Love at first sight: Custom, 1 off La Marzocco Linea Mini Connected
The extensive modifications made to this machine represent many times the the purchase value of the original, donor machine- so if it’s to ever leave us, it will need a be an offer which is way too good to refuse and this baby will never be shipped in a crate.
This machine is the culmination of almost a year of Rick’s sweat, tears and finally, elation. Here’s Rick’s personal take on the stunning La Marzocco Linea Mini.
“This build combined the classic La Marzocco Paddle group with its smooth tactile feedback and a modern variable pressure pump – the goal being full manual control to dial in flow rate, with the buttery smooth feeling of a well set up MP paddle.
This was achieved by retrofitting a variable speed rotary pump with a 3 phase brushless DC motor and associated control gear, which was linked to a sensor so that paddle position regulates pump speed – drive by wire. It’s beautiful, fun and intuitive to use – think fully manual Strada EP. Please note that this machine is now plumb in only.
The exterior features signature Coffee Machinist, Pantechion and Specht Design parts along with exquisite finishes and a beautiful colour palette for wow factor and elegance. These include stunning, intricate gauges (40 hours of work alone in these), anodising and Cerakote, world first leva operated steam and hot water, shot timer and many other visual, tactile and operational refinements.
