Leverpresso Pro is the high-end portable lever espresso maker to make café-quality coffee anywhere.

Story

 

 

 

The Leverpresso Pro is the culmination of 6 years of product research, customer feedback, and industry expertise. Completely redesigned, this machine was optimized for peak performance, improved durability for lifetime use, and never-seen-before features.

HUGH Inc. is proud to present a new machine that meets the demands of home baristas and coffee lovers alike.

No need for big storage space. If you have enough space to store a water bottle in your kitchen, you can enjoy a café-quality espresso in the comfort of your home. 

The simple design complements any interior for a moment of extracting coffee in an old-fashioned way –  an analog experience, only for you.

Simplify your morning routine. With just hot water and ground coffee, Leverpresso lets you enjoy your favorite cup of espresso in under 2 minutes. 

The extraction is fully manual and you can control your entire experience – the pressure, the amount, the extraction time to create a perfect cup of coffee. With the help of the pressure gauge, you can adjust the pressure more precisely. 

 

The piston allows for intuitive and sophisticated control, which applies pressure to the coffee evenly every time.

The machine makes 60 ml of espresso (Double Shot) with 16~20 grams of ground coffee and the filtering capabilities have been increased by using an IMS Competition Line Filter which is especially designed for Leverpresso Pro.

Start by adding fresh coffee beans to make a rich creamy espresso, then just add water to make an Americano or simply add milk to make your favorite cup of latte. 

By keeping the diameter uniform all the way from the cylinder to the basket,  the water is distributed evenly over the coffee, preventing any channeling.

We have not only improved the product’s foundation, but also made the lever longer and wider on both sides for a better grip and now you can use less force to create the same high pressure of 9 atmospheres, making it easy for anyone to use it.

The Leverpresso had been designed to  last a lifetime.  All parts of the product can be separated completely for cleaning and reassembled easily for anyone to use them.

 

The top of the cylinder is sealed and silicone sleeves are added to increase safety and to keep the water hot for a long time.

 The new Leverpresso was manufactured with care utilizing 5-axis processing and finalized by manual work. Despite it being fully made of metal,  it weighs less than 1 kg.  Its portability allows you to enjoy your cup of espresso anytime, anywhere. 

 

Step 1.  Add ground coffee into the basket filter, pack and compress the coffee in the filter with the tamper.

 

 Step 2.  Add the top cylinder and make sure it locks when attached and attach the portafilter onto the bottom cup.

  Step 3. Add water into the center of the cylinder.

 Step 4. Pull the lever up and press down for 10 to 30 seconds.

 Step 5. Detach the bottom cup and enjoy your coffee.

LEVERPRESSO PRO UPDATED DESIGN FEATURES

The thickness of the levers has been increased with 3 mm, in order to make the Leverpresso Pro suitable for outdoor use in any conditions.

The company logo has been added on the silicone sleeve and there has been a silicone ring attached to guarantee the stability of the portafilter in both the cup and the Leverpresso Stand.

Marks have been added to the levers in order to track the lowering of the levers during the extractions. 

 

 Step 1. Tilt the machine to the side and remove the remaining water. 

 

Step 2.  You can remove the water by lowering the lever. 

Step 3. Remove the coffee puck and rinse all of the parts with water. 

 

Step 4. Leave the parts to dry well after rinsing. 

If you want to wash the top part, you can easily remove it by twisting it around. 

 

 

 

Leverpresso Pro looks like a simple machine on the outside,  but all the parts have been carefully designed with functionality and portability in mind. These parts have been optimized through various research for the last 6 years, striving to create details that otherwise cannot be seen in products of mass production. 

A combination of straight lines and curves gives Leverpresso a soft and subtle look.
