I'm thinking the Strada EP1 would be the best you can get today?

Electronic pressure profiling, with a saturated head and all the high quality you'd expect from a LM machine.

How do you define a home machine? The Strada EP 1 is, from what I can find, priced from €10.000, which I find a bit crazy for a home machine, but then again I'm not at all familiar with espresso machines.

Haha I've seen them for slightly cheaper and it's way out of my budget still, but if I could afford it, it seems to tick all of the "ultimate, do-everything espresso machine" boxes.

I measured, and it's so deep that it doesn't even fit on my kitchen counter unfortunately 😂 I'd need to build a dedicated espresso bar.

The GS3 I suppose would be the closest, cheaper, sane home equivalent, but would sacrifice the electronic paddle in exchange for a manual one or AV.
