Finally, good espresso on the go? I tested the water bottle sized IKAPE K2 Pro for 3 weeks - here's what it can and can't do.
Thanks Ikape for partially sponsoring today's video.
Confirmed March 14 by Ikape, flow speed is still under development.

🎬 About this video
I spent 3 weeks with the IKAPE K2 Pro all-in-one portable espresso maker — comparing it against my Breville Dual Boiler, testing both brewing modes, and figuring out exactly who this is and isn't for.
