1. Alessi espresso machine
The 9090 is not only Alessi's first espresso machine but also the first kitchen appliance produced by Alessi since the 1930s. With it, Alessi won the first Compasso d'Oro (1979), followed by many more. It was the first Alessi object to be included in the Permanent Design Collection of the MOMA in New York. Additionally, it is the first multifunctional object, as it is a kitchen appliance but can also proudly sit on the coffee table thanks to its high-quality design. Espresso machine for 6 cups, made of 18/10 stainless steel with a magnetic base. Handle made of die-cast aluminum.

3. Alessi La Cupola
The Cupola Moka Pot by Alessi
As an architect, Aldo Rossi is always in search of the ultimate form: he reduces his buildings to geometric and ancient, very familiar basic shapes. He works in the same way as a designer: his famous espresso machine consists of cylinders, domes, and triangles that culminate in a small sphere. For Rossi, who drew very similar vessels as a child, this reflects the timeless archetype of the pot – a timeless investment that also makes a very good espresso.
The basic principle of a moka pot is always the same: water boils in the lower part of the pot, rises through a tube, is pressed through ground coffee, and then exits through a small riser tube at the top.

5. Alessi Moka
With the Moka espresso maker, architect and designer David Chipperfield has embraced a classic design: the moka coffee or espresso maker. The octagonal device was originally designed by Alfonso Bialetti in 1935 and marketed as an Italian design icon starting in 1945. Chipperfield's Moka is a deliberate and subtle update of the classic Bialetti.
6. Alessi Pulcina Espressomaschine
A good day starts with the "Pulcina" espresso machine from Alessi. The architect Michele De Lucchi designed this espresso pot for lovers of Italian coffee. He created the shape for Alessi following research by the Illy company into the dynamics of heat flow.
The Pulcina espresso maker is capable of making a perfect espresso. By interrupting the flow of coffee in good time, the "volcanic" phase inside the boiler is avoided, allowing only a full-bodied, round flavour to rise to the top of the pot. Burnt or bitter espresso flavours are a thing of the past with the Pulcina.
After extensive research, the Pulcina espresso machine combines technology with Alessi's project experience. The design is derived from the ideal shape of the boiler determined by Illy. The name Pulcina is derived from the typical V-shaped spout, which is reminiscent of the beak of a chick, pulcino in Italian. It is designed so that not a drop is spilt when pouring.
Why does anyone want to know what happens when making espresso in an espresso pot? Because the aim of the study was to find the optimum shape of the espresso pot to improve the organoleptic properties of espresso and also to emphasise them more strongly. "Pulcina" is therefore the result of this research.

10. Alessi La Conica

It was Rossi's first project for this large series. The espresso machine quickly became a bestseller for the then-young brand "Officina Alessi" due to its distinctive shape and became a symbol of 1980s design.
