Our verdict on each
OutIn
OutIn is the pick for anyone who wants genuine espresso away from a kitchen counter, and the €127.49 OutIn Nano keeps the outlay low. The trade-off is what you give up: no built in grinder, no milk system, and a 1 year warranty rather than a long one.
Tribest
Tribest suits drinkers who want manual pour-over or a standalone grinder rather than an automatic espresso machine, and its prices follow that route: the UNFLTR Bloom filter sells for $12, the lowest entry price in the field. A spare parts shop lets an older unit keep brewing.

Pros and cons
OutIn
Pros
- The OutIn Mino pulls 22 bar, at the ceiling of the espresso field where the set median is 19 bar.
- Entry cost of €127.49 for the OutIn Nano keeps both machines under the coffee machine entry median of €139.44.
- A spare parts shop is available, which matters once a portable machine starts leaking or losing pump pressure.
Cons
- No built in grinder, so beans have to be ground before every shot, and the Mino pod system of nespresso original narrows what you can use.
- Milk handling on the Mino is none, so lattes need a separate jug or frother.
- A 1 year warranty is thin for a machine bought to last, and buyers wanting a bean to cup route should look at Philips instead.
Tribest
Pros
- Entry price of $12 for the UNFLTR Bloom filter, the lowest starting price among the 65 brands compared.
- Grinding is built in, and pour over and grinder puts brewing and grinding on the same roster, so fewer separate boxes on the counter.
- A spare parts shop is available, so replacement parts can be ordered after a sale rather than replacing a working machine.
Cons
- The range stops at pour over and grinder, so no espresso or bean-to-cup machine is listed; Philips covers bean to cup and espresso.
- The flagship Shine cold brew maker costs $129.95, which places it 6 of 63 brands rather than at the top of the field.
- Milk drinks are handled by the Soyabella with 1.3 litres of capacity, while pressure brewing is left to GASTROBACK, whose types cover espresso, drip and grinder.
Who each suits
OutIn
Who it suits
- Office and hotel workers who want espresso away from a shared kitchen
- Camper and travel van users weighing a machine that draws only 120 W
- Buyers who value low entry cost over a built in grinder
Who should look elsewhere
- Philips buyers who want a bean to cup machine that grinds and froths on its own
- GASTROBACK buyers who want drip and espresso together in a full size kitchen machine
Tribest
Who it suits
- Drinkers who like controlling grind and pour by hand rather than pressing a button for a fixed shot.
- Households wanting a soy milk maker alongside a grinder, since the Soyabella holds 1.3 litres.
- Buyers who keep equipment for years and care about parts, with a spare parts shop and a 2 years warranty behind the range.
Who should look elsewhere
- Espresso drinkers, since Philips covers bean to cup and espresso where Tribest covers pour over and grinder.
- Cappuccino fans, because GASTROBACK lists espresso, drip and grinder and Tribest's pour over and grinder stops short of espresso.
- Shoppers wanting drip and espresso together: Daewoo Electricals offers drip, espresso and grinder.

Questions about each
OutIn
How much does the cheapest OutIn machine cost?+
The entry machine is the OutIn Nano at €127.49. That is a purchase price rather than a promotion, so nothing needs renewing later and no subscription follows. The OutIn Mino and OutIn Fino sit in the same OutIn Nano, OutIn Mino, OutIn Fino, OutIn Nano 2 range, with the flagship at €179.99.
What is the pressure on the OutIn Mino?+
The Mino delivers 22 bar, which is genuinely high for a portable machine. For comparison, the median pump pressure across coffee machines is 19 bar and the espresso listing median is 19 bar. That headroom is what pulls a proper shot rather than a thin one.
Tribest
What does a Tribest coffee machine cost at each end?+
The UNFLTR Bloom universal cone filter is the entry point at $12, and it is a filter rather than a brewer. The Shine Kitchen Co cold brew maker sits at the top at $129.95, with grinding built in. Both are product prices, so the spend happens at the buy rather than as a renewal.
Does Tribest make espresso machines?+
No. Tribest's machine types are pour over and grinder, which cover manual pour-over brewing and grinding, with no pressure brewing listed. Philips covers bean to cup and espresso, so anyone chasing a pressurised shot or a bean-to-cup routine is better served there. GASTROBACK and Daewoo Electricals both list espresso among their types.
