Pulcina Espresso Coffee Maker – Alessi x illy by Michele De Lucchi – 6-Cup Moka

Pulcina Espresso Coffee Maker – Alessi x illy by Michele De Lucchi – Large 6-Cup Moka. -NEW in box. A star of style and elegance from Italia. Designed by architect Michele De Lucchi for Alessi in collaboration with illy, this Pulcina moka pot is part espresso maker, part sculpture. The ribbed aluminum body catches the light in bands, the bold red handle and knob give it that clean modern pop—she looks like she belongs in a design museum and on your stovetop. The interior chamber is shaped to stop extraction at just the right moment, so your coffee stays rich and full without going bitter. The beak-shaped spout (the “chick” that inspired the name Pulcina) pours in a precise stream and cuts the flow cleanly, with no drips down the sides. This is the larger 6-cup size with a magnetic steel base, so it’s compatible with induction cooktops as well as gas and electric. Comes with the filter insert for making longer, American-style coffee when you’re not in the mood for straight espresso shots.
