Are you getting good use out of your espresso machine?

☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!
Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.
Short answer: multiple times every day.
Look at it as a hobby. You will sink as much money into as you want. I started with a cheap mister coffee espresso machine but now have a pretty nice E61 group head machine and jazzed up grinder and all the various coffee toys. It all brings me joy. The morning coffee ritual is what gets me out of bed.
From a cost perspective, if you are the kind of person who drinks 3 lattes from a cafe everyday, then even with the cost of a relatively nice machine and grinder will be paid for with the difference pretty quickly. If memory serves, you save about $4 per cup which adds up pretty quickly.
