View this machineWhat differs
- The Authentic C50 is €28.83 cheaper.
- Both are the same kind of machine, a portafilter machine, so they work the same way.
- Neither has a grinder. Budget for a separate one with both, and for a sum that comes close to the machine itself.
- Milk works the same on both: with a steam wand you control yourself.
- Cleaning the milk system is the same on both: after every use, a short burst of steam or water and a wipe with a damp cloth.
