Faced with a week away from my espresso machine, I've just bought a Wacaco Picopresso. For anyone wondering it makes an excellent double espresso.

Just as Wacaco suggest, it does need a very fine grind, you need a decent grinder to get good results from the Picopresso. I tried it with some pre-ground Lavazza I had and the results were uninspiring. Lavazza tends to be quite finely ground too.

I'm off for another week away soon. This time I'll be flying out of the country (provided easyjet get their act together). I'll be limited on weight and space. I'm happy taking the picopresso, but would rather avoid taking grinder and beans too.

Has anyone tried replacing the picopresso's single walled basket with a double walled basket more suited to shop ground espresso?
