My beloved Jura passed away after nearly 20 years of faithful service  :-X...

New Jura just too expensive for me, so I am looking at the following options:
1. Seriously considering the Breville with integrated grinder, but while it gets mostly excellent reviews, there are also a few scary stories on the net about grinder failure, water leakage, etc. Any thoughts?

2. This little Delonghi Eco 130 seems to be very popular worldwide and comes with 15 bar pump for around R2000 http://www.delonghi.com/za_en/products/icona-eco-310w/. The pump machines are much better for real espresso's than the steam ones imo (at least those within my budget). But if I go this route, I need a good burr grinder - and that is where I need advice. Which make, where to buy, etc. Budget is around R2500 for grinder.

Thanks  :)
