A stove top espresso maker is based on the simple principle of preparing coffee with pressurized boiling water. The resulting brew is a form of espresso known as stovetop espresso that is about half-way between
drip coffee and "true" espresso in body and flavor. These are often the choice of coffee lovers who fall somewhere in the middle of how strong they enjoy their coffee.
Compact, portable and durable, this stovetop espresso / cappuccino maker is perfect for the kitchen, travel, cabin or boat. It's made of stainless steel with bakelite handles and adjusts to brew 3, 6 or 9 cups with separate controls for cappuccino.
