Machine Overview

The Lelit Bianca V3 is priced at $3199.95, catering to an advanced skill level of users. In contrast, the Diletta Bello+ is more affordable, with a price of $1899, aimed at users with an intermediate skill level. Both machines are classified as semi-automatic, but the Lelit targets a more experienced user base.

Brewing Comparison

When it comes to brewing information, both machines utilize a lever activation method. The Lelit Bianca V3 features a dual boiler system with a 15-30 minute heat-up time and a brew group made of chrome-plated brass. Conversely, the Diletta Bello+ is equipped with a heat exchanger and has a shorter heat-up time of 5-15 minutes, along with a similar chrome-plated brass brew group. The Lelit has a steam boiler capacity of 1.5L, while the Diletta's steam boiler capacity is larger at 1.8L.

Features Comparison

In terms of features, both machines boast auto shutoff, boiler pressure gauges, steam pressure gauges, and hot water availability. The Lelit Bianca V3 includes more advanced options, such as concurrent brew and steam functionality, flow control, and dual PID control. On the other hand, the Diletta Bello+ lacks flow control and dual PID control but does maintain many other desirable features like pre-infusion and a no-burn steam wand. Therefore, while both machines are easy to operate, the Lelit is designed for users who appreciate more technical control over their brewing process.
