## Description

desertcart.com: Flair The NEO Flex with Carrying Case: UPDATED Direct Lever Manual Espresso Maker for Beginners and Travel - Pressure Gauge for 9 BAR Brewing Included : Industrial & Scientific

Review: Great Espresso for Camping and Vacations - I've been interested in the Flair models for some time as a vacation/camping option, but the added cost of adding a pressure gauge had me look towards other options. I used the Staresso Plus last year with good results, but it started to fall apart pretty quickly with moderate use. This Flair 2024 refresh, with it's inclusion of a pressure gauge and affordable pricing, was a great purchase for my last vacation. With the correct grind, this makes fantastic espresso shots using the included black "naked" portafilter - if fact the included red one can be converted to "naked" by removing the pressurized bottom section, which is great for puck prep and pulling multiple shots in a row! The base is just two parts and is easily disassembled for portability. This refresh intentionally thinned the metal of the unit to avoid some of the pre-heating time that previous models required - again, is great for camping/vacation use cases! I've used Rancilio Silvia's for daily espresso for several decades and can attest to the quality of the shots this can produce (under the typical right conditions of grind/tamp/pressure/heat). I do wonder about the longevity of some of the components. The base is plastic, but seems sturdy, although it does make some creaking noises when pulling shots. The pressure gauge is rudimentary at best and does not specify bars - so this is something that could fail prematurely. Also of concern are the gaskets - I'm not sure if Flair sells replacements, but it would be great if they do to extend the life of the product.
Review: Amazing first step into home espresso beverages! - Let me start off by saying I think it's better to buy this from the Flair website than on desertcart. desertcart will likely get you the product faster, but they don't sell the Nespresso pod adapter on desertcart. You can also easily find coupons for your first purchase on Flair's site. In case you're wondering why I say this and still bought from desertcart, I didn't know about the pod adapter until after I got my order from desertcart. Now, if you know that you won't ever use pods with this, then just buy it from desertcart. It's the same product, (at the time I'm writing this) the same price, and it'll likely get to you faster. But I really think the pod adapter is worth it. I've only made one proper espresso with this machine so far, and it was a bit fiddly to do. You need to separate everything, put the cylinder in its cap thing, pour hot water in to heat the cylinder, prep the portafilter (grind then add in your coffee and evenly tamp it down), empty the water chamber, assemble everything, then pull the lever making sure that you maintain the right pressure for the right amount of time of extraction, then clean everything up. It's not difficult, but it's not something that's fun when you are looking for your caffeine fix at the start of the day. I'm sure after enough practice I won't think it's a big deal, but removing the bit with the espresso grounds is amazing when I just want something quick. Though the taste of my properly made shot was better than the pods I bought. Anyway, five stars still because this thing works perfectly and makes a great shot of espresso.

## Features

- HANDCRAFT ESPRESSO AT HOME - The Flair NEO Flex is a 100% human-powered, manual espresso press. With the Flair NEO Flex espresso machine, you have a complete manual espresso maker that can produce professional quality, 9BAR espresso from your home, or wherever you are. Add 60ml of boiled water and a dose of up to 18 grams to yield a 40 ml shot with beautiful crema.
- BREW REAL ESPRESSO - The NEO Flex is an all-manual, lever-based espresso maker. The NEO Flex is constructed from a lightweight poly frame, which is strong and durable, but also light enough to take or store anywhere. And, because the NEO Flex draws on Flair’s existing lever-based espresso technology, you know that you’ll get delicious espresso in your cup every time.
- CHOOSE YOUR PORTAFILTER - The Flair NEO Flex comes with two different portafilters to provide users the ability to select between convenience and control. Start with the red Flow Control portafilter, which doesn’t require a high-quality burr grinder, and which automatically generates the pressure needed for a great espresso extraction. When ready, switch to the Bottomless 2-in-1 Portafilter to dial in your espresso for full control. This portafilter requires a high quality burr grinder.
- KEY PRODUCT UPDATES - The updated NEO Flex now features two key updates, an integrated pressure gauge for direct feedback while brewing your espresso, and a new thin brewing cylinder that requires no preheat. Just add your grounds, your just boiled brew water, and you'll get delicious espresso at home. The lever system of the NEO Flex is capable of generating between 6-9 BAR of pressure, exactly that needed to extract café-quality espresso.
- CUSTOM TRAVEL CASE - This NEO Flex is ready to travel with a custom, padded travel case that zips open and closed. A top compartment will snugly fit the NEO Flex base while the bottom compartment holds the frame and brewing head. A padded insert protects the two sides to ensure your NEO Flex stays in great condition while traveling or in storage.
- EASY TO CLEAN - The Flair NEO Flex is easy to clean and comes with a patented, removable brewing head. When done brewing your espresso, just removed the entire brewing head, separate the parts, and rinse with cool water. No complicated washing or cleaning required!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Manual Espresso Maker – Worth the Effort
*by N***O on August 2, 2025*

I think this is an excellent product. The first time I used it, after reading the instructions and watching a few videos, it felt a bit tricky. But by the second try, it became super easy to use. I didn’t give it 5 stars because, for me, a 5 is at the level of a professional espresso machine. However, after using it more than five times, I started experimenting with coffee grind size, water temperature, and other details until I achieved results that honestly surprised me. Since this is only for making espresso, I bought a milk frother, but I didn’t like it—my coffee came out too foamy. Now, I simply heat the milk and pour it into the espresso, and it makes a perfect classic café con leche. Truly excellent. The only downside, and I saw this mentioned in a couple of other reviews, is that making a shot takes a bit of time. Still, if you have the patience to enjoy a good coffee every now and then, and with some practice, you can make a double shot in about five minutes. Definitely recommended, especially for the great price.
