Flair 2 GO – Portable Lever Espresso Machine for On-the-Go
Six pivot points, one handle – and in seconds, the flat package in its case transforms into a ready-to-use lever press. Add coffee, pour in boiling water, pull the lever, and guide the pressure to the espresso zone on the integrated gauge. Whether on a balcony in Bern, in a city park in Zurich, or in a backpack in the Alps: your espresso is made wherever you are.
Coffee Coaching Club is the exclusive Swiss importer of Flair Espresso – the Flair 2 GO is available from us. It is the travel version of the Flair family: built to fold compactly and produce full-bodied lever espresso on the go.
What makes the Flair 2 GO special
The frame is made of aircraft-grade aluminum (6061), and the brew cylinder is made of stainless steel. The cylinder is thin-walled and protected by a silicone sleeve, which keeps the brewing temperature constant – no preheating is necessary. The integrated pressure gauge (6–9 bar) shows you where you stand during extraction. This version works with ground coffee using a bottomless 2-in-1 portafilter (40 mm), which gives you a clear view of the extraction and full control. When folded, it measures approximately 253 × 135 × 104 mm in its case and weighs about 1.67 kg.

Who the Flair 2 GO is for
For anyone who wants to take lever espresso with them – to a holiday home, to the office, on a trip, to the mountains. If you're looking for a stationary setup with a stainless steel brew path and a larger portafilter, you'll find it in the Flair 49 Pro; if you want the 58mm industry standard and electric preheating, you'll find it in the Flair 58+2. Nobody needs a lever machine – those who want one know why.
What goes with it
For on the go, a hand grinder is best – the Comandante C40 or one from the Timemore Collection, both without electricity. For milk drinks, a Subminimal NanoFoamer. Plus fresh beans from our coffee roastery.

Do I need my own grinder?

How big is it when folded?
In its case, it measures approximately 253 × 135 × 104 mm and weighs about 1.67 kg – it fits in most travel bags.
Can I see the Flair 2 GO before buying?
You can see it live in the showrooms in Bern and Zurich.
Roastery Tip
For on the go, bring a forgiving, dense bean – our Cozy Chocolate or Nutty Delight perform consistently even under changing conditions. Lighter roasts are more demanding on the go because water temperature and grind size have a greater impact. This is our recommendation, one of many.
