I stopped drinking Maxwell House years ago, thanks  to the kind people here..... I saw the light. I figure that if you are going to drink espresso you might as well do it in style, that includes a really nice machine. Even if you have to spend a little coin to get it.

I like that La Marzocco G/3, but I will have to cash in a few chips for it, looks nice though.
