Does it work on an induction cooktop?

No. Cast aluminum does not respond to induction, so use it on gas or electric coil and radiant burners.

Can I put it in the dishwasher?

No. Hand wash and dry it to protect the aluminum finish from staining and pitting.

What kind of coffee does it make?

It brews strong, concentrated coffee similar to moka or espresso, which you can drink as is or use for lattes, cappuccinos and Cuban coffee.

How much coffee does the 9-cup size make?

The listed capacity is 13 oz, roughly a few small cups, so it suits one or two people rather than a crowd.

Do I need paper filters?

No. It uses its own metal filter basket, so there are no paper filters to buy.

Is it hard to use for a first-time moka pot owner?

It is straightforward: fill the base with water, add ground coffee to the basket, assemble and heat until it finishes brewing.

Our take on the IMUSA 9cup Cast Aluminum Stovetop Coffeemaker

The IMUSA 9-Cup Stovetop Coffeemaker is a cast aluminum moka pot that brews strong, espresso-style coffee on a gas or electric burner. Its aluminum body heats fast and evenly, and the flip-top lid, easy-pour spout and cool-touch handle and knob make daily brewing simple. It suits people who want Cuban coffee, moka or a latte base without an electric machine. Against steel moka pots it is lighter and cheaper to build, but aluminum needs hand washing and does not work on induction cooktops.
