Lelit Mara PLX+ PID 

 

Includes: Free Shipping One-year parts and bench labor due to defective parts.

The Mara 62X is the Lelit’s next leading breakthrough innovation, 

 Lelit’s Mara 62 espresso machine, with its esteemed E61 brew group, sports an aesthetic stainless-steel body hiding an internal, optimized heat exchange system with PID temperature control. Now, you can be an amazing home barista, thanks to how compact the Mara X espresso machine with its semi-commercial qualities and PID temperature management system.

Working with a vibration pump manufacturer, Lelit has intensely researched to decrease the noise of the Mara’s vibration pump when compared to competitive E61 machines with vibration pumps. The Lelit Mara PL62 X espresso machine integrates temperature stability through the PID temperature management system that improves high quality espresso extractions.

With the help of some of these features, one can enjoy the art and culture of producing excellent espressos, cappuccinos, and lattes in no time! A good grinder is needed, of course!Heat exchange system:

Pull a shot & steam milk at the same time – Steam is always readily available. Hence, there is no wait time going from coffee to steam mode. This works well if entertaining a small group of people.

Stainless steel, insulated boiler – The boiler is made of AISI 316L stainless steel design helps maintain temperature stability, but please note any stainless-steel boiler can still develop limescale. Therefore, we highly recommend using a water softener. The manufacturer wraps the boiler with insulation for maximum heat retention and energy savings.

Thermo-siphon double-cycle heat exchanger system – Keeps the brew group and the boiler always hot, at the right temperature range for making good consistent espresso. Polymer tubing connection – From the boiler to steam and hot water valves: alimentary polymer tubes resist limescale buildup. These tubes are able to withstand high pressure and high temperatures up to 620 °F. These tubes also facilitate easier repairs with quick connects. Power-saving system – Decreases the pressure in the steam boiler when the X is not in active use. PID Controller:

Preset Temperature programming – Allows you to select from 3 different boiler temperature ranges for different coffee blends. Pre-set Temperatures Modes – With each mode comes three pre-set temperatures, which are warm, hot, and extra hot. Steam and coffee temperature detection – Performed two times per second and modifies the settings, depending on if the unit is given priority to coffee mode or steam mode. Double probe system – Sustains the brew temperature in order to consistently make the best shots of espresso. Silent Technology

Efficient and quieter vibration pump – New Lelit Exclusive vibration pump that permits you to brew your espresso in your now utmost silent kitchen. Additionally, it provides water flow that gives you the flexibility to make all different types of coffee using different roasts.

Cost-effective – Pumps will degrade in performance over time. Replacing a vibration pump will cost less than a rotary vane pump. Tank / reservoir system:

Auto-shutoff – Prevents the heating element from damaging when there is no or low water in the reservoir. There is a two-stage shut off. There is a magnetic float in the water tank that detects when the water is low. The other is the spring-activated plate underneath the water tank that detects when the tank is removed.

Particle filter – Protects the machine from any unseen particles from entering the boiler. You can remove this filter if you are installing an inline water softener.

This machine cannot be plumbed in Always refill the tank / reservoir outside of the machine Dual pressure gauge: Steam (boiler) pressure gauge – Top half of boiler, which has steam, is measured. Measurement is from 0 to 4 bar. Optimal pressure is between 0.8 and 1.2.

Brew pressure gauge – This gauge measures the pump pressure required to get the water through the ground espresso coffee in the filter basket. If too coarse, the gauge will be below 8 bar. If too fine, the gauge  will be over 10 bar. The same applies to the amount of the coffee in the basket as well as the tamping pressure. Measures from 0 to 16 bar. Optimal pressure is between 8 and 10

E61 group head:.

  • Constantly heated – Hot water circulates from the heat exchanger through the group head and back. This is known as the thermosyphon loop.
  • Unique and accurate temperature – Unlike most traditional E61 espresso machines, the Lelit Mara X will allow you to extract espresso  temperature is within 2 degrees C. Additionally,  you can produce espresso any time without flushing to keep the group head’s temperature down.
  • Pre-infusion –  Lever next to the group head activates a microswitch which turns on the pump to pump water through the coffee grinds. Pulling the lever halfway up will open the valve to allow water into the group head without activating the pump. Please note that true pre-infusion requires the direct water connection whereby the water pressure from the water line creates true pre-infusion. In a reservoir machine, the pre-infusion is driven by the build up internal pressure in the heat exchanger. The newly-designed quieter pump enables getting a longer pre-infusion once the lever is brought all the way up to the horizontal position.
  • Short wait time – The Lelit Mara PL62X is NOW one of the only espresso machines with an E61 group head that has a short waiting time in between brewing espresso. Get ready for those back to back shots when entertaining your guests!

Separate steam / hot water wands:

  • Multi-directional – Allows for more movement and flexibility. The wands connect to the valves on an angle to the side for even more flexibility. As a result, there is less risk of burning oneself from the exposed group head.
  • Cool touch feature – The Lelit Mara X espresso machine sports cool touch steam wands, meaning that you will not burn yourself while touching them! Additionally, they are simple to clean in order for you to avoid limescale and further enjoy creating your desired micro froth.
  • 2-hole steam tip – Allows for a slow gradual build-up of microfoam.
  • Rotational knobs – Allows for easier control of the intensity. Joysticks typically have full open and full closed positions.

Construction:

  • Stainless steel body – Brushed finish diminishes fingerprints.
  • New custom temperature switch – No need to worry about the  brewing temperature! Now you can use this new switch behind the drip tray and choose one of three settings. Furthermore, these settings are warm, hot, or extra hot.
  • Height-adjustable feet – Can compromise with the size of your kitchen cabinets.
  • Power plug – Completely detaches from the espresso machine and can fit into the drip tray for long term storage.

Accessories included:

  • Portafilter – 1 coffee slide spout portafilter with three filters (9-11g/14-18g/18-21g).
  • Measuring scoop – A simple plastic scoop used to measure and dose pre-ground espresso coffee.
  • Filter baskets – Three filter baskets included (single 9-11 grams, double 14-18 grams, and triple 18-21 grams)
  • Blind filter basket – used for backflushing/backwashing
  • Water softener resin filter – recharge minimum twice a month (depending on water hardness) and replace once every 6 months
  • Small Cup Riser – Suitable to lift 2 espresso cups so there is less distance in the extraction to cup. This improves quality in the cup.
  • Cleaning brush – For cleaning the group head gasket
  • Tamper – A solid 58 mm tamper in stainless steel and red wood handle. One less accessory you will need to buy.
  • Kit for initial cleaning –
    • Backflushing: 3 single-dose packs for the 1st time as well as cleaning the accessories.
    • Steam wand cleaning: 1 dose bottle for the 1st time.
