    Truth my espresso machine was $300 on sale + $100 grinder and beans are typically $20.

    And this is without the fancy accessories most people buy. Also that being said lattes nowadays running $7.50 so I’m pretty sure it would only take ~2 months to break even

      I said coffee, not espresso. I’m talkin drip coffee my guy. I’m talking about the people who would go to Starbucks every morning and throw down $3-5 for drip coffee.

        I suspect the vast majority of people sitting in the line that wraps around the building at Starbucks are getting fancy ass coffee flavored milkshakes.

        I don’t know anyone that actually likes the coffee at Starbucks.

          When they had the clover pour over machines it was nice. Their normal drip is over roasted garbage. It also REALLY gives me caffeine jitters.
