Renato Bialetti February 20, 2016, 08:04:43 pm Yahoo Message Number: 158874I know, I know....who the heck is Renato Bialetto, and what does he have to do with LD's? Renato is associated with one of what was, at one time, the most popular topic on the LifeWithALazyDazeRV group - Can you guess?Yes! COFFEE! Renato took a little known device invented by Luigi di Ponti in 1933, the Moka pot, and turned it into a major Italian icon. Renato recently passed away and as evidence of his devotion to coffee, his ashes were buried in a giant Moka pot. More details about the Moka and Renato, complete with a picture of the large Moka pot at his funeral service, can be found in the newly-revised Coffee article in the LD Companion.WxToadPS: Where have all you coffee people been lately?
