We have a big espresso culture in Australia, so a lot of people have espresso machines at home anyway. Compared to coffee from the shops every day it's pretty cheap to buy and run a consumer espresso machine at home. That said, part of the fun of coffee is the cafe experience; covid willing, I still go out to cafes as well. Best not to optimize all of the fun out of life.
