I think coffee shops should 100% be allowed to price gouge. Its a product anyone can easily make at home for pennies.
It's like those multi million dollar art installations that's literally just a yellow square with a red dot in the middle.
to be fair a setup that can make espresso drinks in the same quality league as coffee shops will cost in the range of 1000-3000€ but if you drink one cup per day then you can save that amount in a year by making coffee at home
Well, in that case, I don't think anyone can make the case that espresso is a necessity, so again, gouge away.
If you can afford a 1-3K espresso setup you probably don't think about saving money on coffee
well if you got savings but low income you can afford one time costs such as that. i got a 1k espresso setup mainly so i dont have to spend 20-40% of my disposable income on coffee from cafes
Bambino is 600, if you do the math it pays itself off in like two or three months of owning one vs going to a coffee shop.
Bambino won't pull the same shots that a great independent coffee shop's equipment will.
