Always on the go? Only want to drink a small cup of coffee?
Need a small travel-safe brewer for drip coffee? Want a paperless brewer?
Cafflano® Kompact is the perfect brewer for you!
No need to worry about paper filters or clunky and fragile coffee brewers. Cafflano® Kompact was designed to be an immersion coffee brewer for hot or cold. Cold coffee? That’s right! You can make cold brew on-the-go! Plus, assembling and clean-up is easy! This brewer requires very little effort and physical strength to extract a good cup of 5 ounce coffee.
Here are the specs:
Cafflano® Kompact is an advanced press-type (immersion) coffee brewer, which consists of a silicone Bellows Chamber (easy & efficient power transmitting press chamber) with a foldable Press Guide, ultra-fine etched stainless Micro Filter, and Airlock to keep it compact and to enable cold brew on-the-go. It's a simple pressing hot & cold brewer!

I would highly recommend using this type of brewer as this is very compact and comes with its own carrying case. Like any immersion brewer, we would suggest a coarse grind (CHECK & TEST) and steep for 3 minutes like the French Press recipe. But for this particular brewer, we found a finer (CHECK & TEST) grind worked better.
