Prestina rethinks the classic French press-style brewer by cutting out the bit everyone’s least fond of: the plunger. Instead, the cup itself drives the press. Add ground coffee, pour hot water, give it a stir, wait a minute or so, then press – a built-in duck valve holds the water in during that steeping stage so the flavour actually develops before anything starts flowing through. A permanent stainless-steel filter means no paper filters to remember or run out of, and the coffee keeps more of its natural oils as a result, giving a fuller-bodied cup than you’d expect from something this simple. Everything nests together into one compact unit – brewer, cup and stirrer all in one – so it’s just as happy on an office desk as it is in a weekend bag.

The Wacaco story started with a bad cup of coffee. In fact, it started with a truly terrible cup of coffee.
Back in 2013, industrial design graduate Hugo Cailleton was staying in a mid-range hotel on a business trip. He ordered his customary morning espresso, but what arrived was abysmal. Disappointed by this experience, he decided there and then to create a portable espresso machine that would give people access to great coffee wherever they were – on the trail, at a campsite or in a city-centre hotel.
What followed is a classic tale of ingenuity, hard work and perseverance. Hugo built more than ten prototypes to test different mechanisms of coffee extraction. He sought feedback from friends, focus groups and industry professionals. The process took him back to the drawing board more than a few times. But twenty months after that fateful business trip, the Minipresso was born.
Today, the original Minipresso sits alongside the Nanopresso, Pipamoka and a range of accessories designed for travellers, commuters and outdoor lovers. They all put great coffee in your hands, giving you the ability to enjoy full-flavoured espresso or filter coffee anytime, anywhere.
