I have been around peers who slide down the slippery slope of finding their perfection over a simple shot of espresso. It is very slick and costs and time come into play if you are not careful. We love good food, nice wine, and a great jolt in the morning. Only hope the OP does not follow the rabbit hole to "if only it could be better". Drive over to your local 7/11 and drink a cup of their swill for a correction. Your brew, on it's worst day, blows that stuff out of the water.

I really, really loved my Breville DB for the first 3 years. It did things that only 3-7k$ machines did. Then all the little o ring and circlips started to blow and leak, and it was a giant headache. I'd have another if it was built like an E61 tank.
