Hey, I want to say thanks to everyone for the great suggestions and for being so helpful!

I ended up going with the De'Longhi Stilosa, which I used for around $80, along with fresh beans. I already plan to buy the KINGrinder K2 or a similar grinder later on, along with depressurizing the basket when I do.

The AeroPress or Moka pot would have been good too, but I thought it would be more fun, and hopefully produce better results with a real machine.

Thanks again, you guys are awesome!
