La Marzocco Linea Mini Espresso Machine: User Manual

In this manual, you should find everything you need to operate and maintain your La Marzocco Linea Mini Espresso Machine.

Please read carefully before operating your dual-boiler rotary pump espresso machine. Check out our website for specifications for the La Marzocco Linea Mini espresso machine, including accessories and other details. For setup information, please take a look at the setup guide.

Getting Started: 

After reading through the Linea Mini setup guide, test your water. Espresso machines have specific water requirements, and there are two primary considerations: filtration and hardness. Please carefully read about the importance of water in espresso to understand how water affects your espresso machine. For further learning, check out Coffee School's Water 101.

The La Marzocco accessories kit comes with a comprehensive water testing kit for your convenience. 

Note: It's essential to test your water, filter, and soften to obtain 35-85 ppm to avoid scale and damage to your machine. RO (reverse osmosis) or distilled water does not contain enough mineral content and could cause issues with your machine. The SCA Water for Brewing Standards explains what's needed to obtain water suitable for your machine and coffee.
