Models

Decent DE1

DE1PRO

The DE1PRO is our most compact model, giving you everything you need to pull a truly Decent espresso.

Decent DE1

DE1XL DE1XXL

DE1XL shares the same internals as DE1PRO. The difference is that it features a sleek back panel that hide every cable and it can be countersunk into your counter.

The DE1XXL also features the back panel and could be countersunk. More importantly, it comes with a more powerful 2200W heater, so it steams faster and holds higher brewing temperatures at a consistently faster flow rate.

Features

DE1 shared features

Decent Espresso shot

Excellent espresso across all DE1 models

Every DE1 shares the same brewing components, with just one difference — the DE1XXL's more powerful heater delivers greater shot-to-shot temperature stability, ideal for busy environments.

What makes Decent machines special?

Fast warm-up

No need to heat up your machine early just for one cup of coffee.

From cold to ready to brew, DE1 machines let you enjoy your coffee in under three minutes, all thanks to our boiler-free heater design.

Decent Decaid app

Continuous improvement

The DE1 only gets better with time.

From the addition of the grouphead control buttons to the slide-in tablet stand, the DE1 has become more convenient over the years.

The coffee keeps getting better too. Our R&D efforts led to a redesigned grouphead and two shower screens that deliver excellent water distribution.

What's upgraded

Decent Profiling Streamline

App-powered profiling

All of our machines are powered by our classic DE1app and our next-generation Decaid software which unlocks more powerful functions, skins, and plug-ins.

Straight out of the box, our software includes a large collection of built-in profiles designed for different beans and beverage types.

You can even create your own profile in either app, modulating every phase to have its own temperature, flow, or pressure.

Decent Decaid app

12 bar | 8ml/s

Enough flexibility to set the brew pressure up to 12 bar, though you'll typically brew at 9 bar or lower.

The maximum flow rate is 8ml/s, allowing for a fast pre-infusion.

Decent Decaid app

Samsung A11 tablet

The machine comes with an 8.7" Samsung tablet.

Our apps also support iOS, Windows, and Linux devices if you prefer your own devices.

Quality build

We put every machine through extensive stress tests, ensuring it can withstand wear and tear even at a commercial level.

And because your experience matters, your machine comes with a renewable two-year warranty.

Decent Decaid app

Ceramic water tank

We chose porcelain for both the water tank and the drip tray because it's easy to clean, food-safe, and dishwasher-safe.

An optional lid is available for the 2-litre tank.

Decent Luggage

Comes in a suitcase

Your DE1 arrives in its own custom-designed, high-impact black suitcase.

It keeps your DE1 safe on arrival and lets you take it anywhere with ease.

Decent DE1

Scale compatibility

DE1 models connect to Bluetooth scales, letting you record espresso yield and stop the shot at a more accurate weight.

Our Half Decent Scale is built to work with the DE1, giving you a steady connection and accurate weight readings.

Never out of steam

Decent machine uses a heater system that generates steam on demand, unlike traditional steam boilers, which rely on steam generated and stored in advance. After warming up, it can steam as long as there is water in the tank (which could also be automatically refilled).

You can customize your steaming experience by adjusting the steam flow rate to control how fast or dry the steam is.

A higher flow rate allows for faster steaming, but because it uses more water, the resulting steam may be wetter.

Decent Hot Water Dispenser

Hot water dispenser

Your DE1 comes with a hot water dispenser. Just choose the temperature and volume you want for the perfect Americano.

Decent Decaid app

110V or 220V

The DE1PRO and DE1XL come in 110V or 220V versions (suitable for 100V–130V/200V–250V environments). The DE1XXL is 220V only.

Every model supports 50Hz and 60Hz power, works with all worldwide voltages and plugs, and is certified to UL and CE safety standards.

240V in the USA.

While it makes silky smooth milk, the Bengle steam wand with a 3-hole tip upgrade offers faster steaming and better maneuverability.

The back panel of the DE1PRO is exposed and shows the power cables and pipes.

DE1XL
DE1XXL

DE1XXL

Higher power, more benefits

Same sleek appearance

The DE1XXL has the same size and appearance as the DE1XL. That means it also features a sleek back panel and fits perfectly in our countersunk design.

2200W heater

The only major hardware difference between the DE1XL and the DE1XXL is a more powerful heater.

The DE1XXL is equipped with a 2200W heater, allowing for more powerful heating performance.

Faster steam

The DE1XXL also features the upgraded XL steam wand, but this model comes with a 3-hole tip by default.

The higher power allows it to steam faster and produce drier steam, which is especially useful in a commercial setting and helps preserve the milk's rich, creamy flavor.

Better temperature stability

With a more powerful heater, the DE1XXL is better able to sustain temperature at a higher flow rate and offers improved cup-to-cup temperature consistency in busy settings.
