I've really been enjoying my Bialetti brikka pot. It turns out that the trick with that pot is that you shouldn't fill up the water reservoir all the way up to the valve, because then it overheats easily.
The Brikka really is tricky. My method involves using room temperature water (instead of pre-heated like the moka express), setting the heat high-ish and adding a splash of water to the upper reservoir, but mine is the model with the weight-based valve so ymmv. When it works, it makes a great cup, though!
