Dual Boiler
across 5 reviews
4.5/5
divided
Reviewers praise
  • Dual PID temperature control with a heated group head delivers consistent, stable brew temperatures with no temperature surfing required
  • Very dry steam produces high-quality, café-rivalling milk texture
  • Unusually quick heat-up time for a dual boiler machine
Reviewers push back
  • New machines can impart a rubbery, plastic taste to steamed milk for a month or more until internal tubing is fully conditioned
  • The 58 mm basket and fast pump reward precise puck prep — poor distribution causes channelling and frustrates users transitioning from more forgiving machines
  • Three-hole steam wand takes adjustment for those used to a single-hole tip, leaving less margin to correct milk-texturing errors
Reviewers broadly agree the Dual Boiler is an exceptional home espresso machine, praising its temperature stability, dry steam, and pre-infusion control, with only minor ergonomic and break-in niggles.
— best for: Home enthusiasts who want commercial-grade temperature precision and genuine simultaneous brew-and-steam capability, and who are willing to invest time in learning proper puck preparation.

I have been using it for a year and I can tell you with confidence that it will change your mornings in a way that you have never experienced before. The thought of getting out of the bed, going straight at this Miele machine and produce your perfect cup of fresh grind coffee is amazing. I love to make coffee for my kids the way they like them.

I bought the dual boiler over two years ago now and it has been used daily ever since for amazing flat white's in a morning. There's not a lot to dislike about this machine - gets upto temperature quickly, pulls great shots & foams the milk to perfection. The only issue is running the descale cycle can cause the steam wand to stop working so I don't bother anymore, opting to use the filter instead Jonathan · sageappliances.com
