You don't need to spend 10k for good espresso. Get a used portafilter machine, a grinder and good beans. I used to drink Nespresso but gave up because of the huge amount of waste. Now I am happy with my Saeco Aroma (old model, bought for 150 euros). Actually I even went back to hand grinding with my Hario grinder some month ago. I'll take the time and also have some workout :)

Maybe not "the best" - but for 30 cents a pop, it's so easy, and it's always good. Of course what you drink at caffe Mexico in Naples is a different thing, maybe a different planet; on the other hand,there are whole countries and maybe whole continents where your trusty Nespresso will brew the best coffee.

You should try their Inspirazione Napoli roasts if you haven’t. Wonderful.

Yes, just tried it the other day and it's great. Not a hint of acidity. Now need to decide which one I like best.
