“Amphibio Truline elevates the asymmetrical ski design to the next dimension by strategically locating materials over the edges of the skis. Structural material is placed over the full length of the inside ski edge, providing more stability to power the turn – while less material is applied over the outside edge, resulting in a smooth and easy perfect turn.” elanskis.com

NANOPRESSO
Built around a newly patented pumping system, the NANOPRESSO is capable of reaching (with the help of your hands) a maximum of 18 bars (261 PSI) of stable pressure during extraction for unparalleled coffee quality. This is more than what most home espresso machines can deliver! Good coffee has never been more portable. It makes a better cup than our local cafe. www.wacaco.com

The Nanopresso is a true field espresso maker. All you need is preboiled water and a true espresso grind. The Nanopresso works best with finely ground coffee that is tamped hard. Simply add the coffee and boiling water, close the unit up tight, and pump into a cup (either the cup that is part of the unit, or your own). The Nanopresso requires 15% less force to pump compared to previous models (1st generation Minipresso). Note: the Nanopresso is best for one person, two at the most. If you use it for a larger group, you can’t make the coffee fast enough to please everyone. If you’re using it for two, make sure you preboil lots of water and pregrind lots of coffee. The unit cleans up quickly and easily between brews.

The Nanopresso is well-made from durable, heat-resistant, food-rated non-BPA plastic but we wondered if it could be made without plastic? Perhaps biopolymer or stainless steel could be future options? Even if that meant a higher price-point. We think people will pay a bit more to support alternatives to plastic.

“Pertex developed Diamond Fuse technology as a unique way of improving the durability and abrasion resistance of fabrics without adding any unnecessary weight. Diamond Fuse fabrics use yarns with unique diamond-shaped filaments that actually lock together to create a durable and highly abrasion resistant fabric. This engineered structure allows these fabrics to remain very stable over extended wear and washing.” outdoorresearch.com
