 Most post-war Italian migrants used the moka pot in their homes which eventually led to many Australians of non-Italian backgrounds to also use the pot in their homes.It is widely available in many of the Italian-style delis and supermarkets that exist in Australia.The boiler (marked A in the diagram) is filled with water almost up to the safety release valve (some models have an etched water level sign) and the funnel-shaped metal filter (B) is inserted.
