Alessi Iconic Stovetop Espresso Coffee Maker

The Alessi 9090 Espresso Coffee Maker – 6 Cup redefines home coffee brewing by merging visionary design with precision engineering. Crafted by legendary designer Richard Sapper for Alessi’s iconic lineup, this moka pot blends avant-garde aesthetics with practical innovation to deliver café-quality espresso effortlessly. Its sleek conical silhouette is forged from premium 18/10 stainless steel, offering both durability and a polished finish that elevates any kitchen countertop into a design showcase.

Engineered for optimal performance, the generously sized magnetic steel base ensures even heat distribution across induction or gas stoves—ideal for achieving rich, full-bodied espresso every time. The anti-drip spout prevents spills during pouring, while the intuitive lever-lock mechanism simplifies operation: securely locks during brewing and releases effortlessly afterward for easy cleaning.

Recognized as a design masterpiece by MoMA’s permanent collection and honored with the Compasso d’Oro award, this appliance transcends functionality to become a timeless statement piece. With a 30cl capacity (equivalent to six standard espresso cups), it’s perfect for small gatherings or personal indulgence without overwhelming counter space—its compact dimensions (12.5cm diameter x 20.5cm height) fit seamlessly into modern kitchens.

Though built to last with high-quality materials, proper care ensures longevity: hand wash thoroughly after each use and allow components to dry completely before reassembling to protect its lustrous finish. Whether you’re an espresso enthusiast or a design aficionado, this Alessi creation combines elegance and reliability into one unforgettable brewing experience.
