Espresso Machine Still

Why a home espresso machine costs as much as a computer?

Even when the body is made of plastic are still hundreds dollars. The components of the machine can not be so expensive. Is there any snob factor involved in pricing since before Starbucks, "people common "no espresso drink a lot.

I guess it depends on the type of computer you're price Some automated home espresso machines cost more than $ 2,000. Some reasons why an automated machine would cost so much include: - quality of construction (high-strength manufactured many components) - Integrated electrical system / electronics (an "automated" machine should regulate water temperature and pressure, provide a consistent grind, components are durable, self-cleaning, etc) - Custom fabricated components (boilers, pumps, regulators, valves, leaders, etc. are tailor-made for each machine model, some of which are sold) - Long life (he had a $ 200 Krups machine for 10 years - I would expect a more expensive machine to last for decades if properly maintained) for $ 200 to $ 400 you should be able to find a manufacturer of espresso pump (minimum 1200 watt, 15 bar pressure) that will last for years, making consistently good espresso, and be aesthetically pleasing). Make sure to complement your purchase with a grinder good (around $ 100).
