“Easy to use, and compact enough to carry around.”

“An excellent espresso maker, and easier to understand and use than other models.”

“This product is amazing. We were traveling in the mountains in Norway and we made fresh coffee in a parking lot. We love this coffee maker.”

“I use Nespresso capsules, they work very well, and one battery can make 4 coffees. While charging the battery, it is not possible to make coffee.”

“Works exactly as expected. If you put hot water in it, the battery lasts longer and the coffee extracts faster. I liked it; I no longer have to drink bad coffee at my job.”

“Honestly, I found the device to be excellent and easy to use. It heats water to a temperature of 90 degrees and extracts coffee effectively. You can take it with you anywhere. I highly recommend it.”

“It can also brew very fine coffee. I brewed fresh ground coffee and Nespresso capsules with it until now. Both were surprisingly refined. It was a very good purchase for me. I can only recommend it to everyone.”

“I bought it specifically to take with me to the Sahara in Morocco, and I could not be happier with the choice. I used only hot water, and after four coffees a day the battery barely drained. A very happy customer.”

“Took a chance on this espresso maker and it exceeded my expectations. The only drawback is battery life. You can get 3-5 brews off a single full charge, but a full charge takes hours. Overall worth the money though.”

“I have been carrying this on short trips and it does exactly what I wanted. It heats water quickly and pushes out a flavorful espresso with a nice crema on top. The single-button setup keeps it simple, so I don't have to fiddle with settings.”

Capsules, or your own coffee

The head takes an adapter for small espresso capsules, a lid for larger ones, or a basket for loose ground coffee — including Nespresso and Dolce Gusto.

The portable espresso maker — Watch the water climb

You can watch the water climb

A small display shows the water temperature as it rises and times the pull. One button runs everything: a long press extracts, a double press heats first.

Why We Chose It

Most travel coffee makers need you to find hot water first — the hard part of making coffee away from home. This one carries its own: a battery drives a heating element, a pump pushes it through a capsule or a spoonful of grounds, the same act you'd perform at your own counter. From cold water it takes about five minutes and gives roughly three shots per charge; start with hot water and you get four or five. The tank holds 2.7 fl oz and it won't brew while charging — fair trades for a proper shot where there wasn't one.

Questions

Everything else worth asking.

How many coffees do I get from one charge?

About three from cold water. Start with hot water and owners report four to five.

How long does it take to make a coffee?

About five minutes from cold water; hot water goes straight to the shot.

Can I use it while it is charging?

No. It brews on its own battery, so charge it before you go and use it away from a socket.

Do I need a kettle or a power socket?

Neither. It heats its own water, so cold water from a tap or a bottle is enough.

What can I brew with it?

Espresso capsules, larger drink capsules under the bigger lid, or loose ground coffee.

What is in the box?

The machine, an English manual, a USB cable and a measuring spoon. No stand or carry bag ships with this version.

How do I clean it?

Fill the tank with plain water, leave the capsule out, and hold the button for two seconds.

How big and heavy is it?

3.3 × 3.3 × 9.9 in and 25 oz — about the size and weight of a full water bottle, and a real one to carry.

Excellent product. Portable coffee machine. Beautiful design, materials feel good, silicone seals between parts. I tried the device as soon as it arrived, didn't charge the battery. I put cold water from the water dispenser, at 15 degrees. The machine heated the water to 90 degrees according to the reading on its display, it took about 5-6 minutes, I didn't measure, then the compressor started and the water came out under pressure into the cup. The battery dropped one bar out of 5.

very nice thing. it brews coffee even from cold water, first it heats up, then runs through ground coffee. on level 7 and preparing one portion consumed 25% of the charge, quite not bad. It's better to pour coffee as much as possible and tamp it down. satisfied with the purchase of this coffee machine. I recommend it. by the way, the display shows the water temperature and preparation time (countdown).

I use Nespresso capsules, they work very well, and one battery can make 4 coffees. While charging the battery, it is not possible to make coffee.

Works exactly as expected. If you put hot water in it, the battery lasts longer and the coffee extracts faster. I liked it; I no longer have to drink bad coffee at my job.

It works very well! Tested with both sizes of capsules, it extracted the coffee well. It is important to respect the capacity of the tank when choosing the capsule or having hot water nearby to complete the extraction with the remaining water for 120ml capsules.

I found this product because I had leftover broken Nescafe Dolce Gusto capsules and bought it. It's compact but also has a water heating function and supports powder. I immediately tried different capsules and coffee beans to enjoy espresso. It was a very good purchase and I am very satisfied.

It can also brew very fine coffee. I brewed fresh ground coffee and Nespresso capsules with it until now. Both were surprisingly refined. It was a very good purchase for me. I can only recommend it to everyone.

Great coffee, great coffee machine. I was definitely surprised! Amazing taste. The waiting is absolutely worth it — just heat some water (for example on a gas stove) and enjoy the speed and convenience of having delicious coffee while camping!

Perfect for travel and busy mornings. I love that it heats itself and works with both grounds and capsules, so I have options on the go. The display makes it simple to use, and the 20-bar pressure brews a surprisingly rich shot. Compact enough for the car or for camping, and USB-C charging makes it convenient.

This product is amazing. We were traveling in the mountains in Norway and we made fresh coffee in a parking lot. We love this coffee maker.

I bought it specifically to take with me to the Sahara in Morocco, and I could not be happier with the choice. I used only hot water, and after four coffees a day the battery barely drained. A very happy customer.

An excellent espresso maker, and easier to understand and use than other models.

Easy to use, and compact enough to carry around.

I picked this up for travel and camping and it has been a pleasant surprise. It works with both capsules and ground coffee, which makes it versatile. The display is handy for checking the battery and the heating progress, and it brings water to brewing temperature in a few minutes. The 20-bar pressure gives a surprisingly rich shot with good crema, not watery like some other portable machines.

Great for camping and travel. With hot water the battery lasts for many drinks, and with cold water it makes about three to five coffees. Super convenient, and it works really well.

Compact and lightweight, so it is easy to use and to travel with. It makes a good cup and works well with my capsules. It holds a good amount of water and holds it securely, and it heats up quickly. It feels strong and sturdy, and it has held up well to traveling.

I travel a lot for work, and hotel rooms rarely have good coffee. This fits in my carry-on without taking up much space. It heats water on its own, which is a huge plus when the room has no kettle. I have used it with capsules and with regular grounds, and the flavor is consistent. The display shows temperature and battery clearly, so I know exactly what to expect.

I love using this when I am out for a walk or a hike. It brews a rich, well-flavored shot, and it takes both coffee grounds and capsules. Cordless and rechargeable, so it works for camping, and it heats its own water so I don't have to boil any. Just the right size for one person.

I have been carrying this on short trips and it does exactly what I wanted. It heats water quickly and pushes out a flavorful espresso with a nice crema on top. The single-button setup keeps it simple, so I don't have to fiddle with settings.

I take this everywhere: road trips, camping, even to the office. The self-heating is the best part, because I don't need to boil water separately. Add water, press the button, and in a couple of minutes I have a rich, hot espresso. The display makes it easy to see the temperature and the progress.

It makes a decent cup of espresso. I like that it heats the water too, although it takes more battery power. It tells you what temperature the water is when you fill it and then shows you the degrees as it heats it up. If you accidentally put the small coffee lid on upside down it is really hard to remove it, so be sure the pointy side is facing down.

Over the past week, I have gone from, "It makes decent coffee" to "Now that's espresso!". There is a definite learning curve and it took me a bit of trial and error to get the desired result. But I've found that in order for it to work effectively and get espresso, 2 full scoops of finely ground espresso beans have to be added to the coffee filter basket. Then the tamper actually makes a puck.

Hot coffee and quite creamy, still good. I find the machine's heating time a bit long but still acceptable. Drinking coffee in the middle of the sea is priceless!

The machine works as expected and should be great for travel in the airport and at hotels with no coffee machine. I am using it with Nespresso pods. The water reservoir is very small. I'd rather have a larger reservoir and have it take twice as long.

I am very pleasantly surprised by this device! I make coffee from a capsule, and after a short period of operation of this machine, I have a solid, tasty coffee (it's not a thick and strong espresso, but rather a small, strong lungo, but when traveling, what more could you want). As a person who likes to drink coffee, I will definitely take this machine not only on trips but also on hiking or motorcycle excursions.

I'm currently taking care of my dad in the hospital, so I often sleep at the hospital and have to drink coffee outside, but buying it every time costs a lot of money and the drip is a hassle, so I bought it. Honestly, I didn't expect much, but it's amazing!!! It's really awesome!! I think both office workers and campers will find it very useful!

Took a chance on this espresso maker and it exceeded my expectations. The only drawback is battery life. You can get 3-5 brews off a single full charge, but a full charge takes hours. Overall worth the money though.

An incredibly cool gadget. Suitable for hiking, traveling, and for those with small kitchens where there's no space for a full-sized machine. Made 2 cups of coffee using hot water, and the battery didn't decrease by a single bar. Highly recommended!

This machine works extremely well, I was skeptical but thought id give it ago as dont have a decent coffee machine at work. Heats liquid and auto expresses within 5mins. Can use it with water from kettle for instant expressing. Glad I went with this one with stainless steel heating section and screen for temp and expression.

I bought this for when I'm traveling. Works well with plain espresso capsules (I don't recommend it for ones with milk powder in them, like the Dolce Gusto ones). The battery lasts a lot longer if you fill the machine with boiling water and do a quick extraction rather than having it heat the water itself.

Honestly, I found the device to be excellent and easy to use. It heats water to a temperature of 90 degrees and extracts coffee effectively. You can take it with you anywhere. I highly recommend it.
