Dreame Ecceluxe Go: A Portable Espresso Machine for Camping
Thanks to modern technology, brewing high-quality espresso while surrounded by nature is no longer a challenge. Dreame’s new portable device, the Ecceluxe Go, is designed specifically for those who refuse to compromise on their coffee ritual while hiking or camping. A key advantage of this device is that it eliminates the need for a separate stove or kettle to heat water.
Capabilities and Design
The Ecceluxe Go is roughly the size of a soft drink can, making it highly portable. The package includes a carrying case and several adapters, ensuring versatility. Users can choose between Nespresso Original and Nestlé Dolce Gusto capsules, ESE (Easy Serve Espresso) pods, or simply ground coffee.
The device features a touch-sensitive LED display that indicates battery level, temperature, and the selected mode. It charges via a USB-C port, a convenient feature for the modern traveller. One minor drawback is that the touch button is quite sensitive and lacks a lock function, which may lead to accidental activation.
Brewing Modes
The machine offers two primary operation modes. The first, P1, heats water from room temperature to 95°C, a process taking approximately six minutes. The battery provides enough power to brew two or three cups of coffee. The second, P2, is designed for when you already have hot water available; in this mode, the machine performs only the extraction, which is significantly faster and more energy-efficient.
Who is this for?
The Dreame Ecceluxe Go is ideal for frequent travellers or those living in small apartments where there is no space for a large coffee machine. However, it is not intended for large groups; if you need to prepare coffee for several people at once, traditional methods remain more practical.
The device will initially launch in Spain and Portugal, with a release in the US market to follow shortly. While pricing information has not yet been disclosed, its functionality and compact design make it a standout player in the portable coffee machine market.
