It's such a pity to this idea

My first Handpresso has unfortunately given up the ghost after a little more than half a year (was leaking - the pressure is far too quickly escaped). Despite dual exchange the o-rings, and finally massive use of adhesives - it is and will leak.

After a few months of abstinence (and way too much ESE pads which I bought), I have again struggled through a Handpresso to order. In addition, I've even bought the Ristretto filter - the coffee is so much better because the water takes longer to flow through to the pad.

This morning on the train I want to make a coffee - there can be no pressure build up (the pump provides no resistance more). Overall, I've done with the new machine, perhaps 20 coffee.

I do not understand how such an expensive product can have such a lousy quality.

Now I have to return the machine to send back, and replace it with a new do (what to do with the many coffee otherwise).

Pity about this great idea
