I’ve been down the great coffee road for a long time. If 300 US is your budget buy a used breville espresso machine and a burr grinder. Brevilles can be found in nearly un-used condition (wedding gift that was never used) and they are cheap to run and maintain and they can produce excellent espresso with some tuning (Americanos and lattes). Got my first one for 100.00 and bought a simple burr grinder at a kitchen store for 80.00 and I was making excellent lattes with some YouTubing and a week of practise. Order some beans from cat and cradle mail order and be done.
I’ve since moved to a couple different machines and now onto a breville oracle. But that first used machine I got sure made great coffee!
