The journey of using the MokaMax
Fewer parts, Fewer headaches
MokaMax is divided into 3 main compartments - which are all easily cleaned. The decomposable coffee filter pods can be thrown after each use further cutting down on cleaning.
The Pressure chamber and the top cap can be fastened easily and stowed away upside down in one piece without having the risk of losing or taking care of smaller parts.
Machined with food grade stainless steel this flask will keep making coffee no matter the environment, be it a Library or a hilly cliff.
