  • I’ve realised my v60 was merely a gateway drug and that now I’m craving something purer and stronger...

    I’m the only coffee drinker in my house And work 5 days a week, but I love a nice espresso.

    If you were to get a grinder and small machine for this use, what would you get? I’m willing to spend up to about £400, want something easy to maintain, have limited space and hate new-fangled plasticy and touchscreenish designs. Happy to buy second hand too. Any advice much appreciated...

    Something like this? Comes with £100 voucher st the

  • Here's my opportunity to promote the Robot.
    As the only coffee drinker in house, who wants espresso, has limited space, doesn't want technical complexity and, I'll add, wants some of the best coffee you can get from a simple home machine, it ticks all the boxes.

  • Buy 200 espressos while you’re out and enjoy delicious hassle free V60 coffee at home 😉

    @JackSloan Gaggia Classic and Iberital MC2. I've had the Classic over 10 years and it's capable, adjustable and bombproof. I don't have that grinder, but it's the one everyone talks about for espresso at that budget and it's the one I would get if I were to get a grinder. You'll need a 58mm tamper to fit the basket and some scales like the Yagua Barista scales from Yellow Bourbon are helpful.
