Cricut EasyPress Mini: Everything You Should Know (2019)

The Cricut EasyPress Mini is the latest to hit the Cricut line of heat presses.
Is it for everyone? Nope. But it certainly serves a purpose and will delight people making certain SMALL projects!
CORRECTION (10/23/2019): At the time that I received this, I didn't have full instructions for use. It is recommended to move around the Mini rather than hold it in one place.
It is available for purchase on Cricut.com and other retailers: shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=567915... (affiliate link)

Settings tested with Temp Gun (Milwaukee 10:1) Setting 1: 265 Center/Middle Setting 2: 315 Center/Middle Setting 3: 370 Center/Middle DISCLAIMER Bottom round part of the circuit mini press usually is around 100 degrees give or take on every setting The Top/tip is 10 degrees off from Center/Middle temp in every setting

[@suebrozek4305]

Setting 1 = 300*. Setting 2 = 350*. Setting 3 = 400*

Is this just a mini iron? I thought it was a stamping machine and researched it. when I saw and found your video. Thanks.

[@aracelis_gonzalez]

On cricut site u can choose what press u have and what material and it tells you how long to press for and what temperature

[@morena78582]

What setting would you use for foil iron? Thanks!

[@oneofakindme7583]

Were do you purchase most of your HTV or iron on?

[@victortruong4184]

Do you need other cricut materials like the cricut joy or other cricut printing devices?

[@nitrodani]

Great info on temp settings for materials! Ty 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@jerrycampbell7427]

100% accurate

[@rohimaxxx]

Can you use this on silicone with parchment paper?

[@VanityVixen]

Do you need a specific plastic as a transfer? Or could I use the normal vinyl transfer?

[@Clarkscondensed]

You just need to use HTV or iron on. You can't use regular adhesive vinyl.

[@maureenrosale6350]

Can i use easypress mini to make pet tags in aluminum anodized tags?

[@carrieking8244]

Please cover your vinyl before you press even if you use a piece of parchment paper. It protects you press from vinyl sticking to it.

[@dollsmaria]

Very nice 👍🏻 you mentioned that you got the stuff elephant on amazon? I search but can’t find the one have 😞

[@dollsmaria]

Clarks Condensed oh my goodness 😘 thank you thank you 😊

[@hikayleeee]

How long does the design on product last if you throw this in the washing machine? (Sorry if that’s confusing) thank you!

[@Clarkscondensed]

I haven't used it a ton, but with other EasyPress products, I've found they last about a year.

[@carrieking8244]

It should last the same as if you used a larger heat press or easy press.

[@JelscreationsNmore]

Do you use a special iron on and do you print ur design from a regular printer

[@jadeyjade3003]

Would this work if i dont have cricut or their software? I have a cameo 3 but this would be good for small projects

[@Clarkscondensed]

Jadey Jade absolutely! You don’t need a Cricut to use an EasyPress :)

[@jadeyjade3003]

Clarks Condensed thankyou! Do you know if the cricut vinyls are good?

[@Clarkscondensed]

Jadey Jade they work pretty well! I think I prefer Expressions Vinyl though.

[@tutumclennan]

I was looking for a video to just tell wth this thing was. For those of us who aren't familiar at all, it would have helpful to say, "it's a mini iron" in the first 30 seconds.

[@kosababy2895]

you guy will need the cricut app for temp so you know what temp to set it on

[@Clarkscondensed]

Yes, this is true.

[@qhshv1339]

can you make dabs out of bud If you put parchment paper between it

[@thedailygrind444]

The real mvp yo

[@mayteidarraga58]

Does it work on swimwear?

[@keashiabohanon9138]

Can it b used on satin ?

[@Clarkscondensed]

They don't have satin as an option on the heat guide, but it does show that it works with silk!

[@amaandaism]

Has anybody encounter their easypress mini have a blinking red light?

[@confestin9186]

Did you manage to sort this out? I am having the same issue after one usage

[@samatrajohnson8813]

Mine did this today on first use.

[@syedamaryam4969]

can we use it for phone cases?

[@icantgetdubs2433]

Maybe try 651 vinyl so u don’t need a heat press at all

[@Sharonc012]

Can I use it on Terra cotta flower pot

[@Clarkscondensed]

I haven't tried that, but I will and let you know!

[@TheMorgueLA]

300, 350, 400 degrees

[@lifewithsierra1971]

I just got the mini as a ton cheaper and I didn’t want to spend lots of money I ended up not liking

[@kcjd8659]

But you’re supposed to move the mini around, not just press it down...

[@Clarkscondensed1]

At the time I did this video (which was before they released it) they didn’t have any instructions available for it :) so I was just doing what was the same with others. Those are now the official instructions from Cricut website. However this works just the same :)
