So I received a Tassimo machine for Christmas and got hooked on Espresso ever since. I also realized that if I drink a good quality coffee in the morning I'm set for the day and don't need to drink another 3 throughout the day!!
That being said, and since my stupid Tassimo broke down on me four times in 3 months I decided to look for a real Espresso machine but wow is it ever so complicated! Machines vary from $200 to $5000 and all have different features, specs, bells & whistles (some that are probably more important than others).
The primary reason for my thread is to get some input as to what I should be looking out for and what I should avoid. Throughout my quick research I found a Breville BES830XL machine on sale from $449 to $299, does anyone have experience with this machine or can give me feedback on it?
Thanks for your help MR !
