ive just joined today... 
already ive learned more than probably anyone i know knows about coffee making.
including the owner of the Gaggia Baby ive been using the past 4 weeks.
their Tamper is a good 7mm too small in diameter to their basket size. whats the go with that?
i got myself a couple nice Zas Grinders from Germany, and am now trying to work out what to buy next.
i have squinty dried up computer eyes from reading through countless threads on this subject,
and come to the conclusion that i cannot afford a machine that any of you CSers would approve of.
other than maybe the Ikon which i can get for under $200 from the auction site that apparently may not be named here.
so now im thinking of just getting a Plunger for a while. see how that gos.
i would love to have a machine though...
would you recomend the Ikon for around the $150 mark? new with 12mnth warranty still?
oh and all the pressurised and non preassurised basket talk, is there a cheap machine that comes with non preassurised basket already?
any advice for this newcomer to the world of Coffee Geeking would be great. thanks.
