From personal experience the Areopress is way easier to use. It is more forgiving. However the Nanopresso and Minipresso brew authentic espresso. Nanopresso with the Barista kit (which is another purchase) allows you to do double shots. Minipresso is the uninsulated version which leads to a slightly weaker shot. I have no experience with the new G2 Minipresso. Which are the three devices in your range If you exclusively want to deal in espresso though I recommend Nanopresso/Minipresso. It brews under pressure. That said it takes a little bit of playing around to get it right. Even down to the pressure packing in the espresso grounds. It depends how you rank "easy to use". Which is entirely fair in the morning. I also have a Nespresso machine for that exact reason Edited: shit was used when I meant shot

Moka pot is my daily work driver because I can slap together all the components quickly enough to make a tasty brew. On weekends I do a pour over or an espresso using my Minipresso as I have more time to be leisurely and experiment. I have a cold brew attachment that came with a large thermos that I haven’t used yet. I also have a Vietnamese phim but it’s so niche it’s just collecting dust now, I rarely make Vietnamese coffee.
