Interesting. Something smaller than portaspresso and espressoforge . But uses air cartridge which can go up to 15 bars and lacks a pressure gauge. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/54 ... escription

I think as a product, it's dead in the water. The Kickstarter campaign failed, they have no stock on hand to ship and they haven't updated their Facebook page in 2 years. I personally wouldn't take the risk even if I was in the market for such a contraption.

Reminiscent of the Mypressi Twist. Which also relied on compressed chargers. I still have my Twist v2 and it still works. Although, sadly, the company is no more. Gone the way of the dodo bird.

Never saw this one, interesting that they claim to turn the conventional theory of espresso on its head by using a declining pressure profile... just like a spring lever.

My Twist is still working, though it gets only occasional use.
