My choice for a home espresso machine is the Breville Barista Express
See this video on using it link

Using a French Press

Really good video about brewing your cup using your espresso machine link
Notes from this video

• Grinding
  • Dark roast works best with a coarser grind
  • Light roast works best with a finer grind
  • Make grind Finer if coffee comes out too fast; adjust Coarser if comes out too slowly
• Dose should be the most ground coffee you can put in the filter basket without seeing an imprint of the screen after drawing the espresso
• Adjust Grind, not Dose.
• Adjust dose to get more or less espresso out.
• Timing. You should get 2:1 espresso out in 25-30 seconds. For a 18g dose, you should get 36g espresso out in 25-30 seconds.
• Temperature of water going into filter to be 93-95 C
