Gail is showing true courage in making those coffees with bright white shirt on.
ohhh your sure a Joker Toker :DDDD
In my experience, be extremely careful with the minipresso when it comes to 'tamping'. A very light 'leveling' is about all you want to do. Any firm tamp will likely cause you to blow out the seals in the unit. If pumping puts up a firm resistance...by all means, DO NOT FORCE.
Very true
@@SeattleCoffeeGear Thanks for this detail.
Yep. In fact, there was evidence of some water pushing out through the seam there as she did this..
I hard tamp my nanopresso and it comes out wonderfully with golden colored crema. The catch is that I have to have the grinds perfectly and the only way for me to do that without buying a grinder is the Lavazza pre-ground canned version. If it's too fine it'll get stuck
@@terran236 The nanopresso can handle up to 18 bar, this minipresso only 8. The easily leaking hot water and people easily (and/or mean to) tamper hard is the reason why they made the nanopresso stand 18 bar ;-)
Man, that Minipresso shot looks great, but holy cow, that process looks fiddly.
It's a dance, but gets easier with use :D
the pressing always freaks me out......don't break the cup don't break the cup don't break the cup!!!!!
I have broken several cups with my Aeropress, especially when pressing down into the funnel.
In real life I have a stainless steel insulated mug by Miir and by other brands. Wouldn't be good for visual demo though.
how do you even break a cup with an aeropress???
wt
I've used many cheap cups and they're alright
grind coarser maybe?
I have both machines and like them both. I use the Minipresso more often because I prefer espresso, and find the shot stays hotter when I preheat the tank and grouphead with a little boiling water before making a shot. Thanks for doing this! How about comparing Handpresso with Minipresso? More similar machines!
hows the cleaning? I travel regularly but thats the main thing thats kept me away from purchasing one
my recipe for making aeropress which i found to taste just like a shot from a machine is 14 grams of coffee fine esspresso grind and 28 grams of water just off a boil in the aeropress use it the non inverted way paper filter in the basket and one on top of the grinds both moistend water on top and press hard and fast and you should get a good crema
Nope. You need pressure.
EmptySkybox 11/23s of a cubit of coffee and 37 fathoms of water
Sorry only joking 😀
I use both the AeroPress and the Minipresso. Today's coffee with AeroPress had crema and was delightful. In the new year I've not used the Minipresso because I have greater consistency with the AeroPress and I actually think closer to espresso. May havre to pull out the Minipresso to do a cup to cup comparison.
Totally apples and oranges ... but, I'm currently travelling with my Aeropress and using the metal filter. That makes a huge difference to the body and flavour of the coffee especially when using freshly roasted and ground beans. Sure, it's still not espresso, but it has more of that happy making complexity, that gets closer to a morning shot made with fresh beans and a 15 Bar pressure machine. I think Joe referred to them as oils and flavonoids. I'll never bother with the paper filters again.
"I'm going to take my submarine and go take off..." Does everyone just love Gail, or what? :)
Imagine your mug flip over while pressing aeropress
This is what is known as a "nightmare" - and I live that nightmare every time I use my aeropress.
I can't recommend the AeroPress enough. I bought one before I bought my Barista Express, and I love it. I use my Express pretty much exclusively now, but the AeroPress comes with me when I travel. I love both of them.
I'd still take the aeroperss anyday, way more versatile, can make sooooo much different coffee with it, it can basically get me any coffee whatever mood I am in
As Americans we catch flack for our big mugs of coffee vs. demitasse cups the Europeans prefer. However, a big ol' American cup of joe is like a warm hug in the morning.
Ok i'll buy that submarine one... thank you for the review
markyhabs there two models of the mini presso. The one Gail is demonstrating with will not allocate a nespresso style coffee pod but only your own pre grounds their are two models one that allows for pods and one that allows for your own pre ground coffee neither will accommodate each other unfortunately.
I had both and they both produced good results. The Minipresso doesn't need paper filters but can occasionally leak. I made the mistake of storing it without making sure it was completely dry, went to use it a week later and it was moldy. With that said, I will likely buy another one.
The Aeropress has been my go to if I'm only making coffee for one. Really easy to use and produces a good cup of coffee. It really depends on what kind of drink you want.
Perfectly said :D
Will you do review on new model nanopresso 16-bar espresso maker ?
how about a fellow prismo attachment review?
There are methods for making a sort of espresso shot with the aeropress that was not demonstrated here. I feel like that's what people were asking for.
There was too much water with the aeropress not well made at all this was a biased review.

Thanks for watching all our videos folks! You're the best!
@4:44 by using Minipresso we get two benefits:
1. we get the delicious espresso
2. we build the muscles
Nice review, I think I'm gonna stick with my Aeropress
From what I've found out Minipresso employs some tech similar to pressurized basket/portafilter. Does crema look and shot taste proves or disproves it?
BTW why haven't you compare Aeropress brewed espresso (that is much more comparable and not so hard to do - Google for it) to Minipresso espresso? It's a pity you cannot compare them to Handpresso as well since you utilize stuff you sell only.
Very illustrative and god to know the differences...love your show. Cheers from Mexico that’s where I watch your reviews....thanks
But how was the extraction? Over/under, Bitter/sour?
You should have dilute the espresso into americano afterward- this way the taste comparison ( americano vs aeropress coffee) would be much more like comparing apples to apples.
Really just demonstrating the use of these devices, and less about the coffee made :D
maybe change the video title then
Using the Aeropress when traveling, i was eager to see if a Minipresso are an upgrade or downgrade. Like the thought of getting rid of the paperfilters. So i waited, and i waited, and i waited; eager to see how to clean them. Easy cleaning, like the Aeropress offer, is crucial on the road...
I see it now........... The Minipresso Portable Espresso Machine workout video coming to market. Though a 30 minute workout might push your caffee level though the roof.
haha
but then where does the pre-workout coffee come from? ahhhhhhhhhhh.... haha
good one. you should make the video.... to an epic movie trailer-esque parody
Very nice video, thanks!
according to the website of minipresso they are offering a bigger size water container I do not remember how big it is I guess you should probably mention that if you decide to review this machine again as some people will be interested in getting more than just one shot of coffee
Must be huge thermal loss from the AeroPress given the hot water is having to heat coffee, mug and AeRoPress parts - definitely going to end up cooler than French Press
And now compare with the Aeropress with the Prismo attachment from Stagg?
If you add the Fellow Prismo to the AeroPress, you can get closer to an espresso, but it takes a little playing with to get it right.
Hi Gail! Would you ever consider reviewing the Nanopresso? It's supposed to have a higher pressure range than the Minipresso. Thanks for your great reviews!
I really trust your previews as it always been my guid to the world of coffee. Please can you review the new Smeg grinder and milk frother. You will be among the first as I don’t see anyone actually did any so farc than you and keep up the excellent job.
This was great and extremely informative. Thank you so much!
Would you be able to do a review on the newer version (Nanopresso)?
Could you please do Nanopresso vs. Fellow Prismo comparison? Thank for another great video ❤️
that was a shockingly poor demonstration of the minipresso. It looked like it was packed far too firmly, making it clearly too hard to pump. Usually you preheat the chamber to get close to the right temperature at pass through, pump then pause for 5-10secs once teh first drips appear so the coffee can bloom, before pumping through. When done properly it makes a surprisingly full bodied coffee. I own this and a full esspresso machine, and to be honest often feel I get a better coffee from the minipresso, largely due to the 'feel' you have when pumping. It gives such good control, though it does usually take me 3-4 cups in a new batch of coffee to get the grind and the tamp right. P.s just to say I also own the Aeropress, which I still use for it's shear simplicity and speed, though again some quick research on the web shows ways to make a much much better coffee using one than was shown here. (using the metal ultra fine filter for a start)
Hello i just bought the wilfa WSCG-2 and a aeropress and wonder how coarse/fine should i grind the beans for my aeropress?
I would like maximum sweetness and fruityness and less of the roast dark tastes.
Any tips to achieve this result? Less or longer time before i press?
Coarser or finer grind?
Hoter or colder water?
I want the maximum taste of the fruity sweet delicous coffe that i get when visiting places with good baristas.
Is there a comparison video anywhere between the Aeropress and the Oomph. The Aero has been my go-to since 2014, but I'm slightly curious about the latter notwithstanding the garish lettering down the side of it.
What if the cup breaks? I don't trust that method
Have you tested any of the battery operated portable machines
after some time which one do you use the most, and I is easier to clean?
really love this channel.
Take a shot (of espresso) every time she says “hot black strong coffee”
Phillips Senseo coffee machine does a good job of combining Espresso strength with good crema topping with americano quantity. Café Rene Cremé Dark Roast Coffee bags are recommended much nicer flavour than the standard Senseo bags for the machine.
About the Breville BES870Xl how long do you wait from steaming to pulling a shot? And should I wait to use the hot water after pulling a shot.
You did good cup did not tip over or break. First one not for me. Where is the flair maker ?
Has she tried the method on the aeropress tamped and two filters... A lot of pressure is needed for that
How does all that downward pressure not break the cup?
What a out the espresso attachment for the areopress? That would be more apples to apples.
Thanks
Excellent vid. Thank you very much!
Shouldn't you have made the aeropress at 17g coffee and water at the 1.5 mark to make it fair?
In the manual they write that you must not tamp it, and on amazon they write that tamping it will create too much pressure that will break the device. you seem to be tamping it. now I don't own the device yet - does tamping produce better espresso with it despite the danger?
The manual suggests not to tamp hard (as you would with a normal espresso machine). But a light press to level the grounds is key to an even extraction.
why not make it like an espresso shot from the aeropress? there are tutorials how to do that.
I think this comparison could have been better had you taken two devices that made espresso then compared the two. Also swishing your mouth out with water in between taste otherwise your palate is still tasting the first coffee.
Review Nanopresso please.
if youre seriously considering buying one, go for the lux
Very nice. Thank you!
Gail needs to learn the pressing downward with the forearm is a lot easier than putting inordinate strain on her wrist ligaments.
There’s also a Nespresso version of this MiniPresso. It is a lot easier to use on the go.
Am I the only one that wants to combine the two? Call it the 'maxipresso', where it makes strong hot longblack-sized espresso-strength coffee with crema to boot. The crema proportion would make it look similar to a Guinness stout lol.
haha love the idea!
Currently running through the Aeropress with SO Guatemala, locally roasted - a fine self-present for my 30th birthday! Hoping to upgrade to the Barista Express soon.
yeah they both look like good products
Try staresso then 😊
2 products aren't same position. Hot water and ratio maybe same but pressure for extracted is so diffrrent. Aeropress do as americano but another one do as espresso shot.
can you compare chemex with v60 and any other manual coffee maker and which one will give the best result
Each will result in a different brew :D
+Seattle Coffee Gear what I am trying to say there are lots of manual coffee Brewers that look like cone shape which will all result in flavor similar to American coffee there are lots of different brands and some are made of Stanles steel and some made of ceramic and some made of glass which will result in different flavor I more interested to know which one will give the full body flavor which one will provide the strongest flavor
2 different devices that will give different results areaopress will give flavor similar to filter coffee minipresso will give something similar to esspresso but I have seen some video some how it was giving the cream color but I guess the minipresso does not give a full flavor espresso cause the pump power is very low
BLUB BBLA BLAA, it's bubbling up
You need a package deal for home comparisons
great idea!!
i want to get the nanopresso but it's all plastic ewww. can some manufacturer make something similar with stainless steel??????
Coffee and USA is that not an oxymoron ?
iam gonna buy minipresso and i already have aeropress and french press and automatic coffee machine
HACKED BY POWER HBP how do you like it with minipresso? :)
Lmao, if there was a Bob Ross in coffee this would be him hahaha the way she talks, do calmly whilst making the coffee....
Also, the way ur pressing that aeropress with 2 hands, not holding the bottom as well, just gives me creeps and puts me off from buying that. That just looks like a mess waiting to happen....
Aeropress wins for me
swings & roundabouts,,,
I always find a nice camel crema with one scoop in my aeropress. Because I don't stop until I have squeezed all the water and air out.
4:44 Bye Bye gym.
The reason she had such a hard time pressing the aeropress is because she left an airspace above the grounds and water. Fill right to top.
The Aeropress inventor was pretty clear that he intended the plunger to push air, the pushed (compressed) air to push the coffee through the grounds and coffee.
I used to fill right to the top. Worked OK, but I went through a plunger seal every 200 presses or so - and if one was failing, I got covered with coffee (so much for *that* work shirt).
I'm back to leaving an air gap. Don't notice any difference in pressure required. I use a short brew / fine ground, so it's pretty stiff either way.
This is not how you make coffee with an aeropress. Incredible that this"expert" is so wrong. Aeropress is designed to make espresso shots ... so you fill it with just enough water for the shots you want. The side of the tube has clear markings and it's explained in the instructions. If she'd done it properly she could have compared two espresso shots.
