Overview
The Decent DE1+ is the entry point into the Decent Espresso ecosystem, offering the same revolutionary pressure and flow profiling technology as the more expensive models at a more accessible price point. The DE1+ uses the same precision gear pump and thermoblock heating system that allows real-time control of pressure, flow rate, and temperature during extraction — capabilities that no other machine at this price point can match. Connected to the Decent tablet app, it displays live extraction graphs and supports the full library of community-shared profiles. The main differences from the PRO model are cosmetic finishes and some internal component specifications, but the core brewing capability is identical. The DE1+ heats up in approximately 20 seconds, weighs just 9 kg, and has a compact footprint that fits easily on any counter. The machine can replicate extraction profiles from traditional lever machines, spring-loaded groups, or modern pressure profiling systems. For the coffee enthusiast who is more interested in what is in the cup than in premium finishes, the DE1+ offers an extraordinary value proposition — bringing genuine next-generation espresso technology to a broader audience.
The Decent DE1+ comes equipped with PID temperature control for precise brewing, pre-infusion for even extraction, pressure profiling for advanced shot manipulation, flow control for barista-level precision. It features a thermoblock boiler system made of stainless steel with a 10 ml capacity. The gear pump delivers 9.0 bars of pressure for optimal extraction.
Priced at $2,999, the Decent DE1+ is designed for dedicated prosumers who demand professional-grade equipment. As a semi-automatic machine, it gives you control over the brewing process while handling pressure and temperature automatically.
In terms of build quality, the Decent DE1+ is a substantial machine, weighing in at 9.0 kg, manufactured in Canada, drawing 1200W of power. With dimensions of 270 x 370 x 370 mm (W×D×H), make sure you have adequate counter space. The built-in water reservoir holds 1000 ml, making it easy to set up anywhere in your kitchen.
