Alessi 9090 Moka Pot
Brew your coffee in style with this beautifully designed Alessi Moka Pot.
The Alessi 9090 Moka Pot is designed by Richard Sapper and is a firm favourite of ours.
Not only is this moka pot fantastic to use, but it will also look stylish and sleek in your kitchen.
The stainless steel maker will work on most stove tops, including an induction hob (Please contact us for more details).
Instead of twisting the pot to take it apart, a clever handle mechanism creates a perfectly tight seal. The rubber filter gaskets are incredibly hard wearing and last for years.
The moka pot, or stove top espresso is a traditional Italian method for brewing coffee. Expect a strong cup with a full body and a more intense flavour than other methods.
Brewing tips:
Don’t use a very high heat and remove the Alessi Moka Pot from the stove just before the water finishes reaching the top. This prevents a scalded coffee taste. Use the moka pot with one of our medium-fine ground coffees, such as a filter grind.
The Sound of Footsteps, and the Call from the Palace
Our Accountant, working in the same room, had just turned to me and said “Mr Tony, that is Buckingham Palace on the phone to Miss Audrey” I replied “Really, I wonder what they want?”
Introducing El Salvador Finca El Ingenio
We’re often asked when the next new coffee is coming. The truth is, bringing a new coffee into the H.R.Higgins range is never rushed. It’s a process that takes time, care and a great deal of tasting.
Finca El Ingenio is the result — a distinctive coffee grown on a sixth-generation farm in El Salvador’s Ahuachapán region. Shade grown, Rainforest Alliance certified and honey processed, it offers bright grapefruit and lime, tropical fruit and a smooth fudge-like sweetness, with just a hint of funk.
