$5k budget and a manual grinder? The grinder is an enormous factor in ease and consistency. The new ECM Technika IV not released but due any day. Bombproof construction. Don’t want to wait, get a Synchronika II. Then I’d find a grind by weight grinder you like. Pull the trigger and live a happy life after you learn to operate them and generate a quality shot. But the gear won’t be a limiter. Quick google search says Mexico is very similar with the same outlets as the USA. But I would follow up with the mfr of each device you want, to confirm. I wouldn’t trust a retailers opinion.

Before I bought my ECM technika profi over 16 years ago, I went through 4 machines that broke, brands included breville, krups and sunbeam. I now have the ECM and a la pavoni professional that will outlive me I'm sure.

My ECM technika (made in Germany) has been going strong for over 15 years The only thing I replaced is a worn steam valve.

We have an ECM from idrinkcoffee. Their store/showroom is in Milton for anyone in the GTA. They're awesome.
