[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's your current coffee routine? And when you say espresso machine, do you mean a serious one where you will also need a good grinder and to learn to pull shots properly, or a pod machine like Nespresso, or one of the super-autos where you push a button and it grinds/brews for you?[/quote] Honestly, I'm not sure. I think time/cleanup/cost will all factor into the decision. Right now we're grind our own beans every second day or so people. We use a cheap-o stovetop espresso maker, Bialetti, and like how it brews a VERY strong cuppa...though not really "espresso" per say meaning there's no lovely, creamy, head on the pour. Oh, I think noise will play a factor too. We can't have anything too loud in the morning. But reading through these threads it sounds like I could probably put an ISO add for a Gaggia machine and come up with a few folks willing to sell their gently used models. May be a good way to dip a toe in the water.[/quote]
