Bialetti is one of the top names in Italian housewares and has been manufacturing stove-top percolators since the 1930's. Its Moka Express model is still a best seller today and all products carry the famous "little man with the moustache" logo.
The Bialetti Venus is made from 18/10 stainless steel, has a black insulated handle and is suitable for all types of hob. All pressure valves are fitted with stainless steel springs and ball bearings to ensure long trouble-free service. Since it has a magnetic base it is also suitable for induction hobs. Induction hobs heat by using a magnetic field so when the pot is placed on the hob, the magnetic field interacts with the material of the pot to heat up the pot directly.
Making good coffee could not be easier! Simply fill the base with water to just below the valve, then insert the funnel filled with ground coffee. Screw the two halves together and place the pot over a heat source. When the water boils it will percolate through the ground coffee and bubble up into the top chamber. As soon as this completes remove from the heat and serve.
