There is a slight effect on taste as well, depending on how busy you are. Copper is a "soft" metal, and will give away a little more of itself than SS. While we are talking about pretty meager amounts here, some people swear it impacts the taste and mouthfeel of the water.

Does both boiler will built up any scale and do u know why people said stainless steel will produce steel water.<br />
Currently, I used Nouva Simonelli Appia 2 grp, Vibiemme Domobar Super Level machine.<br />
How about you.<br />
Thanks for sharing<br />
Cheers

I have an Iberital IB1, 6 liter semi-automatic and a new La Marzocco GS3. I may sell the Iberital after I am satisfied with the La Marzocco.

I have one machine with two stainless steel boilers and the other machine has a copper boiler. When starting from a cold startup the heatup times are about equal. Without a good filter system they will require boiling out in about the same amount of use. From my end of the portafilter handle I can't tell any difference what so ever.

one is made from copper and one is made from stainless steel. (sorry I couldn't resist) Copper is more conductive than stainless so it manages heat more efficiently, it also expands better than stainless making it less prone to cracking from heat. As a trade off it is less durable and more expensive, but worth it.
