Buying my way in.☕️ [350 EUR]
Long story short: i need advice.
I drink a cup or two at max a day (espreso/risereto with a drop of not heated milk), and I had recent urge to buy an coffee machine. Realized it is stupit to give 1000 EUR for two espreso a day. Then looked into this reddit, googled a bit.
I am thinking to buy this setup - open for advices (aiming for quality, and full enjoyment, but also for long-term quality use)
