I recently had a road trip to France and took my hot water in a flask to use with mine 👍🏼 **Q: Can you make any coffee with this or just espresso?** A: The machine pumps water through the coffee capsule, so it automatically makes an espresso, but you could make a longer drink out of it - up to you. Hope that helps. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Coffee on the go indeed! And with no mess... *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 1 April 2017* Initial feelings on unboxing were those of happiness. The wrong instructions were included - for the ground coffee and not for the NS model. But it's obvious from the products ergonomics where to put the Nespresso pod. The quality feels solid on the threads used to screw the unit together. I washed with hot water first and flushed with hot water to warm the unit. I think this is a good idea, as it would also be to warm the cup you are using too.I filled it up with water, added a Nespresso pod. Screwed together and started to pump. You need to do it pretty firmly, and after 4 pumps as the pressure in the unit builds, you could hear the pod inside engage with some very sharp teeth which puncture the pod. Don't touch the sharp teeth!!Strong coffee started to flow. I'd say after three pumps you could stop and you'd have a very intense ristretto style. I kept going as I like mine a bit weaker than that. Obviously the more you pour the weaker the coffee gets.I recommend to put about 10% more water than you would normally use into the reservoir so you have sufficient for your beverage. Just stop pumping when you're done. It was a little stiff to undo the pressure containing piece after I drank the coffee. No real mess. A rinse and it's ready to go again.Coffee was excellent. If I had to compare it to my dedicated Nespresso machine I'd say it's 95%... but extremely close. Maybe a tiny tiny bit thinner but really it could just be me. It's very good. Very convenient. And seems on initial experience, well built.Only word of warning: it involves pouring boiling water into a small reservoir, and then screwing parts together. So you need to be careful and have somewhere safe and stable to make the drink of you could quite easily knock it or spill water on your hand and hurt yourself.Really nice portable product. Intuitive enough to use without the instructions. Would make a great gift for a coffee lover if they already have a favourite Nespresso flavour, so they can replicate it on the move. It makes one coffee at a time and I'd say it takes two minutes or so from when your water is boiled to put it together and product the drink. So you probably wouldn't want to make a round of 10 cofffee with it. Really for a solo or couple of coffees on the go.Highly recommended ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 18 April 2026* Good quality item works really well if you follow directions, pods work differently depending on brand Starbucks pods work really well and costa need pushing in more firmly so trial and error. Easy to clean perfectly sized for travel. Would buy again ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great solution for espresso on the go without the fuss *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 19 December 2025* I am mightily impressed by this. I love coffee and making Moka at home and nespresso in the office. In general I don't like coffee shop espresso (which I drink). I don't put milk so acidic single origin coffee at fancy coffee shops doesn't appeal to me. I also don't want to be spending 3 pounds for coffee chain coffee.I have been eyeing a portable nespresso machine for the last two years. I was between this or one that is also heating the water and has a mechanised pump.I recently started a new position that at the kitchen I can't plug a machine. So I couldn't bring my nespresso machine. But there is a boiling water smart tap. When the Black Friday sale came, I thought it was time to get one.Here is my review after 3 weeks of use.The good* well made and designed* very light and small size easy to carry back and forth* very nice crema* very nice coffeeThe acceptable annoyances :* Doesn't do well with some pods (it doesn't puncture them well, and sometimes they come out crashed after pulling a shot)* sometimes water comes out without going through the capsule* hard to open the bottom after brewing (would have been better to have a slight grip on the top to help the twisting)The bad :Pricey when you can buy portable powered machines with the same price ## Frequently Bought Together - WACACO Minipresso NS2, Portable Espresso Maker Compatible with NS Original Capsules and Compatibles, Manually Operated, 18 Bar Small Handheld Coffee Machine for Travel, Camping - WACACO Minipresso NS2 Case, Protective Case with Capsule Box, Coaster, and Towel, Accessory for Minipresso NS2 Machine - Nespresso Variety Pack for OriginalLine, 50 Capsules --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/506481686-portable-coffee-makercompatible-with-nespresso-capsules-and-compatibles-manually-operated](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/506481686-portable-coffee-makercompatible-with-nespresso-capsules-and-compatibles-manually-operated) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-15*
