Bialetti’s Mukka Express Cappuccino Maker has MomAppeal

June 14th, 2007

So, I’m jonezing for a coffee, but there’s no shop within walking distance, my 2-year-old is throwing a Nooo-I-don’t-want-to-go-bye-bye tantrum, or my infant is—finally—blissfully fast asleep. Bialetti’s Mukka Express Cappuccino maker comes to my rescue. Daily, in fact. It’s pretty easy to use, even for the sleep-deprived — fill the water container, espresso filter and milk container, screw it all together, push down the pressure valve and place on the stovetop. Four minutes later, my frothy fix is served. If I’m super organized, I prep the whole thing before bed and stick in the fridge so I can just pop it on the stovetop after stumbling bleary-eyed to the kitchen in the morning. Does it make me a better mom? No (maybe?). But it sure makes me happy.  

For the budget-conscious who just can’t give up their daily cuppa good joe, think of it this way: You’ll save yourself a daily $3.50 for that ginormous latte, and instead can feel guiltless about getting a killer pedicure and few pairs of hip wedges or sexy slingbacks.
