WACACO PIXAPRESSO, Coffee Machine Electric & Portable, With 4 Coffee Types & Fast Heat-Up, 3 * 3000mAh Battery, 20 Bar Portable Espresso Maker For Ground Coffee & NS Capsule, Dark Burgundy

Just got home from a 5 day fishing trip. We were extremely happy and satisfied with the espresso and the ease of use of our pixapresso. We were able to make many espressos with preheated water. It does use up a lot of battery power when using it to heat the water. But in a crunch, it can heat up water pretty quickly and efficiently. And make several drinks before needing recharged. The picture shows my whole setup. With the nespresso pod knockoffs, we were able to fill with our own coffee grounds and also very happy and satisfied with the results using those. We also used the ground coffee option, which was also just as enjoyable. The stand I am using for our Pixapresso was purchased separately and the sticker received with the pixapresso was used to put on the stand to customize it. All the accessories were purchased through Amazon as well. Being able to customize the filter to accommodate 16 g of coffee was primarily the reason behind purchasing this particular portable espresso maker. This is the only portable espresso maker I have used so unable to compare it to how others might perform. The charging cord provided is extremely short, but it is a USB -C, and we always have many of those types of cords laying around. There are 2 other color options available, but not on Amazon it seems. I would have preferred the Olive green, but it's not a huge issue. This is also very easy to maintain and keep clean.

Recommend starting too coarse and going finer to dial in. Once dialed it produces really great espresso with a lot of crema and great texture, taste and smell. I ussually used boil water but still use the machines heating function and the machine produces abpout 10 espressos before a charge. I use the basket unpressurized as well, but crry the ball and spring for convenience

Purchased 6 months ago. I thought this would be great for travel and using it in the camper with the Nespresso pods. On the first 10 brewing cycles I got 8 great cups of coffee. Two brewing efforts failed. On the second 10 brewing cycles I got 2 great cups of coffee and 8 brewing failures. The system has difficulty puncturing the Nespresso pods correctly and this got worse overtime. Tried several different pods but this didn’t make a difference. Seemed like a great idea/great tech - but it didn’t pan out.

Great on the go Coffee

Been using this at sea level with freshly-ground beans and it has been great. I brought it with me to use while on vacation at altitude (9800 ft) with Nespresso pods and it would not brew. It could not build up enough pressure to dispense more than ~ 5 ml and then would quit. Also since water boils at lower temperature at altitude, it has trouble achieving the target temp even at the lowest setting. After arriving at home, I tested it again with a Nespresso pod and it worked perfectly. Just keep in mind if you're planning on using it at altitude, that it may not work as expected.

It is very simple, and if you use the NP pods clean up is a very easy thing. Heats water very well and makes a tasty brew. I travel allot and stay in places the coffee is not great so now I can make my own! Love it!

The machine worked fine for the first month, but after that the water pressure dropped and it no longer performs as expected.

Prepara expresos exquisitos

Muy buena opción si te gusta el Café expresso, muy facil de usar si utilizas cápsulas NS y requiere algo de conocimiento para usarla con café molido ya que es indispensable que no quede ni muy fino ni muy gruesa la molienda y lo otro es que el tampeo sea el adecuado

Very good, makes excellent espresso.great product.

十数年前にAmazonで購入した手動式のコーヒーメーカーがいよいよパッキン部分が劣化して故障したため電動メーカーを購入 デジタル表示や使用方法も皆さんの投稿を見ながらやれば簡単にできました。以前のポンプ押しもなく部品の分解も簡単でコーヒーカス捨てるのもポロリと捨てることができて非常に楽になりました。投稿にもありましたがお湯を計って入れる方が早く抽出できます。

Performs as expected. It's very useful to have this in the backpack when I'm on the road. The fact I can make expresso on the road is very reassuring. Neat well thought out package. Simple to use. Materials feel very premium. I like that all you need fits inside the water chamber. I opted for the travel case. It holds 6 Nespresso pods and an extra head and barista towel. Note: Definitely try and source hot water. It helps with the battery.

Worked fine for about 1 week. Then it stopped being able to pierce the coffee capsules. Instead water flows around the capsule and leaks out past the supposed seal. Have tried all different capsule brands with same result. Last 10 capsules I tried, it successfully made a coffee with only 1.
