[BlindTlk] looking for accessible espresso machines

[Sherry Gomes]

Okay, thanks. I want one that will let me use my own coffee. My stomach doesn't like the coffee in the pods and capsules, and I like to grind my coffee fresh each day. But I'm still going to keep this, just in case, because in a pinch, this could be a good choice.

Unfortunately, you can't use your own coffee because the machine only works if you  insert a capsule. It works kind of like a Keurig in that the machine punctures the capsule and then starts brewing the coffee.
