Frequently asked questions

Everything people ask us before their first Turbo Moka. If your question is not here, write to us at info@turbomoka.it or on WhatsApp, we answer personally.

What makes Turbo Moka different from a traditional moka pot?

Turbo Moka is designed with a unique spiral base that ensures faster and more even heat distribution. It brews your coffee more quickly while preserving rich aroma, flavour and energy.

How much faster is it?

On the same flame, the 3 cups brews in about 106 seconds instead of 158, and the 6 cups in about 160 seconds instead of 300. Roughly a third to a half less time on the stove, and less gas burned.

What materials is Turbo Moka made from?

Turbo Moka, like traditional moka pots, is made from high-quality, food-safe aluminium with a heat-diffusing spiral base, designed for durability and optimal performance.

Why choose Turbo Moka over a regular moka pot?

Why settle for less when a better option exists? Turbo Moka brews faster, uses less energy, and features a more innovative, eye-catching design. It's moka, upgraded for modern living.

Is it repairable?

Yes. Turbo Moka uses standard spare parts (filter, gasket and safety valve), available in our shop and stocked everywhere moka spares are sold. Nothing is glued shut.

How do I clean it?
