The verdict
Why it scored a 82
Rancilio's flagship home machine — dual independent boilers and a touchscreen PID crammed into a home-sized unit, with direct-plumb capability for anyone building out a real home bar. Quality scores a 95, the highest of any espresso machine in the lineup; value is naturally the softest number at more than three times the Barista Express's price.
