Machine Overview

The Lelit Elizabeth is priced at $1,799 and is designed for intermediate users, while the Profitec Pro 800 costs $3,049 and caters to advanced users. Both machines are classified as semi-automatic, appealing to those who prefer some level of control over the brewing process. The difference in price and skill level indicates that the Profitec Pro 800 might offer more advanced features suitable for skilled baristas.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, the Lelit Elizabeth operates with a button activation, features brass boilers, and has a dual boiler setup with a heat-up time of 15-30 minutes. In contrast, the Profitec Pro 800 uses a lever for activation and primarily features a heat exchanger with a longer heat-up time of over 30 minutes. The dimensions of their respective water reservoirs differ, with the Lelit providing 2.5 liters compared to Profitec's 3.5 liters. Both machines come equipped with a 58mm portafilter.

Features Comparison

When looking at key features, both machines have an auto shutoff and hot water feature, but they differ in specific elements. The Lelit Elizabeth includes a boiler pressure gauge and dual PID control, while the Profitec Pro 800 boasts a steam pressure gauge and flow control capabilities. Each machine features pre-infusion, shot timers, and no-burn steam wands, emphasizing their commitment to user safety and optimal espresso extraction. However, the inclusion of solenoid valves in the Lelit Elizabeth is not mirrored in the Profitec Pro 800.
