Looking for a unique way to enjoy your daily coffee or want to wow your guests with a true collector's piece? Here is the iconic Bialetti Mini Express 2-cup in its splendid and vibrant orange color. Not a simple coffee maker, but a visual and sensory experience: the espresso is dispensed simultaneously and directly into your cups placed on the metal plate, which heats up during the process to ensure your coffee is always at the ideal temperature. Buying Bialetti means making a part of global design history your own. Founded in 1919 by Alfonso Bialetti as a workshop for aluminum processing, the company forever revolutionized the way coffee is drunk. In 1933 the legendary Moka Express was born, the invention that brought bar espresso directly into Italian homes, becoming an indelible symbol of the "Made in Italy" and entering the permanent collections of the world’s most important art museums, such as the MoMA in New York. While the original boiler technology owes to the pioneering insight of Alfonso Bialetti — inspired by observing the operation of a vintage washing machine of the era — the aesthetic evolution and the brand's identity are inextricably linked to the ingenuity of Lamberto Bialetti (Alfonso's son) and to the pencil of the famous cartoonist Paul Campani. It was Campani in 1953 who drew the famous "Omino coi baffi" (the mustached little man), inspired by Lamberto's figure. This playful and innovative design transformed a daily-use object into a pop icon of industrial culture. The Mini Express faithfully carries on that heritage and those strict geometric and aesthetic standards, redesigning the top portion to eliminate the classic filter holder in favor of a dramatic, visible extraction. Model: Bialetti Mini Express (RARE Edition, Vintage Orange). Capacity: 2 Cups. Material: High-quality aluminum. Condition: Good, see photos
