Journeys with Linea Mini

To us, there is nothing more satisfying than walking into a new environment and finding our eyes land on an unexpected La Marzocco. This could be a cafe, restaurant, farmers market or a newfound friend’s home! The mouthwatering excitement that this equipment can encourage is remarkable. Especially considering that its main job is to consistently push temperature-stable hot water through a small, well-packed bed of coffee. And thanks to Italian designers, no matter where we find La Marzocco, it looks like it was always meant to be there. 

Let’s take a dive into the features of our most versatile machine, the Linea Mini. With the sleek Della Pietra curves that make the Linea line-up so iconic for us all, the Mini has slid into place as the heart of many compact espresso bars worldwide. Weighing only 66lb (30kg), the Linea Mini gives the freedom to brew espresso anywhere…
