The Pipamoka is an all-in-one travel coffee maker from Wacaco that brews and holds coffee in the same insulated mug. Its twisting mechanism creates vacuum pressure that pulls hot water down through the grounds, producing a clean cup in about two minutes without paper filters. It suits commuters, campers and office workers who want fresh coffee without a kettle-and-pour-over setup. Against press-style travel makers it brews faster and leaves less sediment, but it holds one cup and needs a medium to medium-coarse grind.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 from 464 ratings, owners largely praise the Pipamoka for fast, clean coffee anywhere and the mug that keeps it hot. Complaints center on the learning curve of the twist brew and the small single-cup yield.
Pipamoka is an all-in-one portable coffee maker that brews and holds your coffee in a single insulated thermal mug. It was designed and engineered by Wacaco. It does not heat water, so you add hot water yourself.
A twisting mechanism and a patented construction create vacuum pressure inside the mug. The resulting suction draws hot water down through the coffee grounds, and the coffee brews directly into the mug. A cup takes about two minutes to make, and the insulated mug keeps the coffee hot for hours.
A permanent micro-filter mesh replaces paper filters and lets the natural oils in the coffee pass into the cup. The brew ratio is close to 1:15, or 1 g of ground coffee to 15 mL of water, similar to standard drip or infusion methods. A medium to medium-coarse grind is recommended.
