Awesome travel espresso

This is perfect for when I am traveling. I think it could be slightly smaller and lighter, but I won't complain about that too much. My one reservation is whether I am going to be able to keep the nozzle clean enough, as it does not seem to be possible to disassemble it for cleaning. So far it seems to rinse out clean relatively easily, though. I was slightly skeptical, but I have made half a dozen espressos so far, and it is every bit as good as those I get from my Nespresso machine. Here are a couple of tips: If you have trouble with grip, such as if you have arthritis, you will probably find it too hard to squeeze the pump. It takes about 20 or 30 pumps to get a full shot, and you need to do this twice, because you need to do it once with plain hot water to warm everything up. Speaking of warming up, if you do not run boiling water through the machine once before making a shot, your espresso will be cold. I recommend heating up your cup as well. If you have used a Nespresso machine, the pumping speed will be intuitive. Just pump fast enough to match the flow, and you will get the right brew time and a great shot. Seattle coffee gear has a YouTube review if you want to see it in action before using it. All in all, this is easily my new favorite travel coffee maker, and I will no longer be carrying a grinder, beans, and an Aeropress machine when I travel. Hooray! I am attaching a photo just after making a shot, including a kitchen knife for scale.

Brews a perfect Nespresso shot!

It does everything it says it will do although it takes a lot more than 8 pumps to prime the water pressure.... More like 24! BUT... it brews a perfect shot of Nespresso once it does get going - with a frothy head and everything! I’m on the road a lot and stay in a lot of average hotel rooms with crappy instant coffee. Having my portable Nespresso maker on the road with me is a God send!

An amazing little gadget

An amazing little gadget. I am a sailor and love my morning espresso. Just came back from sailing 2 weeks in the Sea of Cortez and being able to have great espresso in the morning was amazing. Easy to use, easy to clean. A great cup of espresso each time. I bought the boat owner one and he loves it as well.

GREAT TASTING ESPRESSO ON MOTORCYCLE TRIPS

I take long trips on my motorcycle, most often staying in roadside motels along the way. The Wacaco Minipresso is ideal for making a delicious early morning latte. After heating boiling water and warming milk in the in-room microwave, I insert a Nespresso pod (Peet's pods are excellent) and pump. The pods are clean and easier to use than ground coffee. Pumping requires a little effort but I rationalize it as good exercise. Packing is premium on a motorcycle and the Minipresso takes up very little room.

Espresso whenever and wherever

So, I bought this for the office. I do not use every single day but every now and then. It is a good deal. I can make my espresso whenever and wherever. I bring my Nespresso pods to work and some soy milk and bam, I make my soy lattes at work. I am saving money from going to the coffee shops.

Great espresso while traveling!

I love this thing - it makes a great shot of espresso. Some of the places I travel just have lousy coffee and this will make the trip a lot more pleasant. Only downside is that the cup just snaps on and is not very snug. Highly recommend getting the case for it.

Fantastic gadget!

I love this so much! I had purchased a different manual one and returned it the first time I used it, it was a nightmare. This is so easy to use and my first cup was perfection! I'm so happy I found this because I had ordered about 100 Nespresso cups for the other one and was almost crying when I was trying to use it, then I couldn't get it apart. This is top quality, so easy to use and take apart and clean. I plan on buying one for a girlfriend who loves espresso for her birthday.

Perfect travel companion

I had purchased this for my partner when he travels, as one of his biggest complaints about staying in hotels was the lack of waking up to good coffee. Nespresso pods make it so convenient. Light and compact enough for air travel; TSA has never given him issues. Haven't heard a single complaint, only praise!

Really great travel espresso!

I wish the water was a bit hotter, but still great! It was a gift and he loved it!

Fantastic.

This is a fantastic machine. I bought it for traveling, but it has ended up replacing my (not inexpensive) home machine because of the high quality espresso that it makes. I can't speak to its longevity, but I've been using it for a few months now with no issues.
