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 started home espresso with a Breville Barista Express. That served me well for about 4 years before I got tired of its limitations, especially in regards to grind uniformity and making adjustments for different roasts (ie temp, pressure, etc.). I stopped using the built in grinder in favor of an Atom 60, which led to a massive improvement and held me over until upgrading to a Profitec Pro 600.
Until I want something plumbed in, or really want to geek out over data from a Decent, I don't see much reason to upgrade any time soon.
Will take a look at the machine. Thanks
