Manual Wooden Paddle with Pressure Gauge for Complete Control

Utilizing a manual paddle with an espresso machine empowers you to regulate the flow rate and pressure while extracting espresso. This hands-on approach give you enhanced precision in crafting each shot to achieve perfection.

Programmable Parameters

Mounted on top of the group head is a brew pressure gauge that allows you full manual control over the brew pressure as the espresso shot is extracting. With this, you can be sure that all your flavour profiles will be to your exact taste. 

The buttons on the LCC display allow you to send the machine to sleep and see the current coffee boiler temperature as well as the steam temperature.

Moveable Water Reservoir

Not only does the Lelit Bianca give you the option of repositioning the water reservoir on either side of the machine to suit your needs, but it can also be directly plumbed in (no need for a tank) and the drip tray can be drained.

For the Sophisticated Brewer

A sophisticated system that allows timed preinfusion, a reference timer, and a low-water level alert. Its dual-pressure gauge measures both the boiler pressure (0-4 bar) on top and pump pressure (0-16 bar) on the bottom.

Shot Control

This home espresso machine is equipped with advanced features that ensure precision and efficiency in coffee preparation. This machine keeps track of both partial and total doses through a counter system, ensuring accuracy in serving sizes. The coffee delivery time is also closely monitored, guaranteeing quick and consistent service. Additionally, the Bianca can be switched into an active Reserve mode during slower periods to conserve energy without compromising on performance.

PID Temperature Control

PID, an abbreviation for Proportional-Integral-Derivative, is a feedback loop controller utilized in espresso machines to regulate and maintain the water temperature within the boiler. It means you can regulate the temperature on the machine.

With PID controller espresso machines, you ensure that the water temperature remains constant and ideal for producing high-quality espresso.

Dual Boiler Espresso Machine

A dual boiler espresso machine is engineered with two distinct boilers: one for brewing espresso at the perfect temperature and another for generating steam to froth milk. Unlike single boiler machines that share one boiler for both tasks, dual boilers enable simultaneous brewing and steaming, ensuring consistent temperature and pressure for superior quality espresso beverages.

Stainless Steel Boilers

Stainless steel boilers in espresso machines offer exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. They are designed to withstand daily use without losing efficiency, even in high humidity or water-exposed environments. Despite having lower thermal conductivity than copper, stainless steel boilers require less material for construction. Additionally, they are compatible with descaling chemicals, making maintenance hassle-free for optimal performance.

Rotary Pump for Quieter Operations

Rotary pump espresso machines offer many advantages, especially for home usage. Its low noise level is a key benefit, ensuring a quieter espresso experience. Rotary pumps have a longer lifespan of approximately 15 years, making them a reliable option for long-term use and reducing the need for frequent replacements. Additionally, they provide more consistent pressure and achieve quick pressure buildup compared to vibratory pump.

Cool Touch No-Burn Steam Wands

With these revolutionary features, you can froth and steam milk without any concerns about getting burned. The cool touch technology ensures that the wand remains at a safe temperature, allowing you to focus on creating the perfect espresso drinks without any worries. Say goodbye to accidental burns and hello to a more enjoyable coffee-making process with our state-of-the-art espresso machine.

Dual Manometers

You'll find dual manometers on espresso machines for monitoring brew and steam pressure. The brew pressure gauge checks the resistance from the coffee grounds in the filter basket when the pump is running to ensure optimal extraction. Meanwhile, the steam pressure gauge on heat exchange or dual boiler machines shows the boiler's steam pressure for safety, usually rated at 2.0 bar for structural integrity.

Insulated Boiler

Insulation is crucial for boilers to maintain heat effectively. Espresso machines are equipped with thermostats, pressure stats, and PIDs to constantly monitor and regulate the temperature of the boiler. If the temperature falls below a specific level, a heating element is activated to restore it. Boilers that are well-insulated release less heat, resulting in lower energy consumption for maintaining their temperature.
