I love these, but I recently made the mistake of buying a store brand one, I thought it looked the same, but actually, they don't have the spout quite right and it doesn't pour right, I have to pour my coffee over the sink because it dribbles everywhere.
I should have just repaired my old one, I left it too long on the stove and melted the O Ring, but it should be replaceable
- FirmwareBurner 3y ago>I recently made the mistake of buying a store brand one Do you know that old saying, "you buy cheap, you buy twice"?
- davidgerard 3y agoyeah, the O-rings are trivially replaceable, keep a pile to hand
- eigenket 3y agoYou can very easily get replacement O-rings, I've had my moka pot for about 15 years and I'm on my third ring. The first got lost and the second damaged.
- projektfu 3y agoYes you can generally buy the gaskets, but might need a specialty store to find them. They harden after a while anyway, and there's going to be someone in your life, a friend, housekeeper, in-law, who will throw it out in an effort to be helpful.
- TomK32 3y agoIf the new one is thick enough alu you might think about filing the spout to make it work like the older one you have
- planede 3y agoDo yourself a favor and get a silicone replacement gasket instead of the Bialetti one.
