Detailed Commentary
I purchased one of these as an emergency camping brewing method. Used in conjunction with a Salter Hand Cranked Grinder it proved a very effective tool. It is compact enough to fit in a rucksack and is very easy to clean with cold camp water. It took some getting used to with grind and quantity, however the results were very good. In the cup it is able to bring out some of the more subtle flavours and produces quite a clean cup.
It is great for americano type drinks as it gives a longer shot that can be topped up with hot water.
I rarelyuse it at home and generally keep it for camping. However when I want to explore an interesting coffee it proves a useful tasting tool.
Buying Experience
It was bought by a friend Cakeboy through Hasbean. It was sent to a Hotel and this wasn't a hassle for the vendor. As always Steve was prompt and efficient.
