Wacaco NanoPresso Vs MiniPresso: Significant Difference?

Hi all, not asking which one is better as I think NanoPresso is definitely better. But is it significant? Trying to save a bit by getting older version which is MiniPresso but I want to know if NanoPress is significantly better. Thanks.

  • NanoPresso is the newer model. It is significantly more compact too. You can also add a barista pack to it so you can do a double shot (about 16 grams of beans) which really helps getting your portable coffee close to a café taste.

    The black NanoPresso (not the coloured versions though) also comes with a cool carry case that everything fits nicely into.

    You can usually find the NanoPresso and barista kit sold as a double pack on sale around the traps.

    FYI - I've been using the NanoPresso for over 9 months now nearly every day to make at least two coffees a day, it is a good piece of kit (although not perfect) that stands up to being hammered.

    • Thanks @serpserpserp. Do you have any experience with MiniPresson to make comparison between the two?

  • Minipresso has 2 different models, one for grinds. One for pods.

    Nanopresso has an attachment (if purchased) that will allow you to do both. Also barista kit as serpserpserp mentioned.

    We have a Nanopresso for travelling.

    I have the nano with nespresso attachment.and.love it

    I bring it to the states in travel

  • Depends what you’re after really. I had the pod version of the minipresso, which I used whilst camping. I’ve upgraded to the nano with both adapters now, and love it. I still use pods whilst camping, but now use the barista kit whilst at work. As far as the pod versions go, they both seemed pretty similar to me - but I couldn’t comment on the minipresso that uses grounds.

    • Thanks. That's relevant feedback for me because either way I would use more pod than ground coffee.

      • Oh you didn't mention that in your post. If you are just going to use pods, get a minipresso.

        • Tendency will be using pods because it is properly ground and easy to store. My only issues with ground coffee is just that it will stay in the container for a while because I am the only one drinking coffee at home.

            If you store ground coffee in a air tight container it is the same as being in a air tight pod from nespresso. They are both 100% ground coffee, so the properties to them lasting the same amount of time is really on how air tight the storage medium is.

            Or you could store beans in a air tight container and grind for when you need them for even better freshness.

  • Are these things bit dated now I see this is old posts, anything new out or on deal Black Friday wife loves her coffee and was looking for something when she is out and about but easy to use.
    Don’t want to get something dated which maybe hard to get stuff for if needs.
    Thanks

    • I don't think it is dated … but Wacaco newest product is PicoPresso. I ordered parts for my nanopresso couple months ago direct from Wacaco. So parts are still available if that's what you meant.

      • Yes I seen that pico one but don’t see much deal on here about it or these past editions these days,
        I not had any of these and and was thinking of the nanopresso one which I think seems to be the better one
        When you said you ordered parts for yours are they common to break need parts or is this with long time use.
        This is for wife to I think that’s the idea to use coffee on the go.
        Do you know anything about the baristas kit and adaptor what are these for.

        I’m thinking of trying a store to price match but I don’t I know if good buy or not.

        • Happy with my nanopresso. I have both nespresso kit and barista kit. I prefer using ground coffee rather than nespresso capsule. Barista kit is to allow you to make double shot.

          I broke the cap by dropping it. At the same time as I ordered the cap replacement, I also ordered the seal which is wear and tear. Not that I have to replace it yet.

          • @peuwayaqdq: So worth getting the kit and adapter not sure if wife will use tne two things but least she have options. Don't know anything about product and she aint know she getting one but im sure she used it often

            • @bwatt72: I guess that will depend on whether she will need to make double shot and whether she would prefer nespresso capsule over ground coffee. You can of course get the kit later on.

              • @peuwayaqdq: Sorry if sounds silly what’s double shot twice as strong? Is this all the kit does? Yes she might use capsules what options does she get on them selected options or ones only done by maker of this device

                • @bwatt72: It's nespresso compatible capsules. Barista kit allows you to make more coffee (volume). It doesn't make it any stronger.
