Hi all, I always liked coffee but for the last year or so I've actually started looking into the brewing side of things. I've experimented with some good home brewers. My favorite so far is the Aeropress.

Anyway, I think I'm ready to get my first espresso machine. I'm a student, so kinda tight on budget. Around $500 is what I can spend on it right now. Can the more experienced people give me some suggestions? I'm happy to get a second hand machine if that's a reliable option.

Or should I just wait a few more months and save more money? Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

Breville/Sage Barista Express. Buy it second-hand for an even lower entry point.

☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!

Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.
