Machine Overview

The Lelit Grace is priced at $652 and is designed for beginners, making it an accessible option for those new to brewing espresso. In contrast, the Rancilio Silvia Pro X is priced at $1940 and targets intermediate users who have some experience in making espresso. The substantial price difference indicates that the Silvia Pro X may offer more advanced capabilities suited for those seeking a refined experience.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, the Lelit Grace operates with a button activation and features a single boiler with a heat-up time of 5-15 minutes. It utilizes a vibration pump and has a group type designated as Lelit57. On the other hand, the Rancilio Silvia Pro X uses a rocker switch for activation, is equipped with a dual boiler, and also has a similar heat-up time of 5-15 minutes, but boasts a saturated group type.

Features Comparison

The key features of the Lelit Grace include auto shutoff, PID control with degree control, pre-infusion, and a shot timer, but it lacks dual PID control and steam pressure gauge. In contrast, the Rancilio Silvia Pro X also offers auto shutoff, PID control, and pre-infusion, but it has the added benefits of concurrent brew and steam capabilities, dual PID control, and an over-pressure valve, enhancing its versatility for intermediate users.
