Review on Wacaco Nanopresso Portable Espresso Maker - Upgraded Version of Minipresso, 18 Bar Pressure Manual Coffee Maker - Travel Gadgets for Ground Coffee, Ideal for Camping by Dawn Fischer

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Beautiful technique.

This item is amazing. I bought it to try it and see how it works. The preheated water reached the top line in the water bowl (about 80 ml). I also bought a Nespresso pod adapter (NS adapter) to make the process easier and cleaner. After everything is loaded and reassembled, twist to unlock the rod and begin pushing the rod in to start the coffee extraction. First fill 2-3 pumps (no real effort), then each squeeze after that (I think I got to 18 pumps after ejecting the coffee), and finally remove the capsule and rinse everything. It has enough pressure to create a creamy finish without the sugar, just like Cuban coffee. The teardown shows how long it took to develop this miniature coffee maker. It's well built and thought out. Great compact coffee maker.

Pros
  • Excellent Overall Performance
Cons
  • Lots of Stuff
