EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Lelit Victoria espresso machine is priced at $1,099 and caters to beginner users, making it a suitable entry-level choice. In contrast, the Bezzera DUO DE, with a higher price of $2,969, targets advanced users who are likely more experienced in espresso preparation. Both machines are semi-automatic, but their price points and skill level focus significantly differ.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, the Lelit Victoria features a button activation and uses a single boiler with a brass construction. Its brewing boiler capacity is 0.3 liters, while the Bezzera DUO DE operates with a dual boiler system utilizing copper for improved heat retention, boasting a larger brewing boiler capacity of 0.4 liters. The Lelit has a heat up time of 5-15 minutes, unlike the Bezzera which takes longer, between 15-30 minutes, to reach optimal brewing temperatures. Both machines have similar portafilter sizes at 58 mm but differ in pump types, with the Lelit utilizing a vibration pump and the Bezzera using a rotary pump.

Features Comparison

Both machines have a set of noteworthy features. The Lelit Victoria includes PID control, pre-infusion, a shot timer, and an auto shutoff feature, but lacks a steam pressure gauge and concurrent brew steam capability. On the other hand, the Bezzera DUO DE is equipped with advanced features such as a steam pressure gauge, concurrent brew steam functionality, flow control, and a dual PID control system. Additionally, the Bezzera offers a no-burn steam wand and both machines are designed with solenoid valves and overpressure valves for safer operation.
