with my Canon G7X (you probably don't need more camera...)
My espresso with an Italian machine "DeLonghi dedica" from Amazon : 150€. In a shopping center : 250€.
You can pick any pre-ground coffee 100% arabica from Brazil, Colombia,Kenya....... your espresso will be way better than any Nespresso capsule and three times cheaper. What I like the most... I am responsible of the taste of my coffee plus I don't need to recycle these aluminum capsules...
and I can make two espressos at the same time.
I've read on Amazon USA very bad comments about the DeLonghi dedica machine. I believe these people don't know how to use the machine. First of all you need pre-ground coffee but it should be grounded thin but not that thin. In Italy, France or Spain when you buy pre-grounded coffee you know that you can use an espresso machine because it's written on the packaging.
Take a look at this video :
DeLonghi dedica the man don't know how to make an espresso...
VERY important, the coffee should be 100% arabica... never buy arabica + robusta, NEVER !
You could use ESE pods, "Easy pods" with that machine... but a Nespresso machine using capsules is cheaper.
If you don't want to waste time making an espresso buy a Nespresso machine.
Making an espresso takes time.
A machine making real espressos is expensive. If you drink 3 espressos per day - like me - it's a waste of money.
The Delonghi dedica machine will produce an espresso very close to a REAL espresso.
I will explain but I need to make some pictures.
