Its functional and basic style is enhanced by its practical drip-proof spout. The Musa comes in four, six and 10 cup sizes.

That’s why you must buy the smaller model if you tend to brew fewer cups of coffee and a larger model if you brew more cups to avoid altering the overall dose and ratios.

If you are using it for the first time, be sure to wash all parts in hot water first. As mentioned, it is not dishwasher-safe. Throw away the first three brews and do not use the handle while unscrewing as it may break off.
