    I think coffee shops should 100% be allowed to price gouge. Its a product anyone can easily make at home for pennies.

    It’s like those multi million dollar art installations that’s literally just a yellow square with a red dot in the middle.

      to be fair a setup that can make espresso drinks in the same quality league as coffee shops will cost in the range of 1000-3000€ but if you drink one cup per day then you can save that amount in a year by making coffee at home

        Well, in that case, I don’t think anyone can make the case that espresso is a necessity, so again, gouge away.
