Earth Day bonappetit feature

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

The good press just keeps coming in for the presso for its energy saving performance and small counter top footprint. Bonappetit did a lovely feature with the presso for Earth Day.

“..This manually-operated espresso maker uses no electrical power, which means saved energy. Just fill the filter with coffee grinds and the chamber with hot water, and use good ol’ arm strength to press down on the arms of the machine.”

Visit Bonappetit for a read of the full feature.

Be Nice to Mother Earth on Mother’s Day

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

This Mother’s Day consider giving a gift that’s kind to mother nature.

Just like your Mum, there is only one mother nature and they both deserve special treatment. If your mother enjoys a nice cup of coffee why not serve her one made from the Presso powerless Espresso maker and let her know she can keep on making them without feeling the guilt of using up too much electricity. The presso is lever actioned and people powered. The only energy needed is what it takes to boil a bit of water.

Look Mum--made with my own two hands

To sweeten things up a bit more too we will be offering a free sugar spoon dispenser with every Mothers Day Presso purchase (and we are looking into chocolate covered coffee beans too). Go on presso and pour it on for Mum. She deserves it.

All-Clad Presso

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

Many years back All-Clad had a run at making pressos for Patrick Hunt in the US market. What looked like the perfect fit at the time ended and the business relationship was terminated.

What resulted was a boon for the serious coffee snobs who were the early adopters giving this great coffee making invention a go and then snapping up bargains when the discontinued product was heavily discounted. If you happened to have picked up or come across an all clad presso and the price is right don’t hesitate to take the plunge. It’s very likely that should your all clad version need parts immediately or in the future we could supply you with them.  If you have any question just email our presso spare parts and repair department  at info@presso.com
