Flair Classic Manual Espresso Maker

Handcrafted Espresso, Anywhere. No Plugs. Just Precision.

The Flair Classic is the original manual espresso maker that revolutionised home espresso in 2016—and it’s still setting the bar. A fully manual, lever-driven machine, the Flair Classic delivers between 6–9 BAR pressure, exactly what’s needed for true café-quality espresso—no electricity required.

With its compact, human-powered design and durable build, the Flair Classic is made for espresso lovers who appreciate hands-on brewing and beautiful engineering.

Key Features

• True Café-Quality Espresso
  Brew rich, crema-topped shots using up to 18g of coffee and 60ml of hot water to yield up to 45ml of espresso. A high-quality burr grinder is essential for best results.

  100% human-powered and beautifully minimalist, the Flair Classic fits seamlessly into any coffee corner—at home or on the go.

• 2-in-1 Bottomless Portafilter
  Brew your way with the included 2-in-1 portafilter—use it bottomless for maximum clarity and feedback, or spouted for a more traditional extraction.
