Good point Scott, it makes sense. Less water takes less time to heat and with less water, there will be less hot coffee in the top to hold any heat that made it's way up.
thanks, its also interesting to look at the design difference between the Alessi and the Bialletti, I wonder if that wide base and the shallower depth of the water reservoir makes a difference in the time it takes to heat and therefore create pressure, Alessi maybe a setup to fail on design alone; I mean it is a nice thing to look at but is it functionally correct? (I am not even close to a physics/engineer type so I may be talking of the side of my @$$..lol)
