Essenza Mini

I've tried every kind of machine, and currently have a Breville Essenza Mini bought used, Keurig K-Supreme Plus hand-me-down

I instantly thought of the Delonghi Dedica also, it is a very decent entry machine. Aldi has them once in a while for $169 I think it was last time I seen it there. Or for a pod coffe machine a Breville Nespresso Essenza mini is a good start for around $200. Check out The Good Guys, JB Hi-Fi or even

Essenza Mini. Madali mag airlock yung Inissia. Also it looks ugly lol. If you have the budget, go for the Pixie. It has an upgraded thermoblock and well designed. All Nespresso machines arent made in China though. Yes the Pixie with the new design is made in Switzerland. But all are made in Europe.
