ps. I've read that not only do you need to invest in a quality machine..but you need to get a good quality grinder

Good stuff. I've heard coffee brewing can be an art.

It's crazy how much the coffee and marijuana culture parallel each other.

If you dont want to make the big investment in an espresso machine consider getting a moka pot. They run only about $40, make great espresso coffee, and lookgreat on the stove when not in use. I bought one a year ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. http://www.bialetti.it/uk/catalogue/scheda.asp?id_cat=24

^as I understand it...a moka pot doesn't really make what true coffee heads would consider espresso.
