Great alternative to the Moocoo Portable Espresso Maker

For only $29, it worked just as well as the Moocoo Espresso Press. The only difference is that the mug is now a rubber-coated glass. A little heavier and bigger. But still very good since it's cheaper than moocoo. They work together just like I have my Moocoo and Tayama espresso presses.

Pros
  • Semi-Automatic Espresso Makers
Cons
  • Useless Features

Pros
  • Kitchen & Dining
Cons
  • New Competitors
