I have owned a La Spaziale S1 for many years. It is a simple, long lasting machine that has everything you need for home use. Very durable.
I also roast my own coffee. Have you tried a French press? With fresh roasted coffee you get the best flavors from the coffee bean oils. These oils evaporate within two weeks after the roast and best enjoyed through a French press. How deep do you want to go down the coffee rabbit hole? 😂
