Pick the 5th mid-range espresso machine
Added 2020-07-29 09:13:13 +0000 UTCHi all,
I'm currently wrapping up shopping for the next round of espresso machine testing.
We're in the up to £500 category. The question is - what are we missing? Please comment, and also heart/like comments to vote them up if someone has mentioned your pick already!
Currently in the lineup:
- Gaggia Classic Pro
- Rancilio Silvia E
- Lelit Anna (I'd have gone for the Gloria but I cannot find one in stock anywhere)
- Delonghi Dedica (a bit out of its league but it has been so heavily requested!)
I feel like I'm missing something obvious, but the requirements should also be that it is not built to order/is broadly available with reasonable global distribution.
I'm leaning towards the Sage/Breville Duo Temp Pro (£379) but if there's anything else obvious then let me know. I'd really like to keep it to 5, but could stretch to 6. (I'm also thinking that there might be a longer cut I could put up for Patreon backers, because these videos easily get pretty big!)
EDIT: For clarity - the four machines listed have been purchased. Also, I'll be reviewing the La Pavoni Europiccola in its own video as part of the Classics of Coffee series.
