#Nomad coffee portable

After weeks of pumping out my morning espresso shot, I can attest to the high highs and the low lows of using the Nomad. It claims to pull the perfect espresso shot every time, complete with the light crema and complex flavor profile traditionally only achievable by larger, high-end espresso makers.ДЄccording to the user manual, all you need is hot water and espresso ground coffee to make a delicious single shot of espresso anywhere in the world. Although itвЂ™s not the cheapest option, at $250 the Nomad is more affordable than its high-end Italian siblings.

IвЂ™m referring to the Nomad espresso maker (opens in a new tab), a portable coffee machine powered by a hand-pumped lever. No, IвЂ™m not talking about the widely available, and relatively simple to use Cafetera.

I was shocked, then, to learn that there may be another way to get the espresso of my dreams in the comfort of my own home. While I love the idea of pulling a fresh shot of frothy, rich espresso for myself to greet the day every morning, I am also, as they say, вЂњballinвЂ™ on a budget.вЂќ IвЂ™ve refrained from sinking thousands into a sleek, beautifully designed espresso maker, deferring my dream until I marry rich and/or accidentally get drunk on a Sunday and lose all impulse control. Unfortunately, IвЂ™ve run into two very specific roadblocks: Espresso makers (opens in a new tab) are typically quite large, and the price tag is generally an intimidatingly large percentage of my rent. As someone who really leans into their pretentiousness, IвЂ™ve been keen to buy an espresso maker for my kitchen for a while now.
