anyone else feel like Bay Area rent is just a subscription fee for nice weather at this point
I got a Breville Barista Express over a year ago and it has paid for itself twice over; 3-4x over if I was getting a $7 coffee daily. Plus, the cortados I make for myself, and the lattes I make for my wife, are better than most of the ones we’re getting out and about. Bonus was that I got it on sale

Best espresso machines to buy in 2026? [$500]
Breville barista express often goes on sale for $500. It’s an all-in-1 that still makes great espresso. Or get the bambino and a good grinder

Canadian Coffee Roaster megathread?!
Big vote for Ottawa's Birch Bark Coffee, available by shipping or in some retailers -though I find their ahhhhmazing Indigenous espresso roast can be unpredictably hard to find. It's the perfect bean for our breville barista express - ideal shot every time. Also shout out to my local roaster Propell

Barista Express/ Impress or La Specialista Opera? [500-620 USD]
I have no idea about wattage converting or warranty claims in south east Asia but out of these two machines the Breville is higher quality and will make better coffee. That said, as someone with a Breville Barista Express, if I were purchasing an entry level espresso machine again I would get a Brev

Things I waited embarrassingly long to buy that quietly fixed problems I’d stopped noticing
Breville Barista Express, stopped going out for coffee and the Breville is top notch and makes a mean cup of coffee.

I just want a simple, daily driver espresso setup at home [$700]
You’re right, they are using $6,000 grinder (jk) but they are probably using a commercial grinder and it’s probably around 3k or more. If you don’t want a fussy grinder do not get a df. If you are going for more traditional espresso and want simple efficiency, go with a eureka grind by time, dial it

Do that many people really have almost 7k to spend on a machine?
“Just as good” depends on your uses. I used to have a Breville Barista Express, which makes pretty damn good coffee for around $600. But I host a lot of gatherings where a bunch of people want coffee drinks, and the Barista Express is not great for pulling multiple shots, and it also take a lot long

Good coffee maker for better coffee at home?
Breville barista express best purchase i ever made for my kitchen. Had to troubleshoot once when a tube got clogged, but it's been a gamechanger for 10 years.
