I bought these for my mocha Express 6 cup Brewer. It’s Bialetti brand, and on the bottom “V07” is engraved. The gaskets fit perfectly.

This gasket replaces the original one that came with the unit. It doesn’t fit quite as well as the original; it may be only a fraction off, but the coffee “makes” by pulling an internal vacuum and the gasket is critical to success. The old gasket was tight and a little hard to remove. The replacement is easily dislodged.
Bialetti should look into this.

Gaskets in each of our Bialetti pots had reached terminal stage, but wasn’t sure of size (by cup). So glad I eventually bought these replacements. Really easy to fit, and great seal again. Now get to drink all the coffee rather than it escaping and burning onto the aga. This pack is for 6 cup mocha etc. If it helps you decide if it’s the right one for yours, the seal measures 7cm in diameter (from outside edges).

I haven’t used these parts yet, hope I don’t have to for quite a while, I am hoping the Bialetti pot and parts hold up well. Parts are obviously the correct parts, well-packaged and as described.
Update January 18, 2014: I finally had to use these in both of my Moka pots and the results have been less than desirable. Previously, the Moka pot top screwed on to a nearly exact location each time, and the coffee always brewed perfectly.
Since putting these new gaskets in, it’s a fight to get the pot to seal. The top doesn’t screw on to the correct location, and as soon as the pot reaches temperature, steam starts blowing out the seal. (The experience was identical with both pots.) It became such a fight to get a pot of coffee that I quit using my Moka pots and just used our Keurig. Certainly not the same experience and I was finally determined to work it out.
My husband finally determined that the filter basket with the coffee in it has to be EXACTLY centered, and even then, he usually has to tighten the top again as soon as it starts heating up. Now that I have used it numerous times, being very careful to get everything just right, it is starting to give me an acceptable result, though not as good as it was before.
I am disappointed in these gaskets, they seem to be just a tiny bit to thick for the pot and really has turned what used to be an enjoyable experience for me into a real pita. Trying to find some new gaskets locally and hopefully they will be better.

Many people have complained it doesn’t work so I thought I’d share what my coffee obsessed italian girlfriend did to make things run smoothly. First make sure you put the filter in the right way round (like a saucer not a hat) and secure with the seal. Then put it on the hob with just water in it. Let it cool and do it again a couple of times. It needs re-training! Then run the water through once before you put coffee in for the first week or so of using it. Don’t fill the coffee to the top and don’t squash it down. It’s very important to put it on a low heat, the lowest you have. If the water evaporates too fast it’ll saturate the coffee too fast and you’ll never get anything out. You can also rinse the bottom part of your moka under the cold tap mid coffee brewing if it looks like it’s not coming through. My moka is now back to working like a tank only without the tiny bits of rubber I got with my old seal. A moka is one of those things that need a little love, care, and attention to work properly (much like knives or cast iron pans). Hope this helps, happy brewing!

I had a Moka pot but didn’t know the brand. I ordered this hoping it would fit. It arrived earlier than expected and I popped out the old rubber ring and the old screen. The new one popped in and I made coffee this morning. Perfect. I have a couple of extra rubber gaskets.

When I ordered these in April, there where a couple products pages. The photos & description, at the time, did not match. I ordered these hoping they would work with the model I have.

I was hesitant to buy these replacement gaskets. After months of trying through Bialetti and other sources, I put them in my cart for months ago.
In my picture..if you zoom in, you will see a well in the old brown gasket. I didn’t remember how mine looked when I purchased my 6 cup pot. The new white one in my picture..I was not sure it would work and give me the same outcome.
After I made my first cup in my 6 cup pot..a well started to form on the new replacement gasket.
The new gasket fit perfectly, with little effort to install.
I did hold my old brown gasket up to the new white one..the replacement gasket is minutely larger..it naturally fills in and creates the well after the first use!
I knew I had made the right choice!
I hope this helps someone!
