Both machines feature a vibration pump, and their portafilters are designed with a standard diameter of 58 mm. The Breville has a steam boiler capacity of 1.8 liters and a water reservoir capacity of 2.5 liters, whereas the Decent uses a 2-liter convertible water source with no dedicated steam boiler.

Features Comparison

In terms of features, the Breville Oracle Touch includes auto shutoff, integrated grinder, and PID control, but lacks a boiler pressure gauge. The Decent DE1 XL, on the other hand, offers additional functionality such as flow control, a boiler pressure gauge, and smart connectivity. Both machines come equipped with features like a steam wand and pre-infusion, but the Breville model allows for concurrent brewing and steaming, while the Decent model does not.
