Espresso Machine!?

Hi
I love coffee especially espresso. Recently, I bought instant espresso but it can't be compared to freshly brewed :wink:
Therefore I would like to buy an espresso machine. I know they are pretty expensive and I wanted to get some recommendations or experiences first.
Do you know good brands? Is there anything else to consider?

Arduino was a King of Italy, and the name of the bar some of the original designers hung out at.

Also, there were some (1920's?) high-end expresso machines branded ARDUINO. I'll look for my photo...

So this is NOT as off-topic as it originally appeared :slight_smile:

HERE!

THAT's an Arduino MEGA...

HERE is the original Decimila:

Those of us who are Historic have more interest in History...

Maybe so, but what does this have to do with General Electronics?

What would be really cool would be if anyone's any good at graphics editing, they could edit an Uno or something into either of those photos, hooked up with a bunch of wires to the machines. And add some blinkenlites....

I used instant in a jar ; a sort of 8266 I guess ?
