Opus

Yo entiendo que al empezar uno se enfoca en la cafetera. Pero es más importante el molino. Sobre todo si querés ir al espresso. Sábelo, Yo compré la delongui duo y la recomiendo, ví videos de la hibrew y me pareció mejor aún. Pero no olvides un decente molino tipo df54, baratza esp o fellow opus y b
