Two Boilers
Both coffee makers are dual boiler machines. In general, water used for milk steaming has to be hotter than the water used for coffee brewing. In a dual boiler machine while one boiler heats the water for coffee brewing the other boiler heats the water for milk steaming and since these two proccesses require different temperatures dual boiler machines are faster as both boilers work simultaneously whereas the single boiler ones have to wait between steaming and brewing sessions.
Two Coffee Bean Hoppers
Jura Giga X8 has two hoppers for storing two types of coffee at the same time. You can create a unique blend by mixing coffee from both hoppers with variable proportions.
