Hi:

I have a 6 cup stainless steel Bialetti mocha pot from around 1997. There is no indication (that I can find) of a model name or number and I'm wondering if anyone can help identify it. Other than the logo on the side of the pot, the only marking is on the bottom of the base.

The dimensions are approx 7.25 in. (height); 4.75 (diameter of base); 3 in. (diameter of the rim at top of pot). There's a black knob on top (approx 7/8 in.)

Thanks.

Don't know if mine is earlier or later, but while different, the measurements and looks are close enough it's likely an earlier model of the same thing. I bought it new and can give you no information at all about it other than it's a really nice moka pot. Mine does not have the "6" that yours has and seems to have no indication of capacity anywhere.
