Man I’d love to get this semi-affordably in Europe. Such a cool product. I use a Cafelat Robot for my morning brew and it’s consistently the highlight of my day. Manual espresso rules

Flair Espresso has a similar thing and it looks like they have European distributors.

I have the Original and have had it since it was the only thing they made. It's picky but if you get it all dialed right it makes great espresso.

The prices on some of the hand pumps are wild to me. I feel like if I'm going to go the hand pump route, then I shouldn't be paying the same price as a Gaggia Classic Pro.

Easy fix, just price out an Olympia Mina and then the other hand pumps will seem cheap by comparison.
