Espresso is traditionally a commercial brew method. The whole approach to making coffee was designed specifically to address large volume requirements. However, in recent years, espresso has also become the coffee brewing method most often associated with high end coffee. For that reason, more and more coffee-lovers are choosing to invest in the equipment and more and more manufacturers are making great equipment available to the coffee curious. 

Below you'll find a collection of espresso equipment that we have assembled because we think it's the very best for equipment for the amateur barista. Many of these grinders and machines have been specifically designed with the office barista or home barista in mind, but we've also included some commercial equipment that we think is still quite practical in these instances.
