I've been reading this thread and I've just bought a Gran Gaggia on eBay for just over £20. Needs descaling (is Waitrose's appliance descaler suitable?). I know little about espresso machines but learning from this mammoth thread. Has anyone tried the Coffee Plant in Portobello Road? How does it measure up compared to the likes of Monmouth?
