Should I get the dedica as a temporary solution? [$50]
At home I use a bambino plus with a Baratza ESP. Since I am away for work, for more than a month, I thought about buying a used machine to make espresso here. I bought myself a DF64 gen 2 (which I’m bringing back home ofc) and thought I’d try V60 or moka pot, but neither fulfilled my desire for coffee. I want, dare I say, I need espresso. Would the dedica be okay to work with for a short period of time if I can find it for 50 bucks?
I don’t want the best espresso, but I want a decent cup that I will be happy to drink in the morning (my bambino is actually kind of good for that and I’m mostly happy).
