Wacaco Picopresso Portable Espresso Maker
Picopresso is the most compact and pro-oriented of our portable espresso machines. This specialty coffee espresso machine features a naked portafilter, so users will see delicious creamy espresso flowing directly from a standard 52mm 18 grams stainless steel filter basket during the brewing process.
BREW LIKE A PRO
With the Picopresso there are no shortcuts. Each home brewer must master the art of manual espresso making by dialing in the correct grind size, tamping, and perfecting pulling technique – their reward; an authentic cafe-quality espresso that will rival any expensive high-end machine.
30 SECONDS TO CREMA
Add espresso ultra-fine coffee to the basket, tamp, preinfuse for 8 seconds and reach a pressure of 9-12 bars during extraction. Watch your espresso fall from the naked portafilter into your cup, breath in the aroma of a well balanced Picopresso shot. That's all it takes to reach perfection.
TIPS
You’ll want to invest in a quality coffee grinder like Timemore C2 or Comandante C40 MK4. To achieve the correct level of extraction during the brewing process, you’ll need a fine or ultra fine grind on your coffee beans . Your standard grocery store pre-ground coffee will produce wretched results.
