Being a coffee freak I always looked out to buy a stove top espresso maker. I had seen Bialetti moka pot in amazon and wondered why no Indian company attempted to make a moka pot as it uses a very simple mechanism. Then I saw the Pigeon Xpresso (should be espresso). And after using for a month I must say I'm very satisfied with the espresso it makes. The build quality is good and there was no leakage. One thing I found is that the taste of the coffee will depend on the coffee powder you use. I tried initially with a local brand and the coffee was terribly bitter. But with Lavazza (an Italian brand) I got very good espresso :) ... Thank U Pigeon and infibeam :)
