La Marzocco Linea Mini | Review

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Who has the Linea Mini at home?

[@Jaroslav.]

I do!

[@carlosvelasquez5998]

I do mine is in red and I love it, I've had it for 1.5 years and I haven't had any issues, I use 100% reverse osmosis water and I drain the water boiler once a month to get rid of any minerals built-up. I have mine for home use and make me and my wife a 4-shot flat white every morning. Btw, I also roast my coffee in a behmor roaster. Thanks for the great video!

[@visualguerillaFILMs]

now one year with the white Linea Mini

[@HOTON]

Great machine! Bought it one year ago, and i can confirm it has proven its qualities✌️🇮🇹👌

[@marcusherts9345]

Me, when they have a two thirds off sale..

[@subr4711]

Bought mine in the heights of pandemic last 2020, this is the only thing keeps me sane for the past few years haha

[@CoffeePartsTV]

I really miss mine!

[@keithingle2119]

Watching this review after just ordering the Linea Micra - it sounds like LA Marzocco have taken the same mentality in the way they've stepped down from the commercial machines to the mini - they've gone from the mini to the micra.... can't wait for my machine 💪💪

[@CoffeePartsTV]

You will love the Micra! Cool little machine :)

[@mannyr8795]

Good luck fitting a decent sized cup with the scale though.

[@JesseVanderhoff]

Great overview video. As someone evaluating whether to purchase a mini, pointing out the details is appreciated. As a watch enthusiast, appreciate the Panerai guest appearance!

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Thank you, appreciate the comments. Watches are my other love, may start cycling thought the collection on future videos :)

[@dr.onderkul]

Panerai and La Marzocco... They look insane.

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Thank you :)

[@mesingerus]

I recently bought this amazing machine! I was surprised to find out that here in Israel it costs less than in Europe or in the US

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Congrats! It's awesome, glad you love it! Also, didn't realize it's cheaper in Israel versus Europe or the US.

[@JZ_42]

I see that BMW (M4 is it?) every time when I go to Coffee Parts to collect my order and now I know it's Pedro's 😊 Nice car BTW, just like every single product that I've bought from you guys!

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Glad you love our products. Yep, the M4 is his :)

[@HerfingPug]

Great vid. I love your enthusiasm and of course the machine. Thank you.

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Thank you ☺️

[@jonathanl2748]

At this point, would you still recommend the Mini for home use or the Micra? I’m concerned about the short clearance of the Micra, between the portafilter and the drip tray. Thanks!

[@CoffeePartsTV]

I personally would still go for the new Linea Mini!

[@jayc1805]

Amazing review, best review I’ve seen on a LM Mini, super clear!!! Also nice M4 and Panarai on your wrist 😜 seriously loving seeing your reviews

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the kind words.

[@Chemari]

Hi Great video! How would you compare this to the Rocket Cinquantotto? I know there is a big price difference but specs on paper is almost the same. How about the build quality compared to the Rocket Cinquantotto?

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Build is similar on both. In terms of the machine, similar in many ways, and also different. LM has an app, Rocket control is via the screen. Major difference is e61 group head vs integrated group head, and steam boiler size, with the LM being larger. Lm also comes with stainless handles. Both cool brands, LM does have cult status tho, and price may reflect this too. You are right tho, definitely comparable machines.

[@Chemari]

Thanks for your reply. After spending hours maybe even days watching KZbin review videos I already made my purchase a few days ago. LM all the way!

[@Jaroslav.]

What a beautiful PB X, and a great overview!

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Thank you :)

[@benmulleady7266]

Be great to see a new review of the mini-r when you get a machine 👍

[@robertneu279]

Great review. What's the correct grinder to pair with the linea mini?

[@HOTON]

La Marzocco pairs it up with the Mazzer Lux. Perfect combination👌

[@asselinpower]

I ve been dreaming of it for a while… especially in black 👌. Good review man 👊🏻

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Thank you, appreciated it! And the Mini is cool, do love them :)

[@anthonycocco9993]

Hi Pedro, love your videos! I have a milestone birthday coming up and am wanting to upgrade from a barista express. Plan to keep it Italian, plumb it in and pair with a Eureka Oro Mignon. Which would you recommend out of the Linea Mini, the Cinquantotto and the Giotto Type R?

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Firstly, happy birthday! All great machines, and as you are pairing it with the Eureka Oro you will get great results whichever way you go. All machines have a rotary pump, which is my preference. Different will be HX vs Dual Boiler.. And hard to answer without knowing a little bit more about you? Do you want to make a lot of coffee in a row for, say, entertaining? What type of coffee will you mainly be doing etc? If milk-based, LM has the largest boiler and nicest steam. If mainly espresso, the LM and Cinquantotto offer a little more temperature control and stability, with LM having a faster warm-up time. In many ways tho, it's somewhat diminishing returns after the Giotto R... So does come down to which machine makes you smile and what budget you are cool with. Whichever way you go, you will have an awesome setup.

[@petercaddy]

Consider an ECM Synchronika - brilliant machine

[@Danny-ev2px]

How good is Panivore Cafe! 😍

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Awesome local spot :)

[@alarcilam]

Hola Pedro.. nice car you have there as well as the beautiful Linea Mini.. quick one, compared to other machines, how often does the Linea needs to be serviced and how much can it cost?

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Thank you. Servicing costs will depend on where you are located, however will reach out to BrewTech who does the Mini servicing in Australia on behalf of LM Home and let you know costs here. As for what needs to be done. Generally, the main things to do is to replace the group head seal every 6-12 months, and things like the shower screen and filter baskets every couple years. Does depend on use tho. And then a larger service every 5-7 years. In saying that they are a solid machine built with the same quality as the commercial versions. One main thing to keep in mind is the water quality, as scale is what causes most of the issues. Ideal water for coffee and machine maintanance is a tds of around 100ppm

[@neilt6674]

Which do you prefer mini or eagle one prima?

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Funny you should ask - Video out Friday

[@mericlis]

Is there any chance that we could have a LMLM with flow control?

[@CoffeePartsTV]

As in to buy, or for me to have on the channel? LMLM don't come from factory with flow control, and I don't see them doing this, yet there are aftermarket companies who have done this...

[@Dl2aKap]

Any chance for build in shot timer? Any rumor? :)

[@mtbgo7860]

Nice edit!

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Thanks!

[@danielyoung5758]

Love the review and the nice wheels! 😎

[@CoffeePartsTV]

Thank you, glad you liked it!

[@explorebali5337]

at this point I think Bezzera Aria is the best

[@bsdgffishtuna5186]

too fussy on water minerals. it'll choke like a princess if its not just the right balance of h2o mineralization. this sort of analism is a massive fail. my 10 yr old la scala butterfly made espresso just as good without the princessism on Linea. So pass. this mini is just for fools with more money the sense.

[@MathewBT81]

This machine creates absolutely incredible coffees and the milk wand is Ferrari spec 🔥🤌🏆

[@CoffeePartsTV]

It really is!
