What is the best espresso machine available?
I recently bought a Breville for $250.00. The pump did not work well for steaming the milk and the espresso was never hot enough. I returned it after a month. I have attempted to buy a Starbucks Point on eBay and keep getting overbid. I want the real thing. Any advice/experience?
This is according to my husband, who is pretty experienced in this area… He says do not get the Starbucks one, it’s a ripoff for the brand name. Breville is overpriced and not the greatest. He recommends Expobar as the most practical. It is good for the price, and I actually have experience using that one as well, and I think it works very well. : ) Hope that helps!
