I cant keep it under $100 dollars unless I recommend Craigslist, which is a total crapshoot. I CAN however vouch for this set up of which I use to this day.
BOW - $159.99 http://www.basspro.com/Barnett-Vortex-H20-Bowfishing-Compound-Bow-Package/product/15031108565245/
Reel Seat 19.99 https://www.amazon.com/Great-Deals-LLC-Bowfishing-Reel/dp/B00MUVMWPS
Reel 49.99 https://www.oldtrailsports.com/products/archenemy-nemesis-hd-bowfishing-reel?variant=17851864833
So save another 100 bucks and you got yourself the same setup as mine. Good luck and hope this helps !

If you want true Espresso the first one you list isn't gonna do it.
I think one of the cheapest useable option is the Gaggia Classic. You can get it with a hand grinder and are all set to go. This one is pretty good.
Want to spend more? The Rancilio Silvia is beloved by many, from beginners to advanced. Here it is with a matching electrical grinder.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of those devices, because my kitchen is way to small for more than an AeroPress but I have friends who own this stuff and they make great coffee.
I do the french press method and am quite pleased with the results. I just use my normal amount of coffee- an optimally full grinder load.
I think 8 hrs is ample time though. I just make it before going to bed and its good to go in the morning. If there's any secret, its stirring the slurry well before and after the steep.
FYI this is the one I have: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0106JKUUO . It went up by a little since I bought it, but still cheap, and it comes with a very handy brush.

TESTING NOTES
**
WINNER
Rated as RECOMMENDED:
> Has large capacity and a deep cup, the features we value most in a blade grinder. Some large pieces of bean were left after grinding, however.
Amazon Link
Three others were also rated as RECOMMENDED:
> No cord wrap, but excellent fit between lid and base. Grinds fine, yet does not create excessive amount of coffee dust.
Amazon Link
> Nice deep lid prevents the (unevenly) ground coffee from spilling. No cord wrap
Amazon Link
> Tended to grind on the fine side, rarely leaving large chunks of bean. Did create a noticeable quantity of coffee dust, though.

NOT RECOMMENDED:
banana bread and potato salad grinder
This one. I know it's not the best grinder, but I can usually tell when I'm at the right grind setting. Over the weekend, I'll usually have the Starbucks up the street grind for me and they grind on their metal cone setting. Problem still occurs.
Yep - a grinder will make a load of difference. Freshly ground coffee>>>store preground always, and by a margin. But don't go overboard - the machine wont benefit from a £500 grinder, it isn't designed to.
You could get by with a £25 Hario or Porlex hand grinder, or - if you wanted to push the boat out (and given you are buying in the UK and the Encore and Infinity are a bit pricey for what they are) the Bodum Bistro. This would give you a decent enough grinder for making pourovers, etc if you wanted to extend your range of prep methods idc. Don't bother about the £30-£50 grinders you see on Amazon from Cuisinart, etc. They are without exception terrible.
On the coffee front, its worth ordering from somewhere like HasBean and SquareMile to get some great beans. Again both UK based and as good as you'll find anywhere.
Looking at getting my first coffee grinder and the Bodum Bistro seems like a good option. But what are the differences between these two models?
Model 1
Model 2
Is the more expensive model worth it? The one without the hopper seems like a very compelling buy for just £24.99
One like this? Seems like they're just called knock-off containers or knock-off boxes.
Good luck! This contest is really nice of you to do :)
I really want a spice grinder so I can start experimenting in my cooking more with spices.
I'm gonna piggyback off this for a minute and ask about my options. I've been wanting to drink better coffee since making the switch to black coffee this summer. I'm a college student and I'll be in an apartment next year, so I want something a bit better than the Keurig I currently have for when I'm willing to put a bit more effort into good tasting coffee.
The general recommendation around here seems to be Aeropress which sounds great. I go to college in Ann Arbor, so I have access to great local roasters which I'm very excited about. An electric kettle shouldn't be an issue either.
What I do want to ask about is my grinder - It'll be a hand-me-down KitchenAid grinder that my dad doesn't need anymore since he's got a fancy new drip machine with a grinder right on top. Specifically the grinder is this one: https://www.amazon.com/KitchenAid-BCG100BU-Coffee-Grinder-Cobalt/dp/B00005USQQ/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8
I don't know how good or bad that grinder is - I don't think it's a burr grinder like people usually recommend, but I assume it would still be better than pre-ground coffee?
Any recommendations are appreciated. Thanks!
This is the one I was looking at
Electric coffee grinder.
Better than any grinder and chops your weed in seconds
*I just wanted to offer an alternative for someone who can only use one hand. I'm sorry?
