WACACO Minipresso NS Review
The WACACO Minipresso NS is a portable espresso machine that's designed to use Nespresso Original capsules and compatibles. This makes it incredibly convenient, as each capsule is ground, measured, and tamped to high precision, reducing the chances of error. Additionally, the use of capsules ensures a mess-free process and makes it easier to clean up after use.
Manual Operation
This espresso machine is manually operated. To use it, you simply add a compatible capsule into the outlet head, pour hot water into the water tank, unlock the piston from its travel position, and pump a few strokes. This pressurizes and extracts a delicious espresso with a generous crema. Note that you will need to add hot water yourself, as the device does not heat water.
Great Partner for Travel
If you’re a frequent traveler, the Minipresso NS is an excellent companion. It allows you to quickly and efficiently enjoy a delicious espresso wherever you are. The espresso consistently looks great and tastes fantastic, making it a reliable option for coffee lovers on the go.
Compatibility Note
While the Minipresso NS is compatible with Nespresso Original capsules and other compatible capsules, it's important to note that some non-original capsules may not work well with the machine. This can impact the quality of your espresso, so it's worth choosing your capsules carefully.
One thing to keep in mind is that the package does not include any accessories. However, you can purchase additional accessories like the Minipresso Tank+ or Minipresso Case separately. These accessories allow you to enjoy longer shots of espresso, up to 100ml, and help protect the machine from scratches. Additional exclusive accessories are also available on the WACACO store or in the product description.
Conclusion
The WACACO Minipresso NS is a versatile and reliable portable espresso machine that excels in convenience and ease of use, thanks to its compatibility with Nespresso Original capsules. While you'll need to bring your own hot water and the package lacks accessories, the machine's ability to produce a high-quality espresso wherever you are makes these minor drawbacks. It's a must-have for any espresso lover who enjoys traveling.
