"Handpresso" Mobile Espresso Machine : DigInfo






DigInfo - www.diginfo.tv Related Links www.handpresso.fr www.daisaku-shoji.co.jp 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." Tokyo International Gift Show AUTUMN 2008

  1. Coffee powder that comes in a small pack? Pft. Can I use my own ground beans?

  4. You may as well purchase a 12 volt VELOX for the same amount of money AND it boils water for the espresso too!
    If you buy a 120 volt to 12 volt adapter, you can use the VELOX espresso maker at home too!
    I bought mine at Javaxotic

  5. Totally agree with you. Hopefully an enterprising boffin will make some kind of re-usable nylon pod similar to those that became available for the Pod machines.

  9. great idea let down by the need to use 'pods'. Make a version that you can use with what ever coffee you want and you'll have a real winner!

  11. I've heard that Mypressi Twist delivers better shoot than either the Handpresso and on par or even better than from Rancilio but I've not tried any of them. I love my Bialetti Brikka and I don't find much difference between it and an espresso from a café(but I find a difference but it's not worth the money) but it's for sure better than any coffee I tasted from all automatic machines.

  12. I have no long-term experience with it, but it's built really well. Felt sturdy and reliable.

  17. I bought one in the Netherlands. Verdict: Not as good as a good machine made one but better than most espressos served from machines by average cafe's. I'm using illy-pads with dark roasted espresso coffee. Not handy for making lot's of coffee but if you're in a place where there's no good coffee this saves the day big time. Well worth my money.

    There seems to be a new one from another company witch operates by a gas-container and can make two cups at a time but haven't tried that one (yet).

  19. 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.

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

    plus you can actually make those coffee packs yourself

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