Presso Child’s Play

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010

Using the Presso is a bit like having a play with a new toy. The only thing different is that unlike typical new “plastic” toys once they break you have to chuck them in the bin. Not the Presso: if you happen to break it or in time wear out one of the parts you can easily repair it with replacement parts. Pictured below is Moe (9 years old) pulling a lovely shot for her Dad with their presso (photo by Jon Sturge).

Please don’t violate child labour laws and if you are going to teach your children how to use the presso be sure to supervise them so they don’t get hurt and to make sure you get a great tasting result.

Holstee-Presso Review

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

A few months ago we got an email from an exciting start up venture in the United States. Our mate Jason who helped us get Presso off the ground in Australia has taken on distributing and promoting Presso in the States with his partner Amanda are doing a great job juicing up Coffee enthusiasts in America. Love the simplicity of this presso demo video.

10 steps to making two flat whites in under 10 minutes

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

Morning Coffee Ritual

When I wake up in the morning I have a one track mind. Coffee.

Our routine is has pretty much been perfected with the Presso and in less then 10 minutes
I have made two flat whites and sitting in front of my computer checking emails–the second track on my mind in the morning.

Here is my procedure.

Step 1: fill kettle quarter full (no point boiling too much water)
Step 2: turn on kettle.
Step 3: fill two mugs half full of milk (in our case farm fresh milk from our own cows)
Step 4: put mugs in microwave (1 minute per mug works for us) so 2 minutes for 2
Step 5: rinse presso and portafilter with hot water: this cleans it from the last use and warms it up for its pending morning press
Step 6: grind Green Cauldron coffee and tamp
Step 7: insert portafilter into the presso
Step 8: take mug and milk out of microwave and froth
Step 9: put mug under presso and press arms down (I do it twice-nice and slow on the first press and then one more to finish off with some crema)
Step 10: repeat step 9 for second flat white
