I have no experience with moka pots, so I read a lot about it and watched a lot of videos before I received this item. Much of the advice said to put hot water into the water chamber, but I followed Alessi’s instructions to fill the chamber with cold water. I also used an Aeropress filter, and coffee ground not too fine (as instructed). I also removed the pot from the heat as soon as the coffee started coming up intensely. I also stirred the coffee after brewing. The coffee came out delicious, and not bitter at all! I was so pleased - even with my first cup. Strong, flavorful coffee, and not bitter.
I disassembled the machine, and washed the parts with hot water only as instructed. Love it so far!!!

Not sure why other reviews were having problems with the surface oxidizing. If they would’ve read, do not use any type of soap detergent or keep it out of the dishwasher it stays beautiful. It clearly states that you need to season the coffee pot by running a few pots of coffee to let the oils coat the inside of the coffee pot. I just rinse with water and wipe mine out. As far as some of the people complaining about the handle breaking off, you’re not supposed to use the handle to unscrew the top, or it will break. That’s a no-brainer. This pot is probably one of the best Moka pots I’ve used. I bought two, one for myself and one for gift. I’ve used this for 3 1/2 years straight now. It makes two pretty strong cups of espresso-based coffee. I love it! The only thing I will suggest is for them to make a silicone sleeve for the bottom portion so if you need to make another pot quickly while it’s still warm, you won’t burn your hands. The recipient loves her mocha pot as well. Bought them at the same time.
Please read and follow the directions carefully and you shouldn’t have any problems.
