The HandPresso Wild is a hand-held, portable espresso maker. It makes real espresso using 16 bar of pressure to force hot water through the ground coffee in about 30 seconds. This is no gimmick, but a viable device for making espresso almost anywhere. HandPresso is made for use in the outdoors -- hiking, backpacking, camping, and for use anywhere you want espresso -- the office, outdoor concerts, the ball game, auto racing, your lunch break at the park, etc. Real, quality espresso can now be had almost anywhere. HandPresso has a built-in pump, operated just like a bicycle pump. You stroke it until the gauge's pointer is in the green zone -- 16 bars of pressure. The portafilter cap is then removed and hot water poured into the reservoir (please be careful not to burn yourself). You then lay an espresso pod in place (the HandPresso uses only E.S.E.-style espresso pods). The portafilter cap is then attached and secured. Now the fun begins. Simply turn the unit over and gravity places the hot water in contact with the pod. Push the Espresso Start button and the stored air pressure forces the water through the espresso pod, out the spout, and into your cup. It's that simple. For more shots -- simply repeat. The Handpresso Wild is constructed superbly. Many of the parts are constructed of velvet-finish plastic to give a good grip and be cooler to the touch. The unit arrives in an elegant black box.
