"Espresso is very good! The method is simple but very clever." -Aldo Colombini

"Espresso is a perfect moment of 'strange' that will leave your coffee house consorts speechless." -Erik Ostresh

"I hate coffee, and I usually hate coffee shop magic... but I might become a java junkie just for this one effect! Needless to say, this trick is HOT!" -Kyle Jarrard

Imagine this:


You're sitting at a coffee shop with a potential friend/mate/client. You each buy a coffee, only to realize that you got iced coffee instead of the hot coffee that you ordered! (The spectator can verify that it's ICE cold.)

Fortunately, with a snap of the fingers (and a little help from the Espresso's clever method), the lid is taken off to see the steam BILLOW out! The same coffee is now PIPING hot and can be sipped at your (or your spectator's) leisure.

With a set-up that requires NO outside props and can be done at the coffee shop in less than a minute, Espresso is an effect you'll learn and always have with you for that perfect moment when you need to blow someone away.

Note from Author:

"When someone pulls out a deck of cards or some coins, there is a shift in mood; everyone knows you're about to perform a magic trick and they are ready for it. With Espresso, you have a totally organic effect that hits spectators right between the eyes when they FEEL the magic happen."

If you ever find yourself at coffee shops, you should own Espresso.

This is a great bit to do in any coffee shop. It is less a visual effect than a tactile one. The spectator actually feels the cold cup and then they feel it after it has turned warm. It will take a moment to set it up but you can do the setup quickly with bits you will find in most coffee shops and all Starbucks.

Pros:
-Easy set up
-Set it up in almost any coffee shop
-Great for "off beat" magic that will convince friends and family you can do magic any where at any time.

Cons:
-Because it is so "situational" it is not something many pros could add to a working set. However, if you were meeting a potential client at a coffee shop it could definitely be used there.

off the cuff Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 25th, 2014
This is some awesome situational magic. If you are trying to win over a client, this will deff help. This would be a perfect trick to do, then go on your normal business. They will talk about this whenever talking about you to other friends or potential clients. Magic without a magical setting. I always like to carry around magic tricks i can do whenever where ever. Karate coin is one, because you do the trick, then you can move on. Same with Espresso.
There is also a bonus included that is awesome as well. Love the concepts and ideas.

Fantastic for the right situation! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 28th, 2014
The effect goes beyond being a magic trick. The delivery Chris recommends allows this to play as a offbeat effect that comes off more along the lines of a miracle. That being said, the set up for this is a bit of a process. It's not difficult by any means, but it would really be worth waiting for the right time to perform. Its so straightforward and organic, that its worth waiting pn the right moment to arise.

Now for the bonus effect. I love this! I immediately went into the kitchen and performed this a couple of times for myself. It looks so clean! The method for the effect will get your mind going on several other possibilities as well. This is something I will definitely be performing!

Chris also gives a couple of great tips on booking gigs and separating yourself from the competition. While the pdf comes in at only a few pages, no words are wasted, and no filler is added. The powerful effects speak for themselves.

Simple! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 25th, 2014
It's a lot simpler than you think. Will try it tomorrow and post the reactions. It's quite simple and very feasible! It's VERY situational and contextual though, so not something you can repeat from "table to table" (why would you though?!)

Espresso Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 7th, 2023
Hmmm, this one is a little troubling. It goes over the usual questions about the spectator's actions (grabbing the wrong part of the cup) with the statement that "it never happens". I am suspect of the "never happens" part.
Another problem was when the magician states "if you know them well enough, let them sip the coffee". The whole premise of this trick was meeting someone for the first time to get them to hire you. How are you going to know them well enough if you are meeting for the first time?
Too many "ifs" involved here to feel confident about trying this without trying it hundreds of times.

this pdf doesn't make any sense to me, I can understand the concept, but the explanation is very hard to follow and I just don't understand it.

Wonderful Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on September 2nd, 2020
This amazing little impromptu effect is quite good. It's unfortunate that I can't yet test it out in the real world until the Covid is over. But I will say, I am looking forward to trying it!

Too much prep and just didn't wow me Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 1st, 2019
I like that 2 tricks were included, but I really can't say I'll use these much (if ever). A few issues: the espresso really relies on a lot of things being available and timing of other people (so control seems diminished), a lot of setup needed, and the effects of both just don't seem like big payoffs to me.

Nice Trick for a Gimmick Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on November 30th, 2017
It is a cool trick for people who like having coffee and using gimmicks for the same time. I wouldn't do it just for fun.
