Product Description
Mukka Cappuccino Express 2 Cup Bialetti has done it again. With the invention of the Mukka Express, now it is possible to brew barista quality cappuccinos and lattes right on the stove top. The first of its kind Mukka Express has already been met with wild enthusiasm in Italy, and now available in the American marketplace. While the funtion of the Mukka Express employs the tradition of stovetop brewing, the top portion of the pot is filled with milk so that as the expresso enters the top chamber, it mixes with the steamed milk and within minutes 2 cups of cappuccino are brewed and ready to serve.

Customers like the ease of use of the coffee machine. For example, they mention it's simple to operate and has less hassle than a full-blown espresso. That said, some complain about the heating. They say the milk doesn't heat up enough, and the coffee is not really warm when it'd be complete. They also have issues with leakage, and foam. Opinions are mixed on quality, value, cleanliness, and appearance.

Anyway, this is an extremely fun little mocha pot. With regular milk it makes an amazingly pleasing foam for cappuccino and it also makes lattes. The difference is how the weighted streaming apparatus is set before being placed on the heat. It makes two small to medium cappuccinos or lattes (or one for me!). Cleanup isn't bad, but there are a few parts and it's not dishwasher safe, unless you don't care about the appearance of the aluminum. So if you're used to a traditional mocha pot, you'll know what to expect, with one extra piece to wash, the steaming head inside the top chamber. I really recommend it, if it's not too costly.
Some of the water always remained in the bottom chamber. As a result, you did not get two cappuccinos, you got one. Also, the cappuccino was more like coffee flavored milk, because the would-be coffee was made with only some water, while the rest of it just sat below. If I cooked it longer, the coffee would burn before all the water was used. If I cooked it on a higher flame – the pot would leak coffee from the sides and/or the coffee burned.
The pot would leak coffee if the flame was too high (instructions recommend medium to high flame), or the coffee was too finely ground (instruction recommend espresso ground coffee) despite of having a spotless rim and securely screwed on top. What helped was using coarser ground coffee or reducing the flame. But when the flame was reduced too much, not enough foam was produced and the milk wasn’t hot enough. With the flame higher, the foam and milk temperature were fine, but the coffee leaked all over my stove. It was impossible to get it right.
Another minor hassle was cleaning the unit – the valve had to be cleaned immediately or it would clog up with milk. The unit is heavy and bulky, not the easiest to handle (screw, unscrew, wash) for someone with small hands (referring to a 2-cup Mukka).
When the unit works as designed (I only got a decent outcome once), the coffee is pretty good, but not great. The cappuccinos are (1) rather small, and (2) rather weak. You’re better off using a regular Moka Express to make espresso and add foamed milk separately – which is what I had been doing before getting this unit and have been doing again since returning it, which I did after one week of trying.
I think part of the issue is the design of American cooking ranges. In Europe, ranges have much smaller burners with more closely spaced flames with lower sitting grates, so the flame is more direct. In the US the grates are higher and the burners are bigger with more sparsely located flames. I found that my Moka pots perform better on a small camping stove, so the same might be true for the Mukka Express. If you have a ceramic or electric stove, this machine might work just fine. Still, I’d say get a regular Moka Express and a milk frother for a fraction of a price, and enjoy simpler and better cappuccinos and lattes.
I am returning the product, I bought the cow design, and I am ordering the silver one hoping that it comes from a different production run, and that it will not have the same defect.
UPDATE: I had to change my rating to 5 stars. Here is why: I thought that the silver one is done on a different run, and it may work better. I love the cow design but I had to try the silver one. I did. I got the silver one with the black bottom, and I can say that once again what it creates in AWESOME. No problems with the pressure valve or anything. Also, I heard people complaining about cleaning the filter. It is very easy. Right after you make the product and pour it into the cups, hold the whole unit under cold running water for a few minutes. Disengage the bottom part, clean as the instructions tell you. VERY EASY. Takes 15 seconds. And for the filter, just run it under a strong stream of water. On my faucet, I turn the raining feature on and it does it by itself.

Sin embargo tuve que devolver la cafetera dos veces puesto que la primera que recibí venía rayada y con una mancha de café, y la segunda venía sin libro de instrucciones (que contiene la garantía), la caja rota, el papel que la envuelve bastante roto, y la válvula de presión para la leche con una de las tres pestañas rota, al utilizarla se rompió otra más. Esto es realmente muy peligroso, de no ser por la tapa (¡Ponedla siempre!) la válvula habría salido disparada.
Escribí a Bialetti y me dijeron que la válvula no está cubierta por la garantía, servicio de atención al cliente de pena. Contacté a Amazon y el servicio fue excelente como siempre, me mandaron una cafetera nueva, por fin realmente nueva e impecable!

Der Mukka Express war ordentlich verpackt und machte einen gut verarbeiteten Eindruck. Im Lieferumfang waren ebenfalls eine Anleitung, sowie der Messbecher für die Wassermenge enthalten. Die Anleitung gab es auf Deutsch und sie war sehr gut verständlich. Ich habe mich bei den ersten Zubereitungsversuchen genau an die Anleitung gehalten und es hat direkt wunderbar geklappt (ich hatte mir vorher auch schon 1-2 Videos bei YouTube angeschaut). Im zweiten Versuch sogar direkt noch besser. Man muss natürlich ein kleines Gespür dafür entwickeln, wann der Kaffee fertig ist, aber man kann es eigentlich ziemlich gut hören, sollte dann noch gute 10 Sekunden warten und den Mukka Express dann vom Herd ziehen, bevor die Milch überschäumen kann. Ich habe den Kaffee auf mittlerer Hitze gekocht und den Mukka Express anschließend noch für eine halbe Minute auf die schon abgeschaltete, aber noch warme Herdplatte gestellt, da ich den Cappuccino gerne sehr heiß mag. Das hat alles einwandfrei funktioniert! Ich habe für die Zubereitung übrigens keine Kuhmilch, sondern eine Hafer-Barista Milch verwendet, was absolut keine Probleme bereitet hat.
Insgesamt bin ich sehr zufrieden und würde das Produkt weiterempfehlen!
