Ergonomic, good value, great quality
My wife and I have been using stove top espresso makers off and on for some years. For the last two years, I’ve been using a stove top espresso maker daily (started out years ago with a Bialetti moka pot, more recently no-name knockoffs). Just over 3 months ago I was shopping a stovetop espresso maker for my wife after her prior one met an unfortunate demise. Since this was going to be a surprise gift, I decided to upgrade to a proper current unit. I combed through some reviews, and Grosche’s Milano impressed me a little bit more than the original Moka, because of the ergonomic handle design, the quality of the aluminum, and the positive reviews (particular the Business Insider comparison review). I purchased a Grosche 6 cup white Milano for her.
Upon arrival, I was super impressed! It’s very solid, easy to use, easy to clean, and of course the coffee is delicious, (it’s hard to go back to drip coffee after stove top espresso). The handle is much better than other models including the original Moka pot, because the design protects your hand from accidentally toasting the back of a finger on the pot, and the material stays relatively cool as well … A very pleasant ergonomic design.
The quality of the metal is impressive. Besides being food grade aluminum, it’s a little bit thicker than cheap knock-offs, and consequently heats more evenly. To compensate for the thickness, the bottom and the floor of the boiler chamber are covered in tiny deep radial grooves to better, more quickly transfer the heat from the burner to the water. The coffee chamber on top is well designed, with a lid that has a splash guard seal that fits inside the rim when closed, and is well polished/ finished inside for easy cleaning. The silicone gasket to seal the chamber to the pot is very nice for those of us who remember the original gaskets on Moka models.
After purchasing the white 6 cup milano for my wife, I was so impressed that 5 weeks later I purchased a silver 6 cup milano for myself, and I’ve been using it every morning since for the past 2 months.
I will mention that my wife’s white model has acquired a patina around the base of it’s boiler chamber. The silver version shows no such signs. The silver version appears to be polished, not enameled, and seemingly will last forever. I’ve included a picture of the silver one shortly after I’ve rinsed and wiped it half halfheartedly clean … it looks nearly new without even trying. My sister purchased a blue milano after seeing both of ours, and she reports the blue milano, like the silver milano doesn’t have any patina/discoloration issues. My wife doesn’t care about the patina near the base of her white milano because it works very well, and it looks good with a bit of patina.

Solo para una raza normal de cafe

I bought one of these on Amazon when living in the US and so when I moved to UK I wanted another. It was worth the wait for Amazon to send from the US to here. It’s so reliable and makes great coffee every time. Tip: immediately after pouring run some water on the inside of the lid and the upper compartment and then run a bit of water on the exterior to cool it down. I then leave in the sink until I’m ready to clean it. I clean using hot water only on internal components so as not to affect the flavour. Mild soapy water on the external sections is fine.
