Good coffee starts way before the water hits the grounds, and the Exagrind is built to get the grind right without taking over your worktop. Its stainless-steel burrs are machine-milled into an aluminium unibody with minimal clearance, which means genuinely even grounds rather than the mixed bag you get from a bargain-bin grinder. Sixty clicks of adjustment take you from fine espresso through to coarser pour-over and cold brew settings, and the whole thing stands at just 14.3cm with a silicone sleeve for grip. When you’re done, the handle tucks into a space-saving carry position, shrinking it down further for a bag or a shelf. Compatible with the Picopresso and the rest of the Wacaco line-up, it earns its keep whichever machine you’re pairing it with.

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.
