Amazon affiliate disclosure

Shot & Steam is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.

In plain English: when you click an Amazon link from this site and buy something, we earn a small commission. It costs you nothing extra.

How we choose what to recommend

• We pick products based on specs, manufacturer reputation, and where they fit a buyer's situation.
• We don't accept payment to place a product higher in a guide.
• Higher-commission categories don't change our editorial position.

How much we actually earn

Amazon pays a small percentage on espresso machines, grinders and gear — typically a few dollars per order, depending on the cart. We may earn more through direct retailer programs (below) than through Amazon on the same product.

Direct-brand affiliate programs

We also participate (or plan to participate) in direct-brand and retailer affiliate programs, including specialty espresso-gear retailers. The same editorial rule applies — link choice never changes the editorial position.

What this means for you

Prices and availability you see on Amazon may differ from what we show. Always check the destination page. We never collect your purchase data. Amazon does — see their privacy policy.
