Description
The Wacaco Picopresso is a robust and compact portable espresso maker, perfect for coffee enthusiasts who want to enjoy a rich double espresso with crema wherever they go.

Compact and Precise: The Perfect Portable Coffee Maker
With the Picopresso, Wacaco has reinvented the portable coffee maker by using a fairly large filter holder (52 mm), while offering a machine that fits in one hand! The objective? To create a mobile coffee maker capable of producing an intense double espresso with a nice crema. No need to sacrifice the quality of your coffee when you're away from home!
Despite its height of 10.5 cm and its weight of 350 g, the Wacaco Picopresso offers an intense experience thanks to its single filter (52 mm), designed to hold 18 g of coffee, ideal for a double espresso in the morning or for a boost in the morning!
And for the coffee nerds, Wacaco gives you the possibility to make a bottomless extraction. You can choose between a standard extraction with a spout or a bottomless filter.
With a simple filter, you will of course need a grind that is suitable for espresso: homogeneous and fine. You will therefore need to master the art of espresso making: finding the right grind, packing well, managing the extraction...
A Closer Look At the Picopresso's Features
Using the Wacaco Picopresso
The Wacaco Picopresso requires hot water (if you are hiking, bring your hot water in a good isothermal container), 16 to 18 gr of ground coffee (very fine and homogeneous).
Following the instructions (or see the brand's video below), prepare your ground coffee in the filter, tamp it down, screw the filter with the ground coffee under the Picopresso, add the hot water on top and put the lid on so as not to burn yourself, pump 8 times and wait 8 to 10 seconds for the pre-infusion, finish pumping to extract your double espresso.
It is recommended to pump with both hands for a good result.
For maintenance, simply rinse the elements (filter and spray head) with clean water. Try it with a cloth and let it dry in the open air.
Additional Advice
Carry an insulated container that will keep your water hot for the desired period.
For adventurers who want to grind their coffee beans on site, consider a manual espresso grinder.
The type of roast will affect the balance of flavours (bitterness, acidity, sweetness, etc.) and reveal the aromas of the terroir to a greater or lesser extent.
The more the coffee is roasted the more its colour will change (from light to dark). The darker the roast, the more the aromatic notes are lost in favour of the roasting notes.
All our coffees have been placed in a colorimeter by our experts in order to compare the roast intensity.
The aromatic groups describe the tasting notes of your cup (hazelnut, chocolate, peach, white flowers, etc.).
If you don't know what your coffee profile is yet, we advise you to start with the most appreciated aromatic groups: rich & sweet or woody.
Please Note: this is not a flavoured coffee but aromatic notes noticed upon tasting.
The dominant aromatic group represents the most perceptible notes and the secondary group, the more subtle notes present in the cup.
Traditional Coffees (classic and superior) are the most common in the various distribution channels.
Specialty Coffees (rated 80-100) are among the best coffees in the world and represent less than 10% of world production. These are flawless coffees that offer unique tasting notes from one terroir (or even plot) to another.
Attributed by “Q Graders”, a coffee's /100 score is determined by the quality of the beans and the result in the cup. It is advisable to progressively move towards coffees with higher scores.
