Coffee connoisseurs are a finicky bunch. They require a very specific roasting time, grind size, storage medium, brewing temperature, and even go so far as to dictate the pressure by which the water is forced through the grounds. They’re that picky for a very good reason – coffee’s flavor compounds are remarkably volatile. For example, bitterness in coffee can be in part a contribution from dozens of compounds, some of which are limited by the use of higher-temperature or increased mineral content in the water. Some are present in darker roasts, while one only becomes noticeable if the pH of the resultant brew is 5 or lower. What’s maddening is the conditions by which those bitter compounds become present also brings improved flavor characteristics. Consequently, coffee snobs (we can call them that because many of us are thus self-professed) require a lot of precision in their brewing instruments. Take this new portable espresso dispenser, for example! Many espresso machines of the hand-pump variety give a strong burst of pressure to force the water through the grounds, but the pressure dies off quickly, leaving your espresso a muddy mess of over and under-extracted coffee. The Mypressi Handheld Espresso Machine uses canisters of compressed N20 to give you a half-dozen or more strong pulls at an even 9-bar (135psi) from beginning to end. The resulting cup is hot, flavorful, with a mild bitterness and strong crema. Begin by inserting one of the NO2 chargers into the handle. Then, spoon your own ground espresso into the chamber, or you can use the included adapter to use ESE pods. Then, fill the reservoir with the hottest water you can get. Seal it up, pull the trigger, and you’ve got an excellent hot brew of italian-style coffee! It’s a fantastic device, and makes a truly excellent espresso, as long as you get the water temperature just right, measure the pH properly, and have just the right blend of properly roasted beans… one step at a time, I guess!

The Kuku is driving us cuckoo here at ThinkGeek. We keep passing the shiny metal sphere around the office, but nobody can figure out how to open it. Even our smartest monkeys are totally stumped. There just doesn’t seem to be a way to get it open! It’s quite possibly even harder than the Isis Puzzle, which we also can’t solve. If you want the ultimate bragging rights of being smarter than a ThinkGeek monkey, you need to solve the Kuku (or Isis, or both!) and send us pictures so we might sing your praises and laud you as some sort of shiny brushed metal puzzle deity. If you ever do make it to the center of your Kuku, you’ll find a token that can be registered online to play the vault game. To open the vault, you must decode a picture clue to identify a 10 digit code. The first person to enter the code correctly is admitted into the vault for five minutes. In those five minutes, you explore the three dimensional room and choose a safety deposit box. In the box could be cash, a gift voucher, various electronic gifts, or even a new high quality puzzle. According to the manufacturer’s website, no winners of Kuku have stepped forward to claim their prize – will you be the first?
