H10A

Whats important for consistency and a good espresso: Machine: stable temperature Grinder: consistent grind (particle distribution and size) Other things: Same puck prep every time The problem: If your grinder doesn't have a consistent output and a good particle distribution then having a stable temp

Spend a bit more (200E), and get the Hibrew h10A. It has a 58mm portafilter, and a steel lined thermoblock (water is not touching aluminum, basically). With good care, it's a great cheap little machine, that will last you a long time, and make great coffee.

If you buy a good grinder, any cheap espresso machine will do well enough to produce a good cup. If you keep the (super)cheap grinder and buy a good espresso machine, you'll never get a good cup until you upgrade the grinder anyway.

Wenn ihr mit Milchgetränken anfangen wollt, finde ich ne Sage Bambino oder so gegebenenfalls zu wenig. Milch macht aus dem Kriterium Siebträger halt oft noch etwas teureres, weil das Gerät plötzlich noch mehr Power braucht um den Steam zu erzeugen. Wenn du sagst, wie der Schaum/Milch ausschaut und s
