Machine Overview

The Crem One Duo V is priced at $2500 and is branded through Crem, catering to an intermediate skill level, while the ECM Puristika is more affordable at $1549, also targeting users at an intermediate skill level. Both machines fall under the semi-automatic category, appealing to those looking for a balance between control and convenience. The difference in price may suggest varying levels of functionality or construction quality between the two brands.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, the Crem One Duo V utilizes a dual boiler system with a heat-up time of 15-30 minutes, making it a robust option for those needing steam and brew capability simultaneously. In contrast, the ECM Puristika features a single boiler with a faster heat-up time of 5-15 minutes but lacks a steam boiler, thus limiting its ability to brew and steam concurrently. Each machine boasts an E61 group type and supports a 58mm portafilter, but the brew boiler capacities differ significantly, with the Crem at 1.6 liters compared to ECM's 0.75 liters.

Features Comparison

Regarding features, both machines include an auto shutoff and boiler pressure gauge, ensuring safety and operational efficiency. However, the Crem One Duo V offers more advanced options, such as concurrent brew and steam capability, PID control with dual PID degrees, shot timer, and a steam wand, which enhances flexibility when preparing drinks. The ECM Puristika includes fewer features, notably lacking a steam wand and concurrent brewing capabilities, while also featuring an over-pressure valve that the Crem does not.
