Rancilio Silvia Espresso Machine

Images P B00076Scvg.01-A1C2U4N2Mgz9D. Sclzzzzzzz The Rancilio Silvia expresso machine costs $500, but considering I drink at least two double espressos per day, this thing will pay for itself in a year. It took me a month to learn how to pull a rich, creamy espresso, but now that I've got the hang of it, I think I do a better job than the barristas at Peet's and Starbucks.

This is one gorgeous, solidly-built machine. I spent a lot of time looking around the espresso geeks' websites, and most seem to agree that this is the one to get. I couldn't be happier with it.
