Slightly modern twist on the classic Bialetti moka pot - this one's got a clear insert in the lid so you can see the coffee brewing. Also froths your coffee a bit, producing froth. Available in various sizes.

Bottom Line: Best stove top espresso i've ever made. Takes some tinkering with the grind to get reliable crema but worth the effort for under $40.00.
