Description
 
Get rich, delicious espresso anywhere with an outlet! DeLonghi's Alicia Electric Moka Espresso Maker uses the Italian Moka process to steam up strong espresso without taking up space on the stove.

Learn more about the Alicia Electric Moka Espresso Maker:


Pros
  • Highly Portable - Delicious espresso anywhere with an outlet! In addition to your kitchen, this is great for an office or classroom -- anywhere you'd like coffee but don't have a stove top. Additionally, the detachable base allows you to easily serve from the cordless body
  • Strong, Rich Brew - The Moka concept equals a strong and tasty brew that is perfect for straight shots, Americanos and any milk-based drinks you'd like to make
  • Compact & Easy to Clean - This doesn't take up much room and it's easy to clean after each use

Cons
  • Durability - Several users report that the upper, plastic chamber cracked after using it for awhile; this could be due to user error and other users have suggested that the crack is the result of attempting to tighten the top to the bottom by using the handle, subsequently putting too much pressure on an area that was not made to withstand it
  • Capacity - While the capacity description indicates that you can make 3 or 6 cups, it's technically 3 or 6 shots, which you can then mix with water or milk similar to traditional espresso machines. If you stick with the straight brew, you're looking at about 1/2 - 1 mug of coffee each time, so it isn't the easiest to use for serving a party of several people
  • No Crema - This style of brewing doesn't result in a rich crema on top of the coffee, as you would see in a pump-driven machine. If crema is super important to you, than this is not the machine for you

How it Works
Great espresso is a few simple steps away using the Italian 'Moka' process.
  1. Fill the aluminum boiler with water
  2. Fill the filter with coffee
  3. Switch it on
  4. After a few minutes, authentic espresso will be delivered into the container
  5. Serve!
For more detailed information on how it works, check out DeLonghi's User Manual.

Care
For detailed care instructions, please refer to your machine's user manual. We recommend that you also incorporate the following into your cleaning routine:
  • Wash thoroughly after each use -- grounds left on the gaskets can cause degradation
  • User Tip: Purchase extra gaskets and filter baskets from the manufacturer before you need them, they will degrade over time and you don't want to be stuck with an item on backorder
  • User Tip: The top, gaskets and top filter are easily interchangeable with the Bialetti 6 cup stovetop model, so parts are cheap and easy to come by without having to work with DeLonghi
Features
The Alicia is very easy to use and offers the following functionality:
  • Filter Adapter
  • Choose to brew 3 or 6 cups of espresso.
  • Automatic Shut-Off
  • The automatic safety shut off will keep your espresso hot for 30 minutes, then turn off so that it won't burn or overflow. It also turns off automatically when the body is lifted from the base.
  • Clear Container
  • Easy-to-clean, this transparent carafe lets you monitor the entire brewing process.
  • Detachable Base
  • Easy to clean and to serve, the container is cordless and comes off the base.
  • On/Off Switch
  • Switch features an indicator light so you know when brewing has started and stopped.
  • Aluminum Boiler
  • High quality aluminum boiler is durable and fetching.
  • Heat-Resistant Handle
  • You won't burn yourself when you grab the body to pour yourself a cup.
