Bialetti is an Italian brand of coffee machines, cookware, and small kitchen appliances founded by Alfonso Bialetti. Its most well-known product is the moka pot line of stovetop coffeemakers.
==History== Alfonso Bialetti first acquired his metal-working skills by working for a decade in the French aluminium industry. By 1919, he had established his own metal and machine workshop in Crusinallo (in his native Piedmont) to make aluminium products: this was the foundation of the Bialetti company. He transformed his workshop – Alfonso Bialetti & C. Fonderia in Conchiglia – into a studio for design and production. In 1933, Bialetti founded the brand and invented moka pots. The company was later operated by his son Renato Bialetti.
