  • Sorry I know this has probably been asked 1000 times in this thread but I've struggled to search through and find an answer.
    If I want to make great quality espresso/cappucino at home what should I buy? I have a filter machine (night and day obvs) but find myself walking down to the coffee shop every day because I just prefer it. Any pointers would be really great. This would be for 2-3 cups per day and would need grinder etc. Budget is not unlimited but have money to spend on the right product to get things going! Thanks so much for any info

  • Give us a ballpark budget.

  • James Hoffmann has a Best sub-£500 espresso machine video
    you can start with, I think he also has a best sub-£1500 machine video coming. You'll need add an espresso-capable grinder (minimum £250 if bought brand new) too.

    Whatever you choose (if any) prepare to have space for a coffee corner with accessories and all the stuff that comes with home espresso making like weighing scales, tamper, distributor, knock box, brush to start with... plus bottled or RO water.

    Obviously getting the dial and the milk just right takes a time but you eventually get there.
