yes I guess that is a better way to put it. I purchased a Keurig machine many years ago and thought I loved it at first. (certainly love the ability to make JUST one cup when needed). Loved that everyone could have diff type of coffee at the same time, but quickly realized how bad the coffee tasted and I tried ALOT of different brands and flavors. Too watery and after awhile it seemed like everything tasted the same.I don't understand, there are thousands of brands of k-cups. You mean the single cup brewing method in general is terrible?
It's expensive, I was amazing at the amount people spend on these. You can spend anywhere from $100 to $3,000+
My unit was $700 for the espresso machine, and $150ish for the grinder. You can get them slightly used for $500/$120
Justin, If you read the reviews, the Rancilio is by far the best for it's price range. I'm real happy with it. So far
I've just been making espressos and Americanos, but I next want to try macchiatos.
I was spending $10-$20 a week at Starbucks, so this thing will pay for itself in less than a year, and the
coffee is better.

I do not even know what descaling is, so the answer would be NO on that, but I am not arguing with you, to each his own. I buy cheap coffee from Aldi actually and it works perfectly for my tastes.Were you descaling regularly and running cleaning pods through there? I drink a few different brands, primarily Dunkin original, and I think it's delicious. And yes I've had other kinds of "real" coffee/espresso/cappuccino
