My sister-in-law just purchased an Italian espresso maker. All copper 
and shinny. Makes one
cup at a time. She paid just over $1,000 for this beauty. I have a $23 
Mr Coffee from Walmart
that makes one cup at a time and it does it exactly like the $1,000 pot 
with steam. If you are
going to make one cup at a time, it is hard to see the extra $977 for 
all that copper.
