Cheap Coffee Pods

Coffee beans for my Espresso Machine?

Hi, I bought a nice espresso machine which was around $300 (early X-mas present). Anyways, while it is on its plane ride to my house, i’m buying my accessories. I have espresso cups (2oz) cappacino cups (6 oz) and latte cups (8oz). I have a milk pitcher, thermometer, and espresso shot cups. So I think I have all the proper equipment to make an awesome coffee. I have only one problem tho , the espresso beans. I don’t have enough money to buy a nice Coffee Grinder. I don’t like to cut corners on cheap stuff, so I’ll wait to have at least enough money to buy a nice grinder. My question is, should I buy pods to use for my espresso, or ground espresso beans at a coffee shop and use the ground beans for a couple weeks. I know that it is best to grind the beans just before your about to make the espresso, but that isn’t an option at the moment.Thanks!

Pre-ground espresso is fine, I would buy several small packages, and try them, there is not alot of different in there flavours, grind is the biggest difference, some do an extra fine one, I like the Italian brand Gioia, Lavannza, Medalia D’ Or and Excelsior. Keep the Ground Coffee cool I have a small glass snap top jar, and keep mine in the frig, I do not have a machine but the old fashion stove top 6 cup Crema machines, but have found they make just a nice as the machines do, coffee like wine is a preference liking moment, so try a few until you find one your happy with, a grinder is nice, but your not going to have the consistency of a pre-ground product.
