Portable Espresso = Handpresso Max Effgen, July 5, 2009 I came across the Handpresso while shopping at the Seattle Flagship REI store. It is truly portable. Hand pump operated and uses the standard Easy Serving Espresso (E.S.E.) pod. This is a device that I would actually take into the backcountry. Pack-in/Pack-out does not work well with loose coffee grounds. Way too much mess. Pods are better in that situation. I have used them like tea bags on past backpacking trips and it works fairly well. The Handpresso is an ideal for a car camp or low key camp trip. Available @ Amazon, REI and other fine stores… weekend/coffee amazoncoffeehandpressoREIweekend/coffee
