Anyone ever try one of these and if so, your opinion of it? Sounds
like a inexpensive way to make espresso and still get the "crema" that
everyone wants. Below is what one site said. I also have posted a link
to it and would appreciate comments from those of you within this NG
who may not have tried it, but have some knowledge of it:

Brikka is the first and only stovetop espresso maker to produce rich
foam or "crema" from your espresso coffee.
Specially designed with patented Brikka SystemŽ technology, Bialetti's
new Brikka traps the fine aromatics and flavors that register on the
palate adding a thicker, richer texture to each cup of coffee.

I have Brikka 2-cup. It makes a nice 3 oz. cup of coffee with a thin layer
of light-brown crema. So, it makes coffee that is similar to that produced
by most espresso bars in the U.S. But, not like a properly made espresso
that has a richer taste, heavier mouth feel, and a thicker layer of darker
crema.
