Travel Kit: Flair 2GO

The pressure gauge on this thing is oddly satisfying to watch as you pull a shot, and the bottomless portafilter lets you see exactly what's happening. Fits my carry-on perfectly with the collapsible body, so I've been using it on every trip since it arrived.

The collapsible body is a game-changer—it fits right in the carry case with room to spare for my grinder. Pulled two shots on a camping trip and the pressure gauge made dialing in effortless, though it’s a bit of a workout to press.

The pressure gauge on the bottomless portafilter makes dialing in shots actually intuitive, and the whole thing collapses into the case for my carry-on without hogging space. I pulled two solid espressos at my hotel desk this morning, which is something I never thought I’d do away from home.
