I’ve got to get my hands on one of these portable espresso makers. I love coffer. I mean, I really love coffee. My favorite coffee would be straight espresso. At least a double-shot, sometimes four. If espresso isn’t available, I like good bold black coffee. No cream, no sugar. Nothing in the way of my taste buds and the coffee. That’s just how I roll.
So when I saw this, I immediately fell in love. And based on the hands-on experience, it looks like it’s for real.
The TWIST is smart, simple, handsome, user-friendly, easy-to-clean, lightweight and will create a solid cup of espresso wherever you roam. Outside, it’s elegant black and metal aesthetic resembles a fancy, modern juicer (courtesy of elemental8). Inside, the TWIST resembles a German watch: a series of beautiful metal cogs and levers that look vaguely steampunkish*.
And he said the espresso it made was great!
So for $129 I’m sold. Most good home espresso makers cost anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars. A portable one for $129? I can’t wait until it’s released this fall because for my household it’s good-bye black coffee, hello espresso.
