Wacaco is the undisputed king of portable espresso. It practically defined the space and has outshone and outlasted many rival brands. It has released many portable espresso makers, each fitting a particular user need and all of high quality. Nevertheless, every previous Wacaco espresso maker relied on the user providing the hot water. With the release of the Pixapresso, all that changes. This is a Wacaco espresso maker like nothing you've seen before.
It's worth taking a moment to reflect on what a technological accomplishment the Pixapresso is. Not only is this a hand-held device that can pull a tasty shot (after all, Wacaco has given us many of those already); this is a device that can heat up its own water to the ideal brewing temperature, from cold, using a built-in, high-capacity, USB-C rechargeable battery. That means no separate thermos is required. You can literally pull a shot at the top of a mountain without any power or previously heated water.
