Let’s talk about espresso! Anything from favorite machines, opinions on the best beans, who sells the most overpriced tools, you get the idea.

I love espresso and coffee in almost any form.. and besides brewing at home I kind of love the idea of being able to brew it on the road.. literally.

The bripe looks primitive but appealing due to its simplicity and portability. A hipster outdoorsy kind of thing. That’s not my vibe really but I do spend a fair bit of time in the countryside (I’m in Finland) and it’d suit both the climate here and the remoteness.

Has anyone used it before? Any ideas as to the quality or even how gritty the brew would be?

I haven't, however I have watched this video by James Hoffman on it and it was good.

Ha, I hadn’t seen that. Definitely agree that it’s absurd. The time to heat is a bit off putting due to the butane being a limitation.. but maybe it’s reasonable if you’re not using it all of the time.
