EspressoBot Comparison

Machine Overview

The Profitec Pro 800 is a high-end espresso machine with a MSRP of $3,049 and is targeted toward advanced users. In contrast, the Xenia Espresso Dual Boiler comes at a lower price of $2,500 and is designed for intermediate skill levels. Both machines are semi-automatic, but their price points and target user experience differ significantly.

Brewing Comparison

In terms of brewing information, the Profitec Pro 800 utilizes a lever activation method with a heat exchanger as the primary heating element, taking over 30 minutes to heat up. On the other hand, the Xenia Dual Boiler features a button activation with a dual boiler system, allowing for a quicker heat-up time of 5-15 minutes. The Profitec has a larger steam boiler capacity of 3.5 liters compared to the 1.7 liters of the Xenia. Both machines have a vibration pump and utilize a 58mm portafilter.

Features Comparison

When it comes to key features, the Profitec Pro 800 includes PID control, pre-infusion, and a steam pressure gauge, but lacks a boiler pressure gauge. Conversely, the Xenia espresso machine is equipped with both gauges and also has dual PID control. While both machines have features such as concurrent brew steam and a hot water function, the Profitec has a no-burn steam wand, while the Xenia does not. These differences highlight the unique specifications and capabilities of each machine.
