Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine

General

Nowxpresso is the Ultimate Portable Espresso Machine because it is the world’s first cordless and automatic portable espresso machine that is able to make coffee for you at the push of a button.

The Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine has many world’s first features. It is cordless because of its removable lithium battery. It has one button for all functions. You can sit back and relax as it pumps and pours your coffee for you straight into its detachable drinking cup. And most of all it can boil your water to ensure you can have a fresh hot espresso even in the most remote places.

The Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine is the key to experiencing coffee freedom. Now you can have a fresh extracted espresso with a thick rich crema made for you whenever you want it.

100 cups of coffee when directly pouring water (boiled or iced) and 3 cups of coffee when boiling water.

Yes and it makes incredible Iced Coffees in fact! The Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine has the ability to directly pour any temperature water from the Water Cavity without automatically altering the water temperature. Therefore, when using iced water the water will stay cold as it passes through the machine. Once you have inserted your genuine Nespresso® Capsule, L'OR Espresso Aluminium Capsule or SealPod reusable capsule, pour iced water into the Water Cavity and hold down the button for 5 seconds to instantly make an Iced Coffee.

Yes indeed. Once your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine has extracted your first espresso, unscrew the water lid to enter another 50ml of water (we recommend using boiled water), then hold the button down for another 5 seconds for the machine to automatically pour the remainder of your Lungo Espresso.

Yes indeed. The Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine has CE, FCC, SGS GS, ROHS, REACH and FDA international certifications. All plastic materials of the Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine in contact with coffee and water are BPA-free. 

Look over the ‘Operation Manual’ to further familiarise yourself with your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine. Secondly, follow the ‘MUST DO FOR FIRST USE’ card to correctly set up your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine to ensure you have the best first coffee experience. Lastly, once your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine is ready to make its first coffee, we recommend you follow the ‘Quick Start Guide’ instructions to do so correctly and effortlessly.

If your new Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine has a new materials scent/ plastic smell to you, to eliminate this we recommend squeezing fresh lemon juice inside the Water Cavity, Drinking Cup, Air Vent Water Lid and Capsule Cap then letting it soak in for at least 15 minutes before washing the lemon juice off with boiled water. 

Watch: MUST DO for first use

No, we do not recommend using plastic capsules. We recommend using original Moccona® Capsules and L'OR Espresso Aluminium Capsules.

Compatibility

We wanted the Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine to work perfectly with a capsule that is simple, consistent, convenient, recyclable, has a range of flavours and is available worldwide

Yes. You can use your own espresso grind by using SealPod reusable stainless steel capsules. You can order SealPod capsules here or on Amazon. You need to remove the silicon ring around the SealPod capsule because the NOWpresso Portable Espresso Machine already has an inbuilt silicon ring for the capsule. You also do not need to use the Sticker Lids. You can just fill the SealPod Reusable Capsule with your Stovetop Espresso Grind and place the SealPod Capsule into the Capsule Insert and seal it closed with the Capsule Cap.

Watch: HOW TO use a SealPod Capsule with Nowxpresso

The Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine is only compatible with genuine original Moccona® Capsules and L'OR® Espresso Aluminium Capsules. We strongly recommend that you DO NOT attempt to use other capsules (even if they claim to be compatible Moccona® and L'OR capsules) with the NowPresso Portable Espresso Machine because it will damage the machine and void your warranty.

Yes you can ONLY use water with the Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine. If you choose to use another liquid substance instead of water you will do so at your own risk, we will not be responsible for any damage caused and your warranty will be void.

Operation

First, securely seal the Capsule Cap for the genuine Moccona® Capsule, L'OR® Espresso Aluminium Capsule or SealPod reusable capsule to receive the required pressure to extract an incredible coffee.

Second, pour in the correct amount of water, make sure it goes to the Max Level Mark. It is okay if it goes a tiny bit over the Max Level Mark but do not over fill or overflow the Water Cavity.

Third, use your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine on a smooth stable surface especially when it is pumping and pouring your coffee. If you do not have access to a smooth stable surface we recommend you keep your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine as stable and straight as possible by holding the centre of it to ensure the water can effortlessly pass through the Water Cavity to directly pump through the genuine Moccona® Capsule, L'OR® Espresso Aluminium Capsule or SealPod reusable capsule to extract your espresso.

Lastly, when your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine has finished making your coffee, wait a few seconds before unscrewing the Drinking Cup to allow the Drinking Cup to catch any last drops of coffee from the Capsule Cap.

You may find that your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine may slightly move or slowly rotate when pumping your coffee. This is due to the vibrations the pump may cause on the surface you are using. When using an unstable or slippery surface we recommend you hold the machine around the centre of its body to keep it straight and stable for when it is pumping and pouring your coffee.

When not making a coffee, we strongly advise against transporting your NOWpresso Portable Espresso Machine with water stored inside the Water Cavity. The Water Lid has air vent holes so spillage can occur out of the holes.

It is possible to move your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine when it is in operation, however we strongly recommend keeping your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine stationary, stable and upright whilst it’s extracting your espresso. If you do choose to move your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine whilst in operation, we strongly advise you to hold it securely upright. This is to ensure the water can easily travel straight through the pump and also create you an awesome crema.

After 3 minutes your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine will realize that no water is inside the Water Cavity and will switch itself off. Please note the button was designed to prevent the machine from accidentally turning on.

Cleaning and Maintenance

First, enjoy your coffee! After your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine has cooled down, we recommend you dispose of your genuine Moccona® Capsule, L'OR® Espresso Aluminium Capsule or coffee grind from your SealPod and capsule sticker lid responsibly. If you would like to personally recycle your Moccona® Capsule and L'OR® Espresso Aluminium Capsule you can do so by using the Nowxpresso EcoPress.

When removing the capsule please note residual water may come out. This is normal and can be simply wiped dry. DO NOT stick your fingers into the Capsule Insert. Then wipe away any residual coffee and/or water from the Drinking Cup and Capsule Cap as well as emptying out any residual water that may be left in the Water Cavity.

There are 3 ways you can clean your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine. NEVER put the main body of the Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine in the dishwasher machine or rinse with water.

Option 1: Wipe dry with cloth
After using your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine and once it has cooled down, use a dry cloth to wipe away any residual coffee or water from the Drinking Cup, Capsule Cap and Air Vent Water Lid.

Option 2: Rinse with water
After using your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine and once it has cooled down, ONLY rinse with water the Drinking Cup, Capsule Cap and Air Vent Water Lid.

Option 3: Dishwasher machine
After using your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine and once it has cooled down, ONLY put in the dishwasher machine the Drinking Cup, Capsule Cap and Air Vent Water Lid.


To clean the Capsule Insert, pour water into the Water Cavity without a capsule inserted and hold down the button for at least 5 seconds so the pump can draw the clean water from the Water Cavity into the Capsule Insert to wash off any residual coffee. Then wipe the Capsule Insert dry with a cloth or dry it in the air. (DO NOT stick your fingers into the Capsule Insert). We recommend this procedure only when needed.

Watch: HOW TO Clean NOWpresso Portable Espresso Machine

No, because the Water Cavity is exposed and has a small filter to ensure only clean water will have access to the pump.

However, we do strongly recommend wiping away any residual water from the Water Cavity after use if you are not going to use your Nowxpresso Portable Espresso Machine again for a long period of time. If you do keep residual water in the Water Cavity for a long period of time please know it may build up and begin scaling however you can remove this by washing out your Water Cavity with boiled water.

We recommend squeezing fresh lemon juice inside the Water Cavity, Drinking Cup, Air Vent Water Lid and Capsule Cap then letting it soak in for at least 15 minutes before washing the lemon juice off with boiled water.
