EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Profitec Move is priced at $1999, targeting intermediate users who desire a higher degree of control and features for their espresso-making process. In contrast, the Profitec Go is offered at a more accessible price of $1059, making it an ideal choice for beginners looking for quality and value in their first espresso machine. Both machines are produced by the same brand, Profitec, renowned for its commitment to quality espresso equipment.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing capabilities, the Profitec Move features a dual boiler system with a saturated group type, allowing for simultaneous brewing and steaming, while also having a heat-up time ranging from 5 to 15 minutes. On the other hand, the Profitec Go utilizes a single boiler with a ring group type, equipped with a similar heat-up time of 5 to 15 minutes but lacks the capacity for concurrent brew and steam. The Move has a brew boiler capacity of 0.325 liters, while the Go has a slightly smaller capacity of 0.4 liters. Both machines utilize vibration pump technology and support a 58 mm portafilter.

Features Comparison

When considering key features, the Profitec Move includes advanced elements like dual PID control, pre-infusion, and steam pressure gauge, enhancing the user’s brewing experience. Meanwhile, the Profitec Go retains some essential features like PID control and shot timer but lacks a steam pressure gauge and concurrent brew and steam functionality. Both machines share some features such as auto shutoff, solenoid valve, steam wand, and no-burn wand, ensuring safety and convenience during operation. However, the Move caters to a more skilled audience with additional functionalities that assert higher customizability during the brewing process.
