EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

Machine 1, the Lelit Victoria, is priced at $1,099 and is designed for beginners. In contrast, Machine 2, the Turin Legato, comes at a more affordable price of $499 while also catering to a beginner skill level. Both machines are classified as semi-automatic espresso machines and offer a suitable entry point for users looking to start their espresso-making journey.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing capabilities, the Lelit Victoria features a brass boiler with a brew boiler capacity of 0.3 liters and a heat-up time ranging from 5 to 15 minutes. Meanwhile, the Turin Legato employs a stainless steel boiler with a somewhat larger brew boiler capacity of 0.5 liters and boasts a faster heat-up time of less than 5 minutes. Both machines utilize a single boiler heating element and have a vibration pump type, with the Lelit using a chrome-plated brass brew group material while the Turin does not specify its brew group material. Each machine has a water reservoir as the source, with the Victoria offering a 2.5-liter capacity compared to the Legato's 1.7 liters.

Features Comparison

When it comes to features, the Lelit Victoria is equipped with an auto shutoff function and a boiler pressure gauge, while the Turin Legato lacks the auto shutoff but also includes a boiler pressure gauge and shares several other features like PID control and pre-infusion. Both machines provide hot water functionality, shot timers, solenoid valves, and steam wands for frothing. However, the Legato does not have an over-pressure valve, which the Victoria does include, adding a level of safety to the brewing process. Overall, both machines come with similar foundational features, with slight variations catering to user preferences and price points.
