Suggestion at your price point - don't go for an automatic machine. The Rancillio is good but single boiler. If you doing milk based drinks consider a HX (Heat Exchange) machine. Dual boilers will be above your price point (unless you looking for second hand) Have a look at the Lelit Mara, Nuova Simonelli oscar and other machines as well. Nice to have features to also look out for is PID, E61 group head, pump type (although rotary pumps might be a bit out of your budget). Places to look at as a starting point - onlinecoffeeshop, capecoffeebeans, Koldserve, Morrico, Cafe Izzo etc in time to come seriously consider an upgraded grinder, buy the best you can afford, Look into Niche Zero (if you can source), Eureka Mignon (or the soon to be released eureka single dose grinders), Coffee Essentials Single Dose etc.
