Machine Overview

The Crem One Duo V and Bezzera Aria PID are both semi-automatic espresso machines designed for intermediate users. The Crem One Duo V has a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of $2500, while the Bezzera Aria PID is slightly more affordable at $2199. Both brands are recognized for their quality, making either a solid choice for home brewing enthusiasts.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, the Crem One Duo V is activated via a lever with an OLED display and features a dual boiler system, taking 15-30 minutes to heat up. In contrast, the Bezzera Aria PID also uses a lever for activation but operates with a heat exchanger, making it quicker to heat up in just 5-15 minutes. Both machines utilize a brew group made of chrome-plated brass and employ vibration pump types, but the maximum steam boiler capacity differs slightly, with the One Duo V having 1.7 liters compared to the Aria's 1.5 liters.

Features Comparison

When it comes to key features, the Crem One Duo V offers comprehensive PID control with dual PID options, along with pre-infusion and hot water functionality; it also includes an auto shutoff feature. Meanwhile, the Bezzera Aria PID boasts flow control and a steam pressure gauge but does not include an auto shutoff function. Both machines are equipped with steam wands, solenoid valves, and shot timers, highlighting their similar capabilities geared towards enhancing the brewing experience.
