The espresso process requires a minimum of 6-9 BAR pressure to effect emulsification. This is a key component to production of crema and to extract the soluble and insoluble compounds that contribute to the unique body and flavor of espresso. Aeropress and other similar small hand brewers generate far less pressure than what’s required for espresso. The Flair’s lever system is more than capable! flairespresso.com Help Center - [Go to flairespresso.com](https://flairespresso.com) - [Contact us](https://support.flairespresso.com/knowledge/kb-tickets/new)
