Or just get a super automatic espresso machine. More convenient than a Nespresso, better taste, essentially zero waste. Higher initial investment (~300 EUR), lower running costs.

Get a Delonghi Dedica ec685, you can find it at ~150€. It's the cheapest good machine I can think of.

It comes with a pressurised filter so you can throw whatever ground coffee you buy in the supermarket and it will make a decent espresso.

If you want to take it to the next level you should buy a non pressurised filter, good fresh coffee in beans and an extra 300 for a good electric grinder.

That's pretty much the cheapest setup I can think of to make a good espresso.

Europe, I suppose. For example, the De'Longhi Magnifica S ECAM 22.110 is an entry-level machine for 279 EUR (routinely available for <250 EUR).
