Bialetti - New Venus Induction, stainless steel hob espresso coffee maker, suitable for all heat sources, 6 cups, aluminum, silver

I recently bought this large moka pot (double espresso size), and I’m really pleased with it. It makes a rich, tasty coffee very quickly, and the quality of the brew is excellent. The pot itself looks beautiful and quite aesthetic, which I really like. It also feels very stable on the stove, so it’s comfortable and safe to use. Overall, it’s efficient, well-designed, and a pleasure to use every morning. I’m very happy with this purchase.

Its amazing material and quality product! I bought it for my husband he loves it! Is a warrior product! The iron is such a high standard quality! Have been using it for 3 months every day and it looks like new! Very recommended! Plus it looks modern and sophisticated in our kitchen.

Works as advertised. Feels really good quality. Great for our induction hob.

This is a great quality, stylish looking coffee pot. It does gurgle a but whilst brewing the coffee, but I like that sound! Coffee tastes good. Seems to heat evenly and is easy to clean after using. I got it at a decent cost too. A tip - I found it much harder to use than I imagined. I found ChatGPT to be the biggest help. I described how it wasn't working properly (i.e. burning, spluttering etc.) and ChatGPT was able to suggest amendments to my brewing until I perfected it.

I had a well known brand basic electric espresso maker which I used for years but it started playing up - I bought a new one, same issues occurred. I now have a gas stove and decided to try one of these little stove top coffee makers instead. At a fraction of the price of my electric espresso maker, I wasn’t sure it would do the job - how wrong, it makes fabulous coffee. I got the 6 espresso cup size and that with milk added makes a huge mug of coffee, probably two normal size mugs. I followed the instructions- did three coffees and threw away before making the first coffee to drink. You fill the water below the seal, add coffee put together and put on stove using a modest heat - you don’t want the flames to extend beyond the base. It doesn’t take long before you hear it gurgle and coffee is brewed. It pours nicely and the handle isn’t hot - probably helped by not having the flames beyond the base. The instructions advise you to replace the seal every year if it doesn’t need replacing before then. I have made a note in my calendar. I would agree with another reviewer a fill line inside for the water would be handy but minor niggle. It’s a very smart machine that’s easy to clean. Best thing though is definitely the fab coffee. I’m going to look at getting the bigger size for when I have guests.

Super stylish and elegant moka pot. Superb stainless steel construction, you just know it’s quality with a no scold handle. My ancestors would be proud.

New Bialetti Venus with changed design. Made in China. Previous version was not made in Italy either(was made in Romania) only classical aluminium version is still made in Italy. But this is Bialetti designed. Made from stainless steel which is easier to clean and no aftertaste of aluminium version. The lower section designed work on any stove including induction. I use it on electrical stove it works like a charm. The main advantage to buy Bialetti is service parts availability. This makes this moka pot last forever ( which I could not say about expensive expresso machine which start to leak after one year and no spare parts on internet). The service parts are the another reason to pick up major brand like Bialetti over no name, no service parts alternatives. This moka pot are simple to maintain and lots of service gaskets available from any retailer. Consumer grade expresso machines (under £200) are disposable items with little chances to repair it and would last for just a little over one year on average (till warranty last). Results of the coffee is in between of French press and Electric Expresso machine: no muddiness of french press and as strong as expresso machine but flavours extracted slightly more blunt that from expresso machine but more tasteful than filter coffee maker. So this is excellent budget buy. Makes a good coffee, inexpensive to buy and maintain. As alternative good professional grade expresso machine (over £200 budget) will gives better results. But moka pot is still better than cheap consumer grade electric expresso machines.

I bought it to use on my new AEG induction hob, but it does not work at all. Avoid.

本当に美味しいコーヒーが簡単にできます。 ネスプレッソなどのカプセルのエスプレッソをのんでいる人には、 エスプレッソというよりも、ドリップコーヒーをイメージすると良いかもしれません。 ただし、だだのドリップコーヒーでは味わえない、濃厚で、芳醇な、最高の「ドリップコーヒー」を味わうことができます。 使用前に、全てのパーツを大きなの鍋で、「茹で」ました。 金属臭などの、嫌な臭い、変な味はありませんでした。 一点だけ不満なところがあります。 コーヒー豆を入れるパーツがとにかく取り出しづらいです。 注意点としては、 ①径が意外と小さく、コンロのサイズを確認する必要があること。 ②4カップとあるが、実質、エスプレッソ用の小さいカップ２杯分しか作れないこと。 ③IHが使えない可能性があること。（私のアイリスオオヤマ製の安いIHは使えませんでした。） 少し注意すべき点はありますが、間違いなく美味しいコーヒーが飲めると思います。

I have been searching for a Bialetti 10-cup stainless steel Espresso/CoffeeMaker for months. Found it on Amazon, but it had to come from Italy. Online searches for USA stores showed out of stock for the few that carried the item. It took 5 weeks to get the coffeemaker, but the wait was worth it. Great Italian quality - not made in China or India. Originally I had looked for the Musa style, but only could find the Venus style and I'm glad now that I have it. It has a wider base so I can turn the flame up a little more and the espresso is done sooner. The espresso tastes great and it makes enough (16 oz) for my husband and I to have a couple cups each on the weekend. When the package arrived, it looked like it had taken a beating. The espresso box was not in another box, but the seller had taped plastic 6" squares together (looked like large CD plastic cases) and covered them in brown paper and lots of tape. Luckily, the espresso maker came through without a scratch. I did not want to learn how to return items to Italy!

J’aime beaucoup cette cafetière Bialetti. La qualité est vraiment au rendez-vous : l’inox est solide, bien fini et durable. Elle fonctionne parfaitement sur une plaque à induction, ce qui était essentiel pour moi. La chauffe est rapide et homogène. Je dirais qu’elle est idéale pour un usage individuel ou pour deux grandes tasses (pas totalement remplies). Le café est intense, bien extrait et fidèle au goût traditionnel italien. Très bon rapport qualité-prix, je recommande sans hésiter.

The Bialetti Venus is a sleek, modern departure from the classic octagonal Moka Express that prioritizes both aesthetics and versatility. Constructed from high-grade 18/10 stainless steel, it feels remarkably sturdy and, more importantly, is fully compatible with induction cooktops—a major win for those with contemporary kitchens. While it still produces that signature, velvety stovetop espresso, the Venus offers a cleaner, slightly more refined flavor profile than its aluminum cousins and avoids the metallic aftertaste that some sensitive palates detect. What a nice clean result. It’s a practical, "set-it-and-forget-it" beauty that is easy to clean and built to last a lifetime, making it an essential upgrade for anyone who wants high-quality coffee without the fuss of a complex machine. No more plastic!

Amazing colour and quality
