Machine Overview

The Crem One Duo V is priced at $2,500 and is classified as a semi-automatic machine that targets intermediate skill levels. In contrast, the ECM Synchronika is more expensive at $3,249 and is aimed at advanced users. Both machines are designed to serve those with a passion for espresso, but they cater to different levels of expertise. The difference in price may reflect the varying capabilities and features offered by each brand.

Brewing Comparison

When it comes to brewing information, both machines utilize an E61 group type and support a convertible water source. The Crem One Duo V boasts a brew boiler capacity of 1.6 liters with a steam boiler capacity of 1.7 liters, while the ECM Synchronika has a smaller brew boiler capacity of 0.7 liters but a larger steam boiler capacity of 2 liters. Both machines feature dual boiler systems and have a heat-up time ranging from 15 to 30 minutes, but the Crem One Duo V employs a vibration pump compared to the ECM's rotary pump.

Features Comparison

In terms of features, both machines offer automatic shutoff, boiler and steam pressure gauges, concurrent brew and steam capabilities, hot water functionality, and various PID controls. Notably, the ECM Synchronika includes an over-pressure valve, while the Crem One Duo V does not. Both machines also come equipped with pre-infusion, shot timers, solenoid valves, and steam wands with no-burn technology. These features highlight their similarities but also indicate slight differences that could influence user preference and performance.
