Making a [caffeinated beverage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cumulus-coffee-machine) has never been easier thanks to the Piamo, a portable espresso maker. Although it might look like a typical coffee cup, it actually comes with a filter and water chamber in order to brew on the go in a clean and easy manner. All a person needs to do is fill it with water, insert [ground coffee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffee-pod-maker), stack, flip and attach the cup.

After that, the portable espresso maker needs only to be placed in a microwave for 30 seconds to heat up. Although not everyone will have access to a microwave when out and about, it is still a great option for those on their way to work or even stopping over at a friend's place.
