Review on ☕ Wacaco Nanopresso Portable Espresso Maker, Upgraded Minipresso, 18 Bar Pressure, Compact Travel Coffee Machine, Manual Operation, Ideal for Kitchen, Office, and Travel, Orange by Joshua Cameron

Warning: You'll have to spend more than the cost of a pump for a grinder that can produce results. I also bought a scale to weigh the beans. With an 8G basket it's basically a single shot, except you can miss a lot more water than even a typical double shot. This can be "lungo" if you pump all the water. I wouldn't pump less water or you end up with a 20ml shot that's way too small to drink. Since I'm pumping all the water at once, I remove some bitterness, but it's still pretty tasty with good coffee. I unplugged the pressure filter port and was still getting foam, assuming the machine is producing normal espresso pressure. Also, shots fired with boiling water are hot. The device thus seems to be able to meet the legal requirements for espresso (pressure 8+ bar, low temperature loss through the device). Just keep in mind that unless you have a barista kit, you can only make one full-strength serving, which is barely a sip. Even if you want real foam and great taste, quality matters. the coffee you use. I've started roasting my own coffee so I always have a fresh supply. Garbage in = garbage out.
