Are you getting good use out of your espresso machine? (lemmy.world)

I'm currently brewing in an Aeropress, and considering one of the lower end espresso machines.

But based on a few comments from James Hoffmann about him drinking filter coffee at home, I'm wondering if an espresso machine is something that people end up using every day, or if people are brewing with simpler methods and just making espressos when they've got time on the weekend or people over?

What's your experience, did you buy a machine and it mostly just takes up counter space, or is it a daily source of joy?

Fully automatic espresso machine. Pull a ristretto and a single shot every morning, takes a few seconds and I'm out the door. Pour over futzing and bigger cup of coffee is for the weekend when I have time. Kind of sounds like the opposite of what you were thinking, but this is my go to to make sure I always have a good espresso or coffee with a busy schedule. Oh, I completely love my Jura btw. Total joy. Also occasionally make a cappuccino, but just use a little separate milk foamer for that.
