I was all set to start saving for a Brewtus II - I like the dual boiler idea. And then I figured "hey, wouldn't it be cool to have a machine where you just pressed the button & got the right volume of water". My sights shifted a bit.
I just read that Reneka are stopping production of the Techno and Renee at justespresso.com is selling them for €1295. No way can I buy one now. But if I could, what're the differences between the Reneka Techno, La Spaziale S1 & the La Cimbali Junior DT1? And what other machines are there in this sort of price bracket?
My "ideal" machine? automatic, rotary, single grouphead, plumbed in, dual boiler.
