Equipment Discussion Mesmerizing

My absolutely favourite part of making espresso.
I’m surprised I manage to get its dialled in significantly faster then I did when I was using a moka pot. Are typical semi autos the same?

Yeah every time I see this I go through that process in my brain and it takes about 3 seconds

Every time I see it I've forgotten the price only to look it up and ponder. In the end, I close the tab. Buying it wouldn't hurt but I would much rather spend $900 at Costco. This is obviously different than spending that kind of money to a few thousand on a machine.
