Machine Overview

The La Pavoni Europiccola is an advanced manual espresso machine priced at $730, while the Lelit Anna is a beginner-friendly semi-automatic model available for $569. This pricing reflects the skill levels required for mastery, with the La Pavoni demanding a greater investment of time and expertise to achieve quality results. Both machines are made of stainless steel, ensuring durability and aesthetic appeal. Their design focuses on delivering authentic espresso experiences suitable for different user competencies.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, the La Pavoni Europiccola utilizes a lever activation method with a primary single boiler heating element, heat-up time is less than 5 minutes. Its brew boiler capacity is 0.8 liters, while it has a mechanical piston pump. The Lelit Anna, on the other hand, employs a toggle switch activation and has a smaller brew boiler capacity of 0.25 liters, with a vibration pump. Its heat-up time is longer, ranging between 5 to 15 minutes, indicating a difference in efficiency and readiness between the two models.

Features Comparison

Regarding features, the La Pavoni Europiccola offers pre-infusion and flow control, but lacks a boiler pressure gauge and steam pressure gauge. It does not have features like hot water dispensing or PID control, making it more hands-on for users. The Lelit Anna, while also not offering an integrated grinder, includes a boiler pressure gauge and solenoid valve, and it allows for hot water. However, it lacks pre-infusion capabilities and has a steam wand, providing basic features suitable for beginners as they learn the art of espresso making.
