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.

The Magical Fruit
The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

I have a Decent DE1PRO at home but you don't need to do that, you can get great espresso with something like a Bambino Plus, a good hand grinder, and some accessories to improve consistency (like 0.1g accurate scales)
For a lot of people I think they'd be perfectly happy making espresso-like drinks with a Mokapot or an aeropress at home.
I have both a Mokapot and Aeropress. I agree for most people those would work fine. I’ve gotten close with a Mokapot but not quiet there …..
