I bought my first espresso maker August 01, 2009 of Amazon for $32.00. I still use it, but took it to where I work. I just bought the same maker Jan. 15, 2014 for $3.00. A few months ago purchased a burr grinder for $15.00 plus shipping.
I'm still not positive that I'm making espresso correctly after all this time, I have read that the grind should be about the size of granulated sugar, and to use the double size filter, preheat filter and filter holder, fill up a 1\3 cup with a fill time of about 20 seconds which helps determine if grind size and tamp were good, use 2\3 cup milk for latte.
Anyone got praise or criticism?
