Borbone Didi Espresso Machine
I love the Borbone Didi Espresso machine! Its small and compact design makes it perfect for my kitchen — it doesn't take up any room on my counter, which is a huge plus. Getting it up and running for the first time was incredibly simple. I was impressed by how quickly it heats up, getting hot in seconds after turning on and it is very easy to operate. I’ve paired it with Borbone pods, and the taste is amazing. Overall, this machine is a fantastic addition for anyone looking for convenience, speed, and great espresso quality in a small package.

Better than Breville
After a lot of research — and even purchasing a $1,500 and $3,000 Breville machine — I ultimately decided to go with this espresso machine for my small café. I was warned that if you pull more than about 20 shots a day the heating elements might wear out sooner, but honestly… I’m willing to ride it out because I LOVE this machine that much. We’re not using their ESE pods, so I can’t comment on those. Instead, we’re using Lavazza Gran Espresso Intenso, and the espresso that comes out is fantastic. The pressure is right on point, it's easy and the extraction is better than the much more expensive Breville machine we tested. For a small café setup, this machine has been a great performer. The espresso is rich, consistent, and delicious. So far it’s been an excellent choice and I’m very happy with the results.
