Machine Overview

Machine 1, the La Marzocco GS3 AV, is a high-end espresso machine priced at $7,500 and designed for advanced users. In contrast, Machine 2, the Crem One Duo V, is more affordable at $2,500, targeting intermediate skill levels. While both belong to the semi-automatic category, the significant difference in price reflects their respective target user groups and potential capabilities.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, the La Marzocco GS3 AV features a button activation and a dual boiler system, with a heat-up time of over 30 minutes, making it suitable for extensive use. The machine has a saturated group type and a brew boiler capacity of 1.3 liters. The Crem One Duo V, on the other hand, utilizes an OLED display with lever activation and has a faster heat-up time of 15 to 30 minutes, also with a dual boiler system, but a slightly larger brew boiler capacity of 1.6 liters. Additionally, the group type in the Crem is E61, manufactured from chrome-plated brass.

Features Comparison

Regarding key features, both machines include auto shutoff, boiler pressure gauges, steam pressure gauges, concurrent brew and steam capabilities, pre-infusion, shot timers, and steam wands with no-burn technology. However, the La Marzocco GS3 AV stands out with its smart connectivity and over-pressure valve features, while the Crem One Duo V lacks smart connectivity and an over-pressure valve. Both showcase high-quality PID control, ensuring precise temperature management for brewing.
