Description
As new condition, one year old barely used, works perfectly. I carefully researched which entry-level espresso machine in the $150 range could be easily upgraded with a couple of accessories. This is the one. (Selling because I was gifted a $750 machine and no longer need this one). Includes (also barely used) 1. Timemore Chestnut C2 manual coffee grinder (sells for $75) with a stainless steel conical burr. This type of grinder is the most cost-effective method to obtain the fine ground you need for good espresso), as well as 2. 2 extra non-pressurized portafilter baskets purchased separately, which allow for more control than the pressurized ones which come with the machine.
