So when I moved out my aunt gifted me an old Delonghi coffee machine she had in her attic. Today I’ve cleaned it up and bought some double walled espresso glasses, steel milk jug, and milk thermometer.

Just made my first coffee with them and it’s such a boost for my mental health to have a little luxury like this in the morning. I’m currently just buying pre-ground coffee because I don’t have a grinder and I’d also like a better solution for getting the used grounds out of the handle cup thing (sorry I’m new to this don’t know the terms yet) without scraping them out into the bin using a teaspoon. Please can you people suggest some ideas and also what I should save up for next to improve the whole coffee making process.

Thank you :)

Edit: please excuse the mess in the background, my mental health hasn’t been the best recently.
