Perfect espresso using a Bialetti Mini Express Espresso Maker.This moka pot can be brewed anywhere.

This can't make only one cup of coffee at a time, right?

Hi Peter. It is pretty small and makes only 2 cups of espresso at one time.

Is there a plastic o-ring? And does the hot water / vapor pass through any plastic? Like the tubes on the top? Or it’s all metal? Thx

[@cookingbasics101]

Good question - the o-ring is rubber and the black plastic on the outside covers the stainless steel tubes. Hope this helps.

@@cookingbasics101 do you know of any espresso maker without any plastic that the hot stuff runs through?? The closest I found was the bialetti and the Moka. Both seem to use rubber o-ring like you said. Please help recommend one that doesn’t use any plastic in the interior?? That exterior plastic handle is fine because the hot stuff doesn’t run through it. Please lmk

@@pastimepursuit7212 I would check out the new Induction stovetop espresso maker from Bialetti also known as Bialetti New Venus Induction, Stovetop Coffee Maker, 18/10 Steel. Only the handle is plastic with a rubber o-ring.

@@cookingbasics101 I’m looking for absolutely no plastic espresso maker. I enjoy espresso, but don’t want the plastic touching hot liquid / vapor. So the plastic o-ring is a no go for me. Please find a good suggestion and lmk

@@pastimepursuit7212, aren’t you confusing plastic and rubber? Those are different things.
