Does the Pipamoka heat up the water?
No. The Pipamoka requires hot water to be added to the water chamber before use.
Does the Pipamoka require filter papers?
No. The Pipamoka’s filter basket has a built in micro-filter mesh, so paper filters are not needed.
What coffee do I use in the Pipamoka?
The Pipamoka is specifically designed to be used with ground coffee, which is placed into the provided filter basket. Coffee pods or capsules cannot be used in the Pipamoka.
How is the Pipamoka different from the Minipresso and Nanopresso?
The Pipamoka is a vacuum sealed, portable, total immersion brewer; while the Minipresso and Nanopresso are portable espresso machines. The brew you get from a Pipamoka will be an excessively smooth longer coffee, or a strong short coffee. Whereas, you’ll get an authentic espresso from the Minipresso and Nanopresso, with a nice thick, golden crema.
Does the Pipamoka come with a protective case?
The Pipmoka comes standard with a soft carry bag. Alternatively, a hard case can be purchased separately, to offer further protection to your unit.
I'm having trouble turning the ring on my Pipamoka. What am I doing wrong?
Your coffee has been ground too fine. The Pipamoka requires coffee that is a medium/medium- course grind. Follow the link below to access a how-to video and also the Pipamoka user manual.
