Does a pressurised basket count as espresso, or just a hot immersion brew with fake crema?
Genuine question rather than gatekeeping - I don't know whether it brews similarly.
I still have the pressurised thing that came with my Gaggia although I've never really used it: maybe I should compare it to the regular basket with coffee ground correctly for that, and find out.
Cafelat provide a restricted basket for that very purpose, dealing with second rate or preground coffee.
