Machine Overview

The Londinium R24 and Londinium Compressa both belong to the semi-automatic category and are designed for advanced users. The R24 has a higher price point of $3,858 MSRP compared to $2,515 for the Compressa. Despite the price difference, both models highlight the Londinium brand's focus on quality and performance, tailored for skilled baristas looking for control and precision in their brewing processes.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, both machines are activated by lever and feature a copper boiler material. The R24 utilizes a rotary pump while the Compressa employs a vibration pump. Both machines share the same steam boiler capacity of 2.3 liters and a heat-up time of 15-30 minutes, and they both connect directly to a water source, eliminating the need for a water reservoir.

Features Comparison

When it comes to features, both models offer concurrent brew steam functionality and flow control, along with hot water dispensing capabilities. The R24 does not have a no-burn wand, while the Compressa does, making it potentially safer to use. Additionally, both machines lack integrated grinders, PID control, and automatic shutoff functionalities, keeping them focused on manual brewing techniques for espresso enthusiasts.
