Hi,
I am going travelling soon and am looking for a compact espresso machine I can take with me on the road, so i can sell a few coffees to 1) help bring in some petrol money and 2) provide a good excuse to lure people over for a yarn (the real reason i guess).
So, as a result I am wanting to purchase an espresso machine (preferably second hand so i can keep the cost down) that does all of the following (and more...):
- compact size, so i can travel with it
- internal water resevoir/ not requiring to be plumbed
- double boilers or heat exhange so i can make espresso and froth milk at the same time
- single group
- makes coffees good enough to sell
- simple/manual/durable construction
Does such a machine exist?
As of yet, I do not know much about the art of coffee, but am keen to learn, especially once i have the equipment. I will be on the lookout for a grinder too.
Can anyone suggest an appropriate machine? Please help...
Kind Regards, Alex
