The re-imagined, fully updated Linea Mini from La Marzocco is a classic espresso machine that has stood the test of time as one of the most reliable home espresso machines on the market. The upgraded Line Mini features a large, 3 liter steam boiler, and a group cap that has been adopted from La Marzocco’s commercial espresso machines. It comes in a variety of colors that make it the focal point of any home espresso bar or low-volume commercial environment.
The newest iteration of the Linea Mini, sometimes called the Linea Mini R by the coffee community, draws on the heritage of the Linea Classic S commercial espresso machine, incorporating updated, Della Pietra curves and aesthetics. Also new to the Linea Mini are the Soft Touch components found on the semi-automatic paddle, steam knob, and hot water knob. Another update to the Linea Mini is the integrated shot timer, found just above the paddle to assist in pulling precise shots of espresso each time the machine is used.
One of the most exciting updates to the Linea Mini is the new, two-valve, soft saturation pre-infusion feature with a self-cleaning flow restrictor. When plumbed in, you can use the La Marzocco Home app to set your desired parameters to experiment with different recipes for the perfect extraction. If the Linea Mini isn’t plumbed in, try using the pre-brew feature to explore similar options. La Marzocco has also built the new Linea Mini with the Brew-By-Weight scale in mind, allowing you to program your machine to stop at your desired espresso yield for unparalleled consistency.

Direct Plumb: Direct plumbing means you can hook your La Marzocco Linea Mini machine directly to a water line and never have to worry about refilling your reservoir again. These machines also allow you to connect the drip tray to a drain so you don't have to make that tightrope walk to the sink. Plumb In Kit sold separately
Who is the Linea Mini for?
Home espresso enthusiast, small cafes, mobile carts, and any other mobile coffee operation are all served valiantly by the Linea Mini every day in thousands of locations across the USA.
Can it steam milk and brew espresso at the same time?
Absolutely! As a independent, dual boiler espresso machine, it is very capable of doing both at the same time with ease.
How does it compare to other machines in this category?
While it doesn't win strictly on "features" it is still a super durable option that's easy to use, maintain, and will perform in higher volumes that you would expect. It's a commercial ready machine, that happens to be in a home espresso machine shell.
How long will this machine last?
As long as proper water filtration is maintained and preventative maintenance is performed, we would expect around 7-10 years of life.
What's the next level up in the La Marzocco Home range?
The GS3 AV (auto volumetric) or GS3 MP (manual paddle) are the next in line in the La Marzocco Home range. Both of these have an improved feature set and are capable of higher volume than the Linea Mini.
