Minipresso NS, Portable Espresso Machine, Compatible with *Nespresso®* CAPSULES and compatibles, Small Travel Coffee Maker, Manually Operated Coffee Machine for Camping

As I was packing for my camping trip I discovered that I was missing bits from my original wacaco coffee maker, I looked at buying replacements for the bits I was missing but that would have ended up costing me almost as much as a new one so I decided on upgrading to this model. It's a bit smaller and actually feels more solid and premium. For me personally it's excellent value as there is no way I can camp without my coffee and being compatible with my Nespresso pods means it's super simple and mess free. It's really light so great for packing, my old one I would take to the office every so often and this one is even smaller so will be even easier. Also can take it on hikes (with a thermos of hot water) for coffee on the go. The water tank in this one is simply the main unit, so pour in the boiling water and screw on lid. This is a massive upgrade to the previous one where the water tank was separate and you really had to be precise about getting it on or you ended up getting boiling water on your hands. So actually I am really pleased I lost bits to my old one. Also this one being pretty much altogether there is less chance that I will misplace bits. To brew it's super simple, pop your pod in the holder screw on the bottom bit, fill with boiling water, close lid, turn the manual pump to release it so it pops out then pump, it quickly gets to pressure then you continue squeezing until the water has run out, it's easy to tell when, coffee is brewed perfectly complete with creme. I have used it with Nespresso and compatible pods with no issues both work well. This particular one is for Nespresso classic pods only, if you want to use ground coffee you need to pick a different model. I much prefer this to my rechargable one. It's so much more portable and you don't have to worry about charging it you just need the ability to boil water or bring a thermos of pre boiled water with you. It's a must have for my camping trips.

Had a bad experience with one of these machines only to realise you don’t go at like a bull in a china shop. If you had flabby arms before you won’t after. I tried the heat the unit and cup method and with a dash of hot water left in the cup. Makes the best and smoothest crema going .i am a coffee snob since I was 10 I’m 55 now I can take this out with me have great coffee and tone my arms at the same time . So glad I bought the device . Pods much easier especially on my bad brain days . In conclusion fluffing great coffee Update 13.12.25 ———————- I have been this solidly for a month and I have to say who ever invented this is an outdoorsy person . This devise is built to last Easy to clean And for someone with acromegaly my sausage fingers can work and get the pods out the device with ease I adore the case you buy as an add on Fab for not a) losing one’s pods ( crime do sure ) and b) protection the unit too Love love the pod case and it fits so nicely into the case Looks super flash in the park opening it up and it’s just all there Thank you Wacaco

I am mightily impressed by this. I love coffee and making Moka at home and nespresso in the office. In general I don't like coffee shop espresso (which I drink). I don't put milk so acidic single origin coffee at fancy coffee shops doesn't appeal to me. I also don't want to be spending 3 pounds for coffee chain coffee. I have been eyeing a portable nespresso machine for the last two years. I was between this or one that is also heating the water and has a mechanised pump. I recently started a new position that at the kitchen I can't plug a machine. So I couldn't bring my nespresso machine. But there is a boiling water smart tap. When the Black Friday sale came, I thought it was time to get one. Here is my review after 3 weeks of use. The good * well made and designed * very light and small size easy to carry back and forth * very nice crema * very nice coffee The acceptable annoyances : * Doesn't do well with some pods (it doesn't puncture them well, and sometimes they come out crashed after pulling a shot) * sometimes water comes out without going through the capsule * hard to open the bottom after brewing (would have been better to have a slight grip on the top to help the twisting) The bad : Pricey when you can buy portable powered machines with the same price

Initial feelings on unboxing were those of happiness. The wrong instructions were included - for the ground coffee and not for the NS model. But it's obvious from the products ergonomics where to put the Nespresso pod. The quality feels solid on the threads used to screw the unit together. I washed with hot water first and flushed with hot water to warm the unit. I think this is a good idea, as it would also be to warm the cup you are using too. I filled it up with water, added a Nespresso pod. Screwed together and started to pump. You need to do it pretty firmly, and after 4 pumps as the pressure in the unit builds, you could hear the pod inside engage with some very sharp teeth which puncture the pod. Don't touch the sharp teeth!! Strong coffee started to flow. I'd say after three pumps you could stop and you'd have a very intense ristretto style. I kept going as I like mine a bit weaker than that. Obviously the more you pour the weaker the coffee gets. I recommend to put about 10% more water than you would normally use into the reservoir so you have sufficient for your beverage. Just stop pumping when you're done. It was a little stiff to undo the pressure containing piece after I drank the coffee. No real mess. A rinse and it's ready to go again. Coffee was excellent. If I had to compare it to my dedicated Nespresso machine I'd say it's 95%... but extremely close. Maybe a tiny tiny bit thinner but really it could just be me. It's very good. Very convenient. And seems on initial experience, well built. Only word of warning: it involves pouring boiling water into a small reservoir, and then screwing parts together. So you need to be careful and have somewhere safe and stable to make the drink of you could quite easily knock it or spill water on your hand and hurt yourself. Really nice portable product. Intuitive enough to use without the instructions. Would make a great gift for a coffee lover if they already have a favourite Nespresso flavour, so they can replicate it on the move. It makes one coffee at a time and I'd say it takes two minutes or so from when your water is boiled to put it together and product the drink. So you probably wouldn't want to make a round of 10 cofffee with it. Really for a solo or couple of coffees on the go. Highly recommended

This worked perfectly for about 20 goes, using Nespresso pods, and I loved it, however durability seems poor. It failed, for no discernable reason. The seal looks intact, the prongs to pierce the pod look intact, however the plastic grid to pierce the metal film over the pod doesn't work, and doesn't pierce the pod. I tried several times, with several pods, and each time the same result. I'm not using the machine any differently; it has just stopped working correctly. The result is hot water leaking out of the bottom of the machine, around the pod, and a ruined useless pod (the top is pierced, but not the bottom, so I can't re-use it in another machine - see photos). I'm going to try and get a replacement or refund, but not holding out much hope looking at previous reviews.

Great product although always a risk of scalding yourself when filling the water tank . Caution advised . Other than that I love it

This makes an excellent espresso (or a lungo with extra hot water) but OUCH!!! The sheer brute force needed to squeeze the water through the capsule every morning has caused both hands to be really painful and I'm not a weakling. I have to use my right palm to have enough strength to pump the machine while holding it still/tight with my left hand - how anyone just uses their thumbs to pump the coffee out - hats off to you, you're strong!

Works like a charm, lightweight and sleek design. Easy to use and easy to clean after use. Suitable for all l'or style pods. Use it almost every day, has a lid that doubles as an espresso sized cup.

Lichtgewicht, doet perfect wat ie moet doen en ziet er nog mooi uit ook. Jammer dat de case er niet standaard bij zit, die heb ik er nu apart bij gekocht.

Killer product, the pour is even better than the machine Must buy for coffee lovers

Quelle super invention ! Il faut quand même mettre de l’eau chaude …. Mais vraiment super pratique pour avoir un shot de café ! J’adore

Kanon när man är ute på äventyr i naturen! Funkar klockrent! Blir inte super varmt men jag tar alltid med en liten espresso kopp i porslin som jag förvärmer med hett vatten för bästa resultat! 👍♥️

zeker handig als de russen komen😁😁😁
