Remember the days when a good espresso was a luxury reserved for a café or your home kitchen? Thanks to a new wave of portable brewing tech, those days are long gone. Meet the Pixapresso, Wacaco's latest game-changer that puts true espresso power directly in your hands, no matter where you are.
The Pixapresso isn't just another coffee maker; it's a revolutionary leap in portable brewing. Unlike its manual-pump predecessors, this is a fully electric and self-heating machine that takes the effort out of your morning ritual, transforming any location—from a remote campsite to your office desk—into your own personal coffee bar.

What Makes the Pixapresso a Game-Changer?
1. Power and Portability in One Sleek Package
The most striking feature of the Pixapresso is its compact design and powerful battery. Weighing in at just over 750 grams, it's designed to be travel-friendly, fitting easily into your bag or backpack. You no longer need to rely on a bulky kitchen appliance to get a cafe-quality shot. With its built-in 3000mAh battery, you can brew up to five espressos from cold water on a single charge—or an incredible 200 shots if you’re using pre-heated water.
2. Self-Heating for True Independence
Forget the kettle. The Pixapresso features a smart, self-heating system that heats cold water to the perfect brewing temperature in about three minutes. This means you have a hot, delicious espresso ready with just the push of a button. The machine even offers three temperature settings (88°C, 92°C, and 96°C), allowing you to customise your brew to match different roast levels. Lower temperatures for dark roasts, higher for light roasts—you get to be the barista.
3. Dual-Brewing for Ultimate Flexibility
Whether you're a purist who prefers freshly ground beans or you value the convenience of capsules, the Pixapresso has you covered. It comes with interchangeable modules for both ground coffee and NS capsules, so you can switch between them effortlessly. This flexibility ensures you're never without a way to get your coffee fix.
4. Barista-Level Control at Your Fingertips
Despite its small size, the Pixapresso gives you surprisingly advanced control. A sleek, intuitive display allows you to adjust key settings like pre-infusion and shot volume (ristretto, espresso, double espresso, or lungo). Its 20-bar pump pressure is engineered to consistently deliver a rich, velvety espresso with that beautiful, thick crema coffee lovers crave.

Is the Pixapresso Right for You?
The Pixapresso is a perfect fit for a wide range of coffee drinkers.
The Traveller:Â For those who are always on the go, whether for work or adventure, this is the ultimate solution for avoiding bad hotel coffee.
The Office Worker:Â Say goodbye to the breakroom coffee pot. Brew your favourite blend right at your desk for a fresh and flavourful afternoon pick-me-up.
The Convenience Seeker:Â If you want great espresso without the manual labour of a hand-pump device or the bulk of a traditional machine, the Pixapresso is a clear winner.
While some coffee purists might argue that a manual machine offers slightly more control, the Pixapresso bridges the gap between convenience and quality like never before. It’s an easy-to-use, versatile, and powerful machine that delivers a satisfying cup of espresso every time.
So, if you're ready to take your coffee experience on the road, the Pixapresso is a fantastic way to bring the café to you.
