It actually says right in the video "pump approximately 8 times for ... (I think he says "full"?)... quality espresso extraction"
(am i pumping with hot water in the open reservoir right under my hand? trying to be fast before the water cools too much? or pump it first then pour the water? or like it shows in one of the corners of the prototypes shots in the video at every stroke of the pump I suck water in and squeeze trough the coffee?... )

But the point of a good coffee is not just to deliver 9 bars on top of the puck... otherwise any machine would just give a perfect espresso...

Ah who knows maybe it works...

I still prefer a simple moka for camping
(but if they send me one for free Im happy to try it out )

I wouldn't back based on the comments about their previous KS projects.

In these small devices temperature attainment/stability is often the issue, followed by longevity of seals.

I'm always looking for something small that improves upon the Handpresso Intenso. I don't think that this is it.

(EspressoForge/Robot/Portaspresso/Flair are great devices, but are larger/heavier.)

Bingo my Elektra Mcal putting out 5-7 bars makes amazing shots...only when the temperature is in a relatively tight range

But there is a big sticker on the display at Walmart for De'longhis that says it hits 9 bar!

looks like too much hassle for just 14gr of "espresso"

lol

Repeatedly says and even posts "eXpresso" vs espresso. Still funny mind you but....

Some people have too much time in their hands.
is there a busted video for the busted video?
its not "e-X-presso"... (not even the forum lets me write the whole word with an X)

LOL, pretty much. This video is like the dumb man's Hoffman. Here's an idea, rather than screwing around with syringes get the actual product and test it.
