Looking for espresso machine recommendations [$3000]
Currently have Eureka oro mignon single dose and the breville infuser. Looking to upgrade my machine soon.
90% I just make espresso. Maybe 4 or 5 on weekends.
When im hosting sometimes I'll make 4-6 in a row. Or 2 or 3 lattes.
My budget is probably around 3000$ canadian.
When I ask Ai it usually recomends the lelit mara x.
Mara x seems to have an issue where after make more than 2 consecutive espresso the heat gets really high 100+ degrees. Which would only be an issue every once in a while.
Any better recommendations? 3000 candian?
Single boiler vs hx vs dual?
