Cheap vs Expensive- Why Expensive Espresso Machines are... Overrated

Thank you so much for watching! I hope this was helpful. So many people struggle with FOMO, so I thought of this new style of presenting to help people see they really aren't missing out (assuming same grinder AND apples to apples wrt flat pressure machines). Espresso machines, if just a flat 9ish bar machine, is just a pressurized hot water kettle. Don't be fooled by marketing! While quality is a good thing to consider, I value repairability more. Anyway, cheers!
