Incredible!
Damn, for a device that does not run on electricity or batteries, this makes some really ASTONISHING espressso coffee! The instructions on the box itself was super easy to understand. Got some french roast coffee powder and hot water ready, and started pumping out espresso coffee within minutes of receiving the box through Amazon! Easy to tell that coffee is coming out as you feel extra pressure on the device and the pump. You will know its done when the pressure gets back to being ‘too easy’. The flavor of the coffee is dictated by the coffee powder used and my french roast espresso turned out super tasty! Cleaning this device was a breeze as you run everything under water. And once done, the device is put back in its original shape and its a very tiny looking cylinder thats driven by manual power to brew coffee! HUGE highlight for traveling and for times when you need a quick coffee fix and you are not near a coffee maker or a coffee shop.

Love!!!
This thing makes a very good espresso! Creamy and rich and you make it as hot as you want. Just microwave water for 40 seconds and put it through the machine. No power needed. I bought this for travel but itâs so good I will use it at home.

Excellent customer service after the outlet gauge broke.
UPDATED July 2nd 2016:I am happy to report that my broken part has been replaced by Wacaco and they honored the one year guarantee even when the Amazon returning policy had already expired. Costumer service was very courteous, informative and efficient, so just for that alone they deserve 5 stars, but just for the time I lost trying to fix the problem I’m giving them 4 stars only. The spare part took a while to arrive (about 25 days or so since the day I was shipped), this is understood since the spare part came from Hong Kong. TIP: Buy directly from Wacaco.com and avoid limited returning policy by Amazon. (Thanks to one of the other reviewers for providing me with the necessary info to solve my problem. As simple as looking for customer support at Wacaco.com)Now, let’s talk about the product itself: As I said on my initial review I was very happy with this product until the day it broke. Now that the problem has been solved I can give you an objective review free of frustration. If you have seen the other reviews, someone said DO NOT DAMP. That person is totally right! This warning is written in the owners manual of the MiniPresso, but apparently not big enough since many of us have ignored the warning maybe inspired by the videos out there. Let me repeat it. DO NOT DAMP. This small machine creates enough internal pressure for your coffee. No need to damp at all. Just grind your coffee very fine and put a scoop in the filter. Let it stand somehow loose. Start pumping slowly about 7 times to let the hot water pass through and let it rest for a couple of seconds, then proceed to pump letting pass between 2 to 3 seconds in each pumping. IF THE PUMPING GETS TOO HARD DON’T FORCE IT. THAT MEANS YOUR COFFE POWDER WAS SET TOO TIGHT AND IT IS BLOCKING THE FILTER TINY HOLES. THAT CREATES EXCESSIVE PRESSURE AND YOU RUN THE RISK OF BREAKING THE PART AS I DID. Just open the machine and reload it again making sure the powder is loose.THE GOOD:The flavor of your coffee will be as good as if you were using more expensive equipment. I have tried as many as 7 different manual coffee makers and this is by far the one that produces the most concentrated flavor and thickest texture of the extraction. It is very portable. Perfect for camping. Some reviewers have said it is difficult to clean. I disagree. If you keep yourself organized the cleaning can be fairly simple.THE NOT SO GOOD.This machine was created for personal use, so the amount of liquid you get is smaller compared to other machines. Even with the extended water container (sold separately) you will get more water but the filter capacity will be still the same, meaning your crema will be more diluted and the flavor won’t be as concentrated. Luckily for me when my first machine broke I got a second one as a present and now that I got the first one repaired I have two and that makes it easier for me to prepare a second cup of coffee right away. If you can afford a second one, go for it. You’ll see how big of a difference it makes to have two. Otherwise keep in mind this machine is not designed for people who are in a rush and expect to drink a litter of coffee before starting their day.THE BADCurrent instructional videos suggest damping the coffee powder which can damaged the machine. Spare parts are not available for direct purchase in the website directly, which makes it somehow difficult and time consuming to replace if something goes wrong.——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-I was so happy with my mini presso machine until it broke. Very portable and practical to take with me on camping trips. Yesterday the rim that holds the pressure rubber ring broke. I visited the Wako website for spare parts but they don’t sell them. Meaning my machine is useless now. I don’t know if I want to buy one again. I’m very disappointed. Amazon return policy is even shorter than the guarantee on this thing. I’ll try to send it back to the manufacturer since the guarantee has not expired and I’ll keep you posted.

Game changer
I never write reviews but I had to for this one . I made a serious life change of working till 3am to getting a job where I have to get up at 5am. So you can imagine that’s not an easy transition. I bought this little dude and it gives me the kick that I need to wake up . It’s SO easy to use . I also have a small kitchen so it’s nice to get kitchen gadget that doesn’t take up realestate . If you have an electric kettle(I do for my French press) you can have a shot of espresso in no time . Im also an outdoorsy person so this is perfect to take camping too . Couldn’t recommend more .

Makes the best espresso
Bought this for my trip because I know where I’m staying there won’t be an espresso makerThis little machine will pack easily into my suitcase and make yummy lattes for me

Makes great espresso! Convenient for travel , easy to use and clean.Bought this for my husband for Christmas who travels for work, just like most he needs his caffeine, he absolutely loves it. Makes the perfect coffee! (If paired with the right coffe grinds of course) purchased the ‘Kicking Horse coffee – Kick ass Dark roast’.

Excelente calidad en los materiales aun siendo de plastico, se siente firme y robusta. Hace falta un poco de mayor capacidad ya que solo se puede preparar una carga de expresso por carga, pero eso se puede solucionar comprando el Batista Kit. No tengo queja alguna, que para ser una maquina de expresso tan pequeña, vale mucho la pena.

Hallo zusammen.Die tragbare Espressomaschine von WACACO ist mit Abstand das coolste, was ich mir im Bereich Kaffe/Espresso bisher zugelegt habe.Neben einer French-Press und einem Bialetti Moka Express ergänzt die kleine Espresso-To-Go Handpumpe mein kleines Sortiment.Die Verarbeitung ist wirklich sehr gut. Das ganze Gerät wirkt hochwertig und edel.Man kann das gesamte Zubehör in und an dem Gerät verstauen und mit einem kleinen Beutel umpacken. Mit dem beiliegendem Messlöffel lässt sich die perfekte Menge an Pulver abmessen. AnschlieÃend setzt man den Sieb verkehrtherum auf den Messlöffel und dreht das ganze um. Der Inhalt fällt also in den Siebbehälter und kann dann mit der Unterseite des Messlöffels perfekt angedrückt werden. Nun setzt man den Sieb in die vorgesehene Fläche dafür ein und schraubt den Kopf auf das Gerät. AnschlieÃend kommt kochendes Wasser in den Wasserbehälter (mit Mengenmakierung) und dieser wird ebenfalls fest zugedreht.(AUFGEPASST!! – hier habe ich bei der ersten Benutzung einen Fehler gemacht und den Behälter nicht bis zum Anschlag verschraubt! Dann ist mir beim umdrehen und pumpen das kochende Wasser über die Hand gelaufen. Unangenehm – aber mein Fehler.)Wenn man dann alles verschraubt hat wird das ganze Gerät ungedreht und die Pumpe durch leichtes drehen herausgedrückt. Nun einmal das ganze Gerät umdrehen und die kleine Ãffnung über dem Deckel des Gerätes, welcher als Becher dient, halten und loslegen mit dem pumpen. Nach etwa 5-7 mal drücken kommt dann der Espresso heraus.Super schön cremig und schaumig. Intensiver Geschmack und meiner Meinung nach die perfekte Temperatur zum trinken. Ich hasse es wenn die Getränke gottlos heià sind und man sich den Mund verbrennt. Es ist logisch das während dem Pumpvorgang und der kleinen Menge die bei jedem Pumpstoà herauskommt, der Espresso etwas abkühlt. Da einige Rezensionen der Meinung sind der Inhalt wäre ja kalt und nicht zu genieÃen.. das sehe ich nicht so. Perfekte Temperatur zum genieÃen.Ich nutze das Gerät jetzt schon knapp 6 Monate und alles funktioniert wie am ersten Tag. Ich bin vollends zufrieden und würde mir das Gerät immer wieder kaufen. Ganz klare Kaufempfehlung und der Preis ist ebenfalls unschlagbar. Man kriegt hier für wenig Geld eine sehr gute und langlebige Verarbeitung und einen super leckeren Espresso!Danke WACACO für das tolle Gerät und auch an Amazon für die schnelle Lieferung.Liebe GrüÃe, ein zufriedener Kunde
