If you are serious about brewing great coffee at home, a reliable espresso machine is a must. But with so many options out there, choosing the right one can be daunting. That is where Eureka’s new domestic range comes in – a sleek, Italian-designed line-up that caters to both beginners and budding home baristas.
Whether you want something simple and affordable or you are chasing professional-grade features, there is something in this range for every kind of coffee lover. Let us take a look at the four standout models: Pura, Pura R, Costanza, and Costanza R – and help you decide which one fits your style and expectations.
For Simplicity and Affordability: Pura
The Eureka Pura is designed with the entry-level home barista in mind. It keeps things simple – no unnecessary bells or whistles – and instead focuses on ease of use, durability, and affordability.
You can plug it in and start brewing straight out of the box – no configuration needed.
Built with a stainless steel body and metal base, it feels sturdy and reliable.
It uses a vibration pump, which is noisier than its more premium siblings, and it lacks a PID system, so you cannot adjust the brew temperature.
Still, if you want a solid, well-built espresso machine without spending a fortune, the Pura is a fantastic starting point.
For Quieter Brewing with Style: Pura R
Step up to the Pura R and you will notice a few thoughtful improvements. Most notably, it swaps out the vibration pump for a rotary pump – this makes it much quieter and offers smoother pressure control, which helps deliver more consistent espresso shots.
You also get some aesthetic freedom here. The Pura R can be customised with side panels in wood or colour finishes like walnut, black, or red – a nice touch if you want your machine to match your kitchen vibe.
In short, the Pura R delivers the same simplicity as the original Pura, but adds a touch of refinement in both looks and performance.
For Precision Brewing: Costanza
Now we are getting serious. The Costanza brings a professional edge to home brewing, starting with PID temperature control – a feature that allows for more precise temperature management and ultimately more consistent flavour in your shots.
It also includes a few digital extras: a shot timer, weekly programming, and eco mode for energy saving. This makes it ideal for users who want more control over their coffee routine, without overcomplicating the process.
The trade-off? It still uses a vibration pump, so it is not as quiet or refined in pressure delivery as the rotary models. But for most home users chasing better coffee, that will be a small compromise.
For the Best of Everything: Costanza R
The Costanza R takes everything that makes the Costanza great – precision controls, advanced features, and user-friendly design – and adds a rotary pump for quieter operation and superior shot consistency.
Like the Pura R, it can also be customised with wooden and colour panels, making it the most stylish and feature-rich model in the range.
This is Eureka’s top-tier domestic machine – ideal for those who want commercial-grade performance at home, with no compromises on sound, style, or shot quality.
The Verdict: Which One Should You Choose?
Pura – Best for beginners or budget-conscious users who want a quality espresso machine with no fuss.
Pura R – A great middle ground: same simplicity, but quieter operation and customisable aesthetics.
Costanza – Perfect for those who want to dial in better flavour with digital features and precise temperature control.
Costanza R – The premium pick for serious home baristas who want all the features, the quietest operation, and a machine that looks as good as it performs.
