Presso Espresso Coffee Maker

The Presso Espresso Coffee Maker is a manual, non-electric espresso machine that produces the pressure required to make delicious cafe-style coffee in your own home.

The operation of the Presso is very straight forward. You simply fill the steel filter with the coffee of your choice, attach it to the Presso via the chrome holder and pour boiling water into the heat proof cylinder at the top.

Then you lift the lever arms, place your coffee cup into position and lower the arms. This action traps the air and forces the water through the coffee at high pressure to deliver a perfect cafe quality brew into your waiting cup. The whole process takes seconds!

The Presso Coffee Maker qualifies for free delivery to UK customers.

The Presso is more energy efficient than standard espresso makers which are regularly left switched on or in ’standby’ mode. This is particularly the case in office environments or areas shared by more than one user.

Unlike standard electrical espresso machines, the Presso is operated manually so it requires as much energy as it takes to boil a cup of water.

The Presso is built to last from polished aluminium, a material which can be recycled at the end of its lifespan.
