I asked for recommendations on espresso machines. This does
not mean I don't know anything about coffee and/or espresso, it
does mean I'm willing to learn more about currently available
espresso machines. Is that too much to ask?

I'm perfectly willing to believe that what I want to come out of
the espresso machine doesn't meet your definition of "espresso".
And even that your definition is the correct one.
Still, what I'm after cannot come out of any other sort of coffee
maker, so I still need an espresso machine to make it, misnomer
may that be.

You know nothing about anything, you low IQ imbecile... you don't
belong on a cooking newsgroup, you have nothing to contribute, all you
do is take... actually you pilfer.

You only asked for a recommendation for a burr grinder, you were
offered that. That you were offered much more informtation than you
bargained for should be considered a bonus. Normal brained folks
would have said "Thank you", but not a prig such as yourself. You are
an ingrate.
Glad to not have made your acquaintance.

You could back and look and notice that I said "thank you" to
those who replied to my query.

Possibly, you're too busy frothing to read carefully.

His definition of espresso couldn't be more wrong. Typical for
Sheltie. That eleventy million Italians drink moka pot coffee is no
more a valid criteria for good espresso than the millions of Americans
who drink Dunkin Donuts or 7-11 and call it good coffee or Budweiser
and Miller and call it good beer. No one who knows and really enjoys
great espresso still roasts quality espresso bean blends (espresso is
*NOT* a roast!) to a greasy charcoal end. Bottom line, you wanna
taste the real deal, you're going to have to spend some money and
learn some skills (what a shock! ...kinda like cooking). You want to
drink crap and call people names, follow Shelby's advice.

Another moron with nothing useful.. if all you can
do is call names but offer nothing positive then you're just another
dumb putz... you offered nothing helpful, you angry piece of shit.

Ahh... isn't that cute. Shelting responds with another round of
namecalling. Even got him to sling some fecal matter. Lil'
pensie-wensie wanna peanut?
