Has anyone used this llsa 7" heat defuser for a stove top espresso pot?

No, but if you want it to boil, it won't. The diffuser takes the heat right down to a low simmer, perfect for long slow cooking, like rice or soup.

No, I don't have an espresso pot. All I know is that it gives even heat. I would think you would have better luck with the diffuser than with a straight flame.

I dont have the pot on hand but i can fit a vargo titanium stove in it (Vargo Outdoors Titanium Decagon Stove)Im almost certan it would

Im sorry, but I don't have an answer to that question, I returned the product because it was an accident waiting to happen, there was an almost loose surface to hold the pot on top of the "burner", and with boiling oil inside of it... I don't even want to think about it. Good luck if you buy it.

I read a post on Amazon concerning this problem. Someone with a Bialetti Class 9-cup Espresso Maker (which is stainless steel) said that Espresso Zone's GAS-310 fits properly. But I have a Moka Maker like you, so I'm not sure if it will fit!

i don't believ so. I think you need a conventional type of stove stop espresso maker like I use. There is a company called Bialetti. (see link) I use a 2 cup and its perfect. Hope this helps The Original Bialetti Moka Express Made in Italy 6-Cup Stovetop Espresso Maker with Patented Valve

I can confirm the 70mm outside diameter. I have a stainless 4-cup stovetop unit (make is illegible) and my friend has an electric stainless 6-cup unit, one of the newer, stylish ones--this fits both. Hard to understand why the dealer doesn't put the dimension on these, since there are so many different espresso makers of the same general type.David P.

I'm not familiar with that model espresso machine? I'd recommend buying a 58mm locally to see if it works. If it does, take it back and get the rattleware on amazon.

Get a different machine. I bought a $20 stove top unit at IKEA that makes 6 cups of espresso. It's stainless steel and wonderful. My experience with the Espressione was awful too.

No and do not use one with this pot. The espresso must be loose or it will leak!

I have not. Do you mean for a cast iron warmer? I "Preheat" the pot with hot water prior to brewing.

The space at the center between the prongs is 1 inch. I also bought this reducer to support my 2 cup moka pot, and it works fine. However, I found something in an old drawer that I like better. It's an aluminum disc called a "Stovetop Tamer' by Weatherbee. It's a bigger 6", heats up faster, pots on it are more steady, your hands are shielded from direct heat, and clean up is much easier when your moka pot spills over! If you can find something like this I'd give it a try. happy shopping!

I wouldn't advise it. It is ground to almost a powder. This is a ground for steam to be pushed up through it to get the most flavor. Hot water just dripping through it would never do it justice. Buy the Mocha Pot. Get the "6 cup" it actually means the espresso cups. It has the best feedback and it is only $23+. I gave one at a "Chinese auction" Christmas Gift exchange and the guy LOVES it. You'll get your espresso at a coffee pot price.

I am sorry, but I cannot answer this question for you. I have only used the Bialetti Mocha pots. I have many, many of their pots in various sizes. It is a wonderful pot and makes delicious coffee. I have purchased these parts and replaced them in my pots as needed. I just have not used any other brand. Sorry.

Theodore, I'm just like you, after a great espresso with thick crema. How did it work out for you? Thanks, Don

Yes. You can cut the water and espresso grounds in half. The hot water and steam will push the grounds up against the steel screen. It will seal and function. You'll need to tinker for your specific tastes. But, honestly.... go ahead and make the full delicious pot!

Carlos; I'm not absolutely certain but I was curious enough to do some look up and found this website which is very very helpful. The pot I purchased was a gift..... http://stovetopitaly.com/Rubber-Gaskets-for-Stovetop-Espresso-Makers-113.htm This site has a guide for ring size to pot size etc. I hope this helps you.
