“Handpresso” Mobile Espresso Machine

diginfo – www.diginfo.tv

Daisaku Shoji Ltd. exhibited the “Handpresso” mobile espresso machine at the Autumn 2008 Tokyo International Gift Show. The Handpresso works with high pressure extraction using an air pump and doesn’t require electricity, so it can be easily carried with you when traveling such as to the beach or mountains for enjoyment of high quality espresso anytime and anywhere. The Handpresso, which was developed in France, is a simple, compact unit with a hint of elegance and is cherished by espresso fans worldwide. “It’s very simple to make espresso with the Handpresso. Simply pump the machine to a pressure of 16 bar, add coffee powder that comes in a small pack, and pour in some hot water. Now you can easily enjoy delicious espresso anytime no matter where you are.”

      uhm $23 x 52 = $1196. A bit less than $5000 :)

      I have tried both the pod version and the ground coffe version , and they work great ! You get more crema from ground coffee . Not as good as a shot from my Rancilio but much better than any Saeco I’ve tried.

      this is actually pretty cool, i mean what do you expect for 120$?

      plus you can actually make those coffee packs yourself

      that espresso doesn’t look that good, and the thought of ‘ground coffee that comes in small packs’ makes me shudder….

      Exactly! My boss easily hits over $23 a week on Starbucks. So that’s almost $5,000 a year! I wonder if he knows he’s paying what must the equivalent of $40-50 a gallon on their coffee per year.

      As someone who actually owns the machine, I can say that the espresso quality is on par with the best I’ve had from a pod machine (make sure to buy individual packets – I made the mistake of buying the Illy “vaccum sealed” tin and it tasted horrible within only a few days).

      The build quality is actually very good, despite what it looks like in some videos.

      Also $120 (or $90, as it is now) is peanuts for a quality espresso machine. Some run into the thousands of dollars!

      Easy, if you’re the kind of person that purchases 1 espresso drink from a retail outlet every day. $5 * 365 = …!!!

      How would adding an espresso machine SAVE you ANY money? Let alone $120?

      Why not just add an Espresso machine and save the $120!

      FAIL.
