Overview

The La Marzocco Linea Mini R White espresso machine is one of the first truly connected espresso machines, unlocking bonus features exclusively accessible via their dedicated app. This is a commercially certified dual boiler espresso machine, equipped with a saturated group head for unparalleled temperature stability, a precise PID controller, a quiet rotary pump, and a convenient internal reservoir. It features an innovative heat exchange system that efficiently pre-heats water before it enters the brew boiler, optimizing thermal consistency. The group head cap is directly adopted from La Marzocco’s professional commercial machines, further enhancing the Linea Mini’s temperature stability to truly professional levels. The connected app allows you to program a comprehensive on/off schedule, enable plumb-in mode, adjust steam pressure intensity, and fine-tune the two-valve pre-infusion system (which supports both soft saturation and a self-cleaning cycle). The built-in shot timer and compatibility with a Brew-By-Weight Scale (sold separately) allow for ultimate extraction precision and consistency, empowering you to achieve your perfect espresso.

Those who desire that classic café look and feel in their home or for their small coffee shop are inevitably drawn to La Marzocco’s long heritage and the iconic Linea Mini. You want to pull delicious shots, but creating an exceptional experience and a beautiful aesthetic are equally important elements of your ideal home espresso bar. You want the confidence to entertain a full dinner party without skipping a beat. Perhaps you’re even considering starting a coffee cart business. The Linea Mini R is designed to meet these aspirations.
