How can they not know how to use them? Expresso machines today are made to be quite idiot proof. Even high-end machines like LaMa, Slayer or Synesso, they are so precise on everything. One might not have the expertise to properly tune the gears and whatnot, but once it's set, as far as operating them, it's no more than maybe an hour training.
Whenever I am away from home, I'll grab a larger bag of beans, properly dose them and tune my grinder/expresso machine to fit and just leave a note to wife about how much she needs to use for every shot, what temp and time and the result is highly consistent (one of the key points about high-end gears really) and all she took was maybe 15min of shot-pulling 101 from me and that's it.
