I have a delonghi electric grinder. I buy fresh coffee beans and grinds them before making them.
I am not sure if a more expensive machine would make better coffee or not. But I think the quality beans play a more important role in the taste of the coffee.
Just like one can use a world class professional cooking wares but cooks with low quality unfresh ingredients will taste like crap.
In your honest opinion, for a beginner like me who doesn’t aspire to be a professional barista but still wants to make decent espresso and latte at my comfort of my small apartment without splurging on lousy and expensive coffee at Starbucks and cafes.
Which machine would you recommend? I don’t need a fancy big machine as my apartment is very small. And I am the only one drinking coffee at my place.
@BacktoBasics,
The unit jaga is selling above is one of the better brands IMHO, and 3.5K for both the Macap & Rocket would be a steal (if he is selling as a package), also IMHO.
Of course this is under the assumption if the machines are still working well
Prices for brand new units of these combo is easily more than RM 10k.
Personally, I'm using Breville DB, and it has been serving me well for the past 3 years.
