I can't seem to be able to make cappucino! It makes good latte- but I have an electric stove and it just won't froth for me.

It is a great cappucino maker but it does take a few goes to get used to it - we had a few disasters but one you have the system down it is the greatest thing ever! Take the first week as a trial then you will be making the best coffee you have ever had!

Comments about Bialetti 06990 Mukka Express Cappuccino Maker - Silver Edition:

Love it! Brews a great cup of cappuccino! We had a fancy DeLongi espresso/cappuccino machine and I can get better quality cappuccinos with this. Love that it's small. Love that I can clean it easily - no hard to reach compartments.
A couple of things to keep in mind: Foams much better with whole milk than with low-fat; You need to be near it when preparing - it brews quickly and can burn the milk & coffee (yuk); 2 cups in normal cafe standards - not 2 gigantic Starbucks "talls".

If you like a latte type coffee this is the coffee maker for you but for a true cappucinno, it really misses the mark. I resold on [@] after 3 uses.

Comments about Bialetti 06990 Mukka Express Cappuccino Maker - Silver Edition:

About two years ago I bought a very nice, expensive espresso machine with the frothing attachment. It was big (especially for a small kitchen), heavy and took a bit of work to make the espresso just right, froth the milk, and then clean everything. When we moved recently, I decided I needed a change. I took a chance on the Mukka Express, doubting the coffee would be very good. I was wrong! This little kettle-looking contraption makes amazing, strong, rich cappuccinos, with just the right amount of frothy milk! I love it. It's easy to make and easy to clean, so much so that I use it every morning. I also made believers of my recent house guests who are devoted to their Starbucks coffee. I would recommend this cappuccino maker to anyone, especially at this great price.

Comments about Bialetti 06990 Mukka Express Cappuccino Maker - Silver Edition:

I was looking for a good and easy cappucino maker. This is a very nice product. I enjoy the quickness of the brew and the nice thick foam it forms. I haven't gotten the taste quite right yet. Maybe I need to use a different brand of espresso. The one that comes with it seems bitter. It does take a while to clean it up each time you use it. I had read that it gets cruddy and doesn't last long if you do not keep it extremely clean...that is one of my main complaints with it.

This is the second time for me to purchase this item. The first time is for my father and this time for my friend. Next time should be for myself. My father really likes this and told me he's enjoying nice cappuccino everyday, and I decided to get this to my friend too.

Comments about Bialetti 06990 Mukka Express Cappuccino Maker - Silver Edition:

I love my Mukka express. I bought one from Abe's for a great price for my brother - who spent over $1000 on a fancy espresso/ capuccino maker that makes lukewarm capuccinos. This Mukka express makes the best capuccino, it makes hot and delicious capuccino every time. I my opinion this Mukka Express tops any fancy machine.

Comments about Bialetti 06990 Mukka Express Cappuccino Maker - Silver Edition:

This was purchased as a gift for my husband who loves starbucks coffee. It works great and is nice that the product makes the coffee, steams the milk and then combines it all together. You have to make sure that you clean it and that there are no coffee grounds when you put the top on so that it gets a good seal and doesn't leak. It is fairly easy to clean, just rinse in the sink. This product makes a terrific cup of coffee that tastes just as good as starbucks. My only real complaint is that it doesn't make more. I usually have to make two batches so that he and I can both have a good sized cup to drink.
