There are varying grades and types of plastic. Some are very expensive. Same as how ceramic is cheap and porcelain (which is ceramic) is expensive as hell.
Not only that, most of the time the tampers are 1 or 2 mm smaller than the basket so your grounds squeeze out from the sides. I swear, manufacturers do it just for the laugh.
I don’t know if that’s necessarily what they originally made it for. I think they were just making a more “affordable” espresso machine for those that want high-quality espresso/espresso based drinks at home. The commercial size machines are overkill for any person who wants it at home you know ?
@@CertifiedSlamboy correct, I’m not even in a good industry but after filing bankruptcy I penny pinch where I can and I could definitely afford this. Rent is low, no payments minus my phone/service, I ride a bike to work so no car/gas/insurance.

I would love be able to afford this but I love my Dedica and it’s been pulling kickass shots for 6 years straight. I even made a video. ruclips.net/video/pGe0bw1lXPw/видео.html
On further examination of the comments it looks like people really really don't understand foreign exchange rates. Imagine if he was quoting this machines cost in Indonesian Rupiah. People would be losing their minds..😮 what do you mean 61 million for a coffee machine? It's only $3900 in the US!! 😂
Have you removed the water reservoir for cleaning or dumping water? Is there a easy way. Hose seems like it would wear over time if constantly removed.
the sum of these parts is like 500 bucks max. i understand the development, and the need to make a profit but yeah you don’t need to make 3k profit off anything
Does this machine produce better coffee than a normal consumer grade machine? I'm sure the user experience is on another level. But let's say you get a delonghi Dedica against this and put them side by side; Get the same beans and do the same puck prep, will the La Marzoco produce a better-tasting cup? Might be a fun video idea "200$ vs 6000$ espresso machine"
You will not be able to tell the difference from a $600 machine and this machine if pulled right. The machine is as good as the barista that is using it. Don’t be fooled by price
And like a Ferrari you only buy this if you have a ton of money that you don’t know where to spend it on. My GCP makes perfect Espresso. But if I ever have a million dollars lying around I’ll buy either this or the Mini.
@@NilsBruch I think my second question is how much better is this than a Breville Dual Boiler? From what I've hard that heats up very quickly and produces a very good cup though it is an "appliance".
@@thru_and_thruLelit, ECM, Rocket, Profitec made on same one factory in Italy. Sometimes in Germany. Great machines. Price are still mad for home though. You buy story and emotions. 🥴 2000€ is not adequate. Its just metal, pump and boiler. Multi platform, mass production... they treat us for idiots. But, so far there is demand you know...
Im sure you get the premium you pay for cuz these things are basically tanks but lots of alternatives with more features at a lower pricepoint. Im guessing you pay for build, design, and commercial power. Its a shame it has no pressure profiling and direct temp adjustment ( you need an app for that and wifi so no wifi no temp adjustment). For the price you pay better off buying e61 machines with pressure profiling or a premium lever machine
Big famous brand in espresso industry, and they reach out to most of the famous coffee related youtubers as marketing campaign. (Unlike their other products) maybe that's why the price is high.
@@randomchannel323 Yea, I know that but they can’t replicate a drink made on a machine like this. It’s night and day different. There are also cheaper semi-auto machines, too, that can make good drinks like this machine.
Re saying a previous comment if you are living in an apartment with limited space you can’t afford that espresso maker 😂😂 rich people are so out of tune trying to pitch things to non rich people 😂😂😂😭
Never is this thing ready after 5 minutes. Nothing is heated up in that time. Maybe it produces steam but the components are not hot. This matches with what reviews say already. The plastic also does not hold heat as well, so that is also a disadvantage ..
Nothing like this is worth even half of what it is supposed to cost. For that same price you can buy an international round trip flight for two people.
If you have 6k dollars to blow on an espresso machine...you aint buying that. If you have a small apartment with limited counter space...you aint buying that.
Breville is banned from my house, when it arrived in usa, got three Breville items ( about $600+ at the time), all garbage, called customer service & arrogantly told me: return it & buy another brand. Thank you, just needed your permission! Absolutely NO Breville for me.
11/10 not worth 6 grand. Here's a question for ya, at what point in your life did you begin to think 6 grand was an acceptable amount to spend on a coffee machine?
For what this is designed to do less thermal mass is desirable. The Micra pulls a good shot after 5 minutes of heat up. Larger machines take much longer (20-30mins).
I love that "high tech polymer" is the new phrase for plastic
Well, they must find reasons to pick 6000$ from your pocket :)
bruh dont reveal the marketing technique like that 😅
There are varying grades and types of plastic. Some are very expensive. Same as how ceramic is cheap and porcelain (which is ceramic) is expensive as hell.
I eat h a lot of air rifle reviews and theyctoo have many names for plastic gun stocks like synthetic and dense composite polymer.
Nothing says worth $6k like pouring your coffee over plastic
I like when I get takeout food and they give me high tech polymer utensils!
Good one 😂
6k dollar espresso machine, hey let’s give u the dinkiest tamper ever
No one buying this doesn't already have a better tamper.
@@Adam-vx6tobut it’s amazing that for 6k they don’t throw in a 150$ tamper with it

It's made of 100% high tech polymer!

Yes and no... Say you live in a small but fancy NYC apartment. You can afford it but you're probably eating out and don't have a lot of counter space.

La Marzocco is now part of DeLonghi, go figure.
Clever marketing spin to reframe the use of more plastic in the construction.
Could you use this for a coffee business? Maybe a coffee cart style business
I'm still trying to understand why it should worth more than 2k.... No flow control or something special...
For this price I would rather buy a Descent DE1 ….
for half the price you mean :P but I'd rather have both, Decent for experiments, and this "little" guy for aesthetics and steaming
Its actually $3900, he is mistaking the line mini which is $5900
@@josduartsno he’s not mistaken. He’s quoting the AUD price. In Australia the Micra costs $6,000 AUD and the mini costs $8,500 AUD.

“Perfect for apartment living” bro if i can afford that im not living in an apartment 😂😂
You lucky bastard! Love your content.
My question is how long do I have to go without eating to afford this machine 😂
Just like a Ferrari, I look at this machine in awe while saving up to buy a Breville Bambino Plus.
Bambino plus still goes hard 🙌🏻
Ha! Exactly. My friend just bought the Linea Mini. My budget is more Breville under 1k.
So cute the video !!!. I loved La Marzocco and you’re right !!!. It’s like a Ferrari of the espresso machine !!!.

Hi I wanted to ask what accessories you recommend getting, this would be my first espresso machine.
Have you removed the water reservoir for cleaning or dumping water? Is there a easy way. Hose seems like it would wear over time if constantly removed.

If your complaining about the price it ain’t for you.
Is it easy if I want to pull hot water for a cup of tea?
Looks almost exactly like my $70 rig
If you live in a small small apt do you really have 6000 for this?

Almost always the difference is in consistency. You _can_ get the same tasting cup from the delonghi but how often will you be able to match it varies

Is it really better than a Lelit Bianca V3 or Profitec Pro 700?
it's definitely not, it just has the massive brand recognition that a lot of people want. The Lelit is a savage and so is the profitec.
In terms of energy consumption, heat up time and thermal stability it is much better.
Depends if you are using pressure profiles. If yes I would just get Sanremo, Decent

Your video is the one I was looking for, thank you for lifting it 😂😂
Sure it's a good machine but at that price I'm going with a fully automatic larger espresso machine lol
An automatic machine wouldn’t be able to make a latte as good as this one.

No it doesn't. Because the temperature pluments after 6-7 shots back to back. For a tiny coffee shop the Linea mini would be the one to go

5 minutes to heat up!?, meanwhile laughs in 3sec Babino plus ready for £380
