breville makes consumer crap

bumping for interest

baratza virtuoso for the ginder

skip the espresso machine. espresso is the fedora of coffees

get a pourover or a clever or a vacuum or an aeropress or a cevze or literally anything but an espresso machine

fresh roasted beans. don't buy beans if they're not marked with a roast date

>actually thinks coffee is superior to espresso

oh no, its retarded.

Hurr durr lets make a blend of shitty charcoal

your coffee is shit because you're using a drip machine, not because you have a shitty grinder. try a french press or aeropress

Recommendations for cheap electric burr grinder?

Stop being a pussy and just drink the goddamn coffee you make. Unless you want to be a pretentious fuck and drink coffee the way it smells, then just deal with it.

I also enjoy consuming products I don't enjoy

Don't go for entry level anything related to espresso. Home espresso is expensive and time consuming to get anywhere close to what a dedicated shop puts out. Just go look up the price of a professional machine and grinder and you'll see what I mean.

You're better off with a virtuoso like what >>8985495 said and a chemex or a v60.
