The Curated Take

By the Expert Community

This espresso machine is a fantastic option for those who want to brew and steam simultaneously but don’t necessarily need the power or price of a dual boiler setup. The Steel Duo uses two thermocoils to heat the brew path and steam sections separately.

In addition to this steaming feature, the Steel Duo also features great programmability using the toggle switches on the front of the machine.

Great looks, great build quality, and even working lights for the brewing area round out why this is often one of my most Curated machines!

Ideal for
  • Brew and steam at the same time
  • Programmable shot volumes
  • Great looks and build quality
Not ideal for
  • Slightly slower steaming than heat exchangers

James is great!!
5 /5
I didn't realize what curated was when I happened upon it at 11 at night one day. I was matched with James who immediately made me a video describing the differences between a couple grinders, and helped me make a decision. I found another grinder on sale and he price matched it for me instantly. So grateful for the help, and so grateful I could come back to make my purchase through curated. 10/10 experience. James was so kind and helpful:)

I've been looking at Brevilla espresso machines for a few years but they are so expensive. I tried researching myself to read about the differences in machines to no avail. I even tried contacting Breville multiple times to learn about the differences in machines so that I can choose which machine would work best for me. Thank goodness I googled "How to choose an espresso machine" and the curated site came up. I had never heard of Curated. I got a coffee angel expert Matthew online. Oh my goodness - he educated me so much on the espresso machine, the processes, bean grinding. He followed up with me multiple times. When he contacted me today I immediately placed an order for 2 machines: 1 for me and 1 for a gift. Never would I have made these purchases if not for Matthew. Now I know about curated - I will reach out when I need help. AMAZING service and EXPERT ADVICE!!!! Thanks Matthew!!!!!!

Justin was great to work with! Incredibly knowledgeable in the coffee field, as he helped me navigate my way to a great espresso grinder at a good price point. Justin was very quick to respond to any of my many questions and provided me with thorough videos explaining his recommendations. I would definitely reach out to Justin in the future if I have any concerns or questions about my grinder I just bought. Couldn't recommend Justin enough!

Michael was wonderful to chat with and so helpful. I feel confident in my purchase and am also thrilled that when it’s time to get everything set up I can chat with him again! He was so easy to talk to and made me feel valued as a customer. Very approachable which helps me feel confident and comfortable reaching out to him in the future. Our conversation was far from robotic - we were able to chit chat organically while also discussing my needs / him providing information. 10/10 experience!
