After jumping in at the deep end (im awaiting delivery of a La Pavoni Europicollo - not working), i want a grinder that will do it justice.
I bought it because the first espresso machine i ever used was a big old thing with a lever pump, and i was quite dissapointed to find out that most just have a switch or a button.
For years ive been fairly happy with my three stovetops, and usually fairly unhappy with the espressos served at most cafes (you want $3.50 for that?????), but now i want crema!
Ive read a few posts, and i know that half the replies will be "rocky", but i cant PM any of the for sales until i have a post up......
I have only a little money, and SHMBO will not give me any bench space (even though it was her that seduced me away from instant with that sweet dark portuguese bica.)
Is there anythind to be careful about second hand grinders (i.e buying unseen on ebay), and will a sunbeam cut the mustard until i get a real one.
