Cool!!! - Kat
ReplyDeleteI just ordered the Delonghi Eco310 and I hope that I will be satisfied with the coffee! I have to admit that you helped me very much, with the tutorials, the reviews and this comparing!! Thank you sooo much!! :):):)
ReplyDeleteGail: "These are the DeLonghi Soldiers!" lol
ReplyDeleteCool! :D - Kat
ReplyDeleteThey are all small boilers - Kat
ReplyDeleteSmall boilers, yes - Kat
ReplyDeleteWe only sell one Krups machine - Kat
ReplyDeleteCan u do the same for krups?
ReplyDeleteAll boilers, no thermoblocs among them?
ReplyDeleteKat, are you certain these machines are all single boilers? I would imagine the lower end ones heat on thermoblocks?
ReplyDeleteI considered DeLonghi when I was shopping for my current espresso machine. I wasn't impressed with the build quality on the cheaper ones (stocked at a local retailer) and couldn't find enough info on the more expensive ones to convince me to buy -- so I bought a Via Venezia. As I approach the first anniversary of that purchase, I am thankful to have found the SCG channel and web store to help me make better decisions in the future. (Smart Grinder etc.)
ReplyDeleteim sure you have a lot of those portafilters laying around i'd like to hear your thoughts on the depressurzeing mod. i know you wont do it on video due to legal stuff. but say a comment or maybe in the discription on your side by side video?
ReplyDelete:D
ReplyDeleteWe're going to do some testing because I haven't done a lot of side by side, just used them all at different times and didn't notice any real benefit other than different / more expensive case materials as you went up in price. But we are going to experiment with them to see if there are any practical differences in their performance.
ReplyDeleteYes - thank you for sharing your experiences with this! :) - Kat
ReplyDelete"You'll never use the single anyway" ... SO TRUE, Gail!
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think about the quality of the espresso between those machines kat?
ReplyDeleteis it still "you get what you pay for" or maybe there's not so much different espresso quality between those small machine? :D
i'm just curious is it the higher price only for the better model(with the same espresso quality)?
actually i have the ec 155 and in my country, Indonesia, it's sold little bit expensive, around 1.9 million Rupias or around 200$ in US Dollar :(
thanks a lot for this great comparison video :)
It is rather cute! :) - Kat
ReplyDeletei own the ec330 looks like a cross of the 702 and 310bk and as you know i made my portafilter un pressurized by cutting off the little spring loaded plunger and now it pulls exponentially better shots. (still cowpie's due to no 3 way valve) the pumps arnt strong enough to push a proper espresso grind through the pressurized filter so you have to take it really coarse. so not to clog it up.
ReplyDeletethe k-miX one is my favorate :)
