Thank you, this stuff is so fucking good and it’s nice to be supporting a good cause :party-cat:
Got me thinking of saving for a manual espresso machine as I’ve only got pour over stuff right now!

Interesting, that seems cheaper than some others from my initial searching! What do you use for foaming milk, if at all?
I’ve got a flair pro for the extra shot size (not really necessary, and needs a good grinder), and then I found an a old Bellman CXE-25 off eBay for steam.
The electric Bellman is great, as long as you resolve to never make coffee with it. It’s absolutely horrible to clean, but if you only use it for steam and top it off with distilled water once a week there’s not much cleaning involved.
Oh wow, that’s super reasonable! Thanks for the recommendation. I was looking at the Nanofoamer but I can’t help but think it won’t be the same.
Yeah, it's way cheaper than you might think, actually, because their flow control portafilter makes it so that you don't need a high-end grinder to make good espresso. So not only will you buy an affordable machine, you also won't need to fork out more than 200 bucks on a Kinu or a Comandante or something like that.
For foaming milk, you most certainly don't need a steam wand or anything like that. Just get the cheapest French press you can find and use it for that. It's actually very easy , it's what I do when I feel like having a latte.
