I need recommendations for a new espresso machine.?
When I started drinking espresso, I tried my hand making it at home. Not sure if it would take, I bought the Mr. Coffee ECM20 which was economical, and I must admit it was good when it wasn’t spewing steam out the top or one of the parts wasn’t broken. It’s time for a new machine. (I’ve spent more on replacement parts than I did on the machine.) I’m looking for something that is still economical and fairly easy to maintain. Thanks.
I’ve been very happy with my Francis! Francis! X1. It is easy to clean and has good attachments. Keep an eye out for them at Horschow Finale or eBay. (Got my for ~$220.) Buying espresso pods from podmerchant.com is handy, too. Try the sampler bag. Good luck!
