Espresso Machine Lelit Bianca V3

Overview

For the newest iteration of the Bianca line of espresso machines, the experts at Lelit have once again impressed with the Espresso Machine Lelit Bianca V3. Walnut wood accents beautifully adorn this Italian-made dual boiler machine, while a polished stainless steel frame results in a visually appealing appearance that blends seamlessly with modern kitchens. Internally, the 1.5L steam boiler and 800mL brew boiler are crafted from stainless steel and meticulously insulated for superior temperature stability, rapid heat-up times, and the convenience of simultaneous brewing and steaming.

Features and Performance

Flow control functionality comes standard with the Bianca V3 via Lelit’s patented rotating flow control paddle. This innovative feature also offers an option for a low flow mode, which simulates complex flow profiles without requiring constant paddle movement. When the paddle is rotated all the way to the right, it will allow the maximum amount of water to flow (averaging between 6-7 ml/s). Rotating the paddle completely to the left effectively halts water flow, so rotating the paddle between the two extremes is encouraged to find the ideal flow rate.

Advanced PID and Pre-infusion Customization

The included PID controller features a crisp digital OLED display and offers extensive customization of settings, including brew temperature offset and pre-infusion. Temperature customization is achieved through the brew temperature offset setting, which allows for precise temperature adjustments during brewing. Pre-infusion time can be meticulously set to the exact number of seconds you desire the pump to run to wet the ground coffee in your portafilter, and then the exact number of seconds you want the pump to turn off, allowing the coffee to percolate and bloom before the full brewing process begins.

Flexible Water Source and Ergonomics

Additionally, the machine can be operated with the included 2.5L water reservoir, or it can be plumbed in directly to a water line for continuous operation. A truly unique aspect of this setup is that the water reservoir can be strategically moved to any of the side or back panels, allowing you to adapt to your specific spacing needs and kitchen layout. The included anti-burn steam and hot water wands are multi-directional, accommodating virtually any cup or mug size, and are operated by responsive and tactile knobs with spring closure for precise control. External pressure gauges for the steam boiler, pump, and group head are also included, providing comprehensive feedback during operation.

Why You Should Get It

Besides the fact that it is an Italian-made machine packed with high-end features like advanced flow control functionality, precise pre-infusion, and the iconic E61 group head, just one look at the Espresso Machine Lelit Bianca V3 should convince you that you’ve found the machine of your dreams. With its polished stainless steel frame, elegant walnut wood accents, and thoughtfully designed wire grate drip tray and cup warmer rack, this machine boasts a sophisticated look that will seamlessly blend into any kitchen, coffee house, or office setup. It’s not just a machine; it’s a statement piece that delivers exceptional espresso.
