Barista Express Impress

Welcome! This seems like a great starting point (I started with a Breville Barista Express Impress), similar to me when I started. If you were a daily Starbucks person like me, you’ll see the new machine pay for itself in no time. Periodically I’ll do a new cost assessment, and it’s still 1/5 the pr

Between the two of those, go with the Breville. KitchenAid is not a recommended brand on this sub. That said, all-in-one devices are generally not recommend here.

As soon as I saw the pics, I thought you run home coffee machine museum hahaha. I can ask everything to you and you can give good answers without trying to buy new machine haha. I just upgraded from Breville barista express impress to HX machine. It will be my endgame machine so not too much interes

This is a sub of hobbyists with much higher standards than you have. You need to take the advice that actually applies to your goals. You don’t need an “excellent shot,” as defined by a hobbyist, you need to match coffee shop quality (which isn’t usually that great). Don’t over think it. I have a br
