Thank you,

Do retailers carry them as a general rule, or is it best to get them right from Bialetti?

They are sold everywhere. I see them at discount stores now & then. Bialetti is a huge brand and widely distributed.

Shop around, Under $20 for a three cupper is good.

Grind and fresh roast is important. See examples and learn the basics at: http://fantes.com/espresso-stovetop.html

This is an espresso thread, btw. Mokapot coffee is not true espresso - close, but no cigar. Read and discuss more about moka at:
