I've been a huge AeroPress fan for years (at least 15 I think), but recently moved to a house with a massive kitchen and bought a good mid-range espresso machine and I have to admit, I'm in love with it. I got this one [0] for reference and it's filled with really clever design touches. Only the quality of the steam control dial lets it down, in every other respect it's superb. The AeroPress has gone in a drawer and not been seen since.

Edit: Meant to add, actually the entire flow including steaming the milk is faster and less messy than the AeroPress too.
