Good morning from Chicago, and my favorite place to get espresso (The Mothership).

I’m trying to make better espresso from home, so I’m curious as to what methods you all use to make espresso at home that you love.

    I use a Gaggia New Baby espresso machine that I bought for £60 here in the UK of Facebook marketplace. A £100 manual handgrinder (Kingrinder K4) and speciality beans from a local roastery. The espresso I can make at home tastes better than all but the best speciality shops where I live. Honestly, it’s sort of spoiled me now, and it’s rather disappointing when I go somehow I don’t know and end up with a mediocre coffee!
