The royally inspired Kontessa espresso maker by Vev Vigano is truly a magnificent espresso pot. This Oro version features a polished brass handle and lid knob, heavy 18/10 stainless steel construction and a stainless filter basket. The fit and finish of the Kontessa is excellent throughout. brass safety pressure release valve sizes based on 1-1/2 ounce "cups". Made in Italy
Amazing espresso machines You can't do better than a premium vev vigano espresso maker. i have two of them, and am looking for a smaller version. this might do.while making the espresso on the stovetop, i heat up 1/2 and 1/2 and add cinnamon. pour finished espresso in cup, fluff heatedmilk with a bonjour caffe latte frother, pour over the espresso holding the froth till the last moment with a spoon. voila. beats most barista productions. but without a very good stovetop maker, it won't be as good. Vev V is the bomb.
