Cafflano Kompresso, Authentic Espresso Maker

I would highly recommend if needed a remote use. You can use it at home as well but I would say it’s more for when you can’t have a proper espresso machine. It’s getting pretty close to proper espresso.

Amazing for what it is! Provided you know what to expect and how to manage your grinder, temperature, tamping etc this will produce a very enjoyable espresso. Is it the same as the espressos produced by a semi professional/professional set up? No, however it is a lot similar to a real espresso than any other portable devices could ever achieve. Combine this with a decent hand grinder and you have a very interesting travel/portable set up. Highly recommended.

A colleague at work had one these and after trying the coffee it produced I was convinced and bought one for myself. Easy to use, easy to clean, fast, no mess, great tasting coffee. Small and compact for travelling too You need to use really finely ground coffee for this machine to work well.

This is amazing coffee machine, small, compact, all you need is boiled water and you get a very good espresso full with flavors. Actually this espresso is better than many mid range espresso machines. Definitely I recommend, however you have to learn how to use it.

Waste of money. It doesn’t do what it promises

LOVE IT! makes great espresso on the go, the only fault is that it will not be as hot as when you make it with the machine, but it tastes just as great :)

This coffee tool is well-built,is made with solid material,I stil have to work on the right amount of coffee and water, for having a good espresso shot.Amazon service was perfect ad usual

With the correct grind and amount of coffee, good temperature (just off the boil, in my opinion), and slow extraction, amazingly good.

Good product, does the job well! I like how the workflow of this is not too complicated and long as compared to flair neo. Just have to look out for the exact grind size and you will get rich shots which are full of crema. I feel this little handcrafted machine is underrated and can surprise you with decent enough 25-32ml shot.

I've owned this for 1 year, and with the right coffee and compacting, this is equal to a good cafe espresso. Well designed, light and easy to carry (I carry it to work everyday).

I was curious about Espresso after years of pour-over and AeroPress. I also wanted something tiny and cheap enough to take when camping or traveling. It had to be low maintenance, allow quick reload and it needed to be able to make a decent espresso. I got this one without high hopes! This thing hit an espresso homerun with the second try!! Key: 1. Your grinder setting is critical!! For ZPresso K-Ultra - No lower than 2.5, No higher than 3! Depends on the beans. 2. Use boiling water as it drops in temperature. 3. Preheat the tube by pouring over it on the outside. Yeah! Of course you have to keep it horizontal for that step. Why am I even writing this disclaimer :D 4. Once you see first drops come out stop increasing the pressure, keep it steady. 5. Once you hit bottom keep it pressed until the drops stop coming out (~ 30 sec). Tip: You can go a tiny! bit over the 60 mark for a fuller cup. Observations: 1. The finger squeezing handles are useless. You will always be using the palm of your hand pushing down. Zero chance to get this done with fingers only. 2. The cup for pressing the coffee powder is small by a whole milimeter. Annoying but not a major deal. I can see the next model coming out with wider top for palm push only and a cup that fits perfectly when compressing the coffee. In all - You will be able to make a wonderful espresso both at home and in the field as long as you have boiling water and a small, smooth, flat surface to push onto safely. You will be able to do this faster and with less fuss than most other portable manual solutions. The pictures show the making of a fantastic Cortado!

I switch from my daily drip coffee to kompresso and it’s worth it! It’s definitely not up to the level of real espresso yet! However, it’s much more accessible and save me money from buying espresso from store time to time!
