So my cheap braun coffee machine finally shit the bed and after staying at some European Airbnbs for travel I'm looking at expresso machines. What are you guys running? I'm assuming there are some strong opinions out there since espresso machines are an industrial design target, so let's have 'em.
I'm looking for: simplicity, reliability, charm, nontoxic materials (no plastic), and manual use (not interested in touchscreen shit).

I swear by my Aeropress. Cheap, fast, fantastic coffee, easy to clean, travels well. My first one lasted about 10 years, immediately bought a new one after I dropped it. It's not exactly espresso though, kinda a mix between French press and espresso.

I've got a Gaggia Classic Pro. Pretty happy with it. I have a hand grinder too. I enjoy the ritual of making the coffee, even it takes a few minutes.
