How does a portable coffee machine work?
In addition to its compact and nomadic side, the portable coffee machine is very easy to use. If you have chosen an electric model, all you have to do is plug the machine into the cigarette lighter of your vehicle. Then pour in the water and then add the coffee. Most of the time, these devices are designed to accommodate ESE pods, that is to say flexible pods like the Senseo. More and more models can accommodate ground coffee, even Nespresso pods. Inform yourself well before your purchase. Once all the essential elements are in place, you just have to wait for the water to heat up before starting the extraction. It usually takes 4 to 5 minutes for your cup to be ready. If your portable coffee maker is manual, you must fill it with already hot water.You will then need to pump to build up the pressure and the coffee is done. These models often work with batteries because they are not connected to the mains.
What are the advantages ?
If portable coffee machines are becoming more and more popular, it is because they have so many advantages. These devices are the alternative to the thermos of coffee which ends up being a little spent and cooling down. With a nomadic coffee machine, you can enjoy a good, fresh coffee from anywhere, as if you were in a cafe. In the heart of nature, on the road, on vacation, on a campsite… There are no limits. Another point, since it is you who choose the pod, or the quantity and the type of ground coffee according to the machines, it is you who decide the taste and the intensity of your coffee. You can prepare it just the way you like it to enjoy every sip. Depending on the model, you can also benefit from very practical accessories for even more pleasant use,with for example cups, supports, or transport bags. This will give you even more fun using your portable coffee machine, and it will not be damaged. Finally, the maintenance of this type of device is both quick and easy. You just have to run a little water through the spout and the pod holder, or ground coffee receptacle, and you're done.
