Espresso machines with pressure or flow profiling
Would definitely recommend a Flair 58. I bought mine for our second home, and have taken it on trips when we are staying at a hotel or AirBNB. I've had many nice machines over the years, a number of HX machines, LM GS3, Londinium L1, and I have so much fun using the Flair! Its so inexpensive

Flair 58 mid-shot pressure drop
I have the original 58, and don't seem to have your problem. Your pressure is all over the place. I preinfuse, then bring the pressure to 8-9 bars, then start backing off the pressure after pulling about 20g. Here's a vid of my routine: Rob {video}
