Machine Overview

The Londinium R24, priced at $3,858, is designed for advanced users, whereas the Diletta Mio is more accessible at $1,299, making it suitable for intermediate skill levels. Both machines are semi-automatic, but the stark difference in price reflects the R24's more specialized features and performance capabilities.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, the Londinium R24 utilizes a manual lever activation with a heat exchanger for its primary heating element, taking 15 to 30 minutes to heat up. In contrast, the Diletta Mio features button activation and employs a single boiler with a thermoblock heating system, requiring only 5 to 15 minutes to reach optimal temperature. The R24 has a steam boiler capacity of 2.3 liters and requires a direct water connection, while the Mio relies on a 2-liter reservoir.

Features Comparison

Both machines offer some notable features, but they differ in specific functionalities. The R24 includes pre-infusion and concurrent brewing and steaming but lacks PID control and any auto shutoff feature. Conversely, the Diletta Mio comes with PID controls, an auto shutoff function, and a boiler pressure gauge but does not provide concurrent brewing and steaming. Both machines have a steam wand and pre-infusion capabilities, which enhance their overall espresso-making experience.
