The concept is so simple yet seemed too good to be true. I doubted its ability to pull a craft quality espresso shot and was quickly proven wrong. No power needed, just 8 pumps of the hand to build pressure, hot enough water in one side, finely ground, tightly packed coffee in the other, and as you continue to pump your hand... beautiful, aromatic, creamy espresso results.
