Machine Overview

Machine 1, the Lelit Elizabeth, is priced at $1,799 and is aimed at intermediate users. Machine 2, the Lucca A53 Direct Plumb, has a higher MSRP of $2,595 and is designed for advanced skill levels. Both machines are classified as semi-automatic, catering to home baristas looking for control over their brewing process.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing specifications, the Lelit Elizabeth has a heating element made of dual boilers, with a heat-up time ranging between 15 to 30 minutes. Its group type is Lelit58 and utilizes a vibration pump, while the steam boiler capacity is 0.6 liters. Conversely, the Lucca A53 employs dual boilers as well, but features a saturated group type and has a quicker heat-up time of 5 to 15 minutes. This machine uses a rotary pump and has a larger steam boiler capacity of 1.2 liters.

Features Comparison

Feature-wise, both machines are equipped with automatic shutoff, PID control, and pre-infusion capabilities. The Lelit Elizabeth includes gauges for boiler pressure and a shot timer but lacks a steam pressure gauge, whereas the Lucca A53 has both boiler and steam pressure gauges but does not include a shot timer. Additionally, the Lucca A53 offers smart connectivity, which is absent in the Lelit Elizabeth. Both machines feature steam wands with no-burn technology, enhancing safety during operation.
