. I don’t know why you wouldn't buy the original. Moka pots are cheap.
Money is not easy for most of us. When the original costs at least 5-10x more, one has to look at cheaper options. :-)
Job. And plus many who use the Moka pot are in the average range of 25-50. Can't be that expensive for them hahah. Oh well. I have five Bialetti moka pots of difference sizes. Even stainless steel ^_^. People are just greedy. Your average American will try to spend cheap as possible. People who do this, who spend on cheap things, are literally spending on items from no body companies. You wouldn't like it if someone used your idea, your hard work, your materials, your design just to make their own for cheap.
@@sO_RoNerY Dude what's with this conceitedness. I'm a 25 y/o working adult and in this part of the world, a Bialetti pot is considered expensive. Sure it's not as expensive as an espresso machine, but not everyone can just throw their money at these kind of thing. If a cheaper options can do almost the same stuff then what gives. Your privilege is showing
You should get down from your high horse mate.
