REINVENTING COFFEE SINCE 1919.
1919 – THE BIRTH OF BIALETTI
Alfonso Bialetti opened a small workshop in Crusinallo, a hamlet of Omegna (Verbania), to manufacture aluminum semi-finished products. The business quickly grew into Alfonso Bialetti & Co., with a foundry in Conchiglia dedicated to designing and creating finished, ready-to-sell products.
1933 – THE MOKA IS LAUNCHED
Alfonso Bialetti invented the Moka Express, a coffee maker that would revolutionize home brewing in Italy. The Moka quickly became a staple in Italian households, enjoyed by generations of coffee lovers. The company’s growth was fueled by the ambition of his son, Renato Bialetti. The name “Moka” comes from the Yemeni city of Mokha, one of the world’s most famous coffee-producing regions.
