Presented in 2015, the Alessi Pulcina espresso coffee maker won over the public for its evocative design and its high performance. In the black version, the light plays with the unique stepped shape. Designed by Michele De Lucchi, Pulcina contains a small but revolutionary innovation that enhances the full-bodied taste of coffee. Dedicated to those who do not want to renounce the taste and aroma of coffee offered by an espresso coffee machine, but want to experience this daily ritual in a special way.

Thanks to the internal shape of its special heater, Pulcina automatically stops filtering the coffee at just the right moment. This helps to eliminate the eruption phase, the final filtering stage that generates a burnt and bitter aftertaste, ensuring that only the finest qualities of the coffee are preserved and enhancing its full-bodied and rounded aroma. The spout is quite pronounced. Its typical 'V' shape, reminiscent of a baby chick’s beak, is specially designed to perfectly cut drops when pouring. Practical and functional, making coffee with the Pulcina is just like making it with a traditional coffee pot.
