About Italian Moka Pot

We are coffee lovers who produce independent moka pot reviews and guides, based on long-term real-world tests.

Our mission

Why we exist

The moka pot market is overwhelming. Hundreds of models, dozens of brands, and a lot of marketing noise. We believe that as a consumer you deserve honest, independent information.

That's why we test every moka pot we review ourselves. We buy them with our own money, use them for months in our own kitchens, and share our honest experiences.

Our goal is simple: Help you find the perfect moka pot for your situation, budget and taste.

Our values

Transparency

All testing methods and criteria are public. You know exactly how we reach our conclusions.

Independence

We accept no money from brands for positive reviews. Our opinion is not for sale.

Thoroughness

Every moka pot is tested for a minimum of 3 months before we publish a review.

Education

We don't just share our opinion — we explain the why and how behind every recommendation.

Transparency about revenue

How do we make money?

This site uses affiliate links. When you purchase a moka pot via one of our links, we receive a small commission from the retailer (Amazon, Bol.com, etc.) at no extra cost to you.

This income allows us to continue purchasing and testing new moka pots. We never accept payment from brands in exchange for positive reviews or higher scores.

Our commitment: Our scores and recommendations are always based exclusively on our honest test results — regardless of whether a product uses affiliate links or not.
