Lelit | Bianca LEPL162T V1 espresso coffee machine
About Lelit
With a Lelit, you are buying a machine that gives you the control of a barista: more precision, more consistency, and an espresso that can really compete with the local coffee shop—especially with good beans and a suitable grinder.
LELIT espresso machines are manufactured in the Milan region of Italy, using the same technologies and components as professional machines. Each machine has been designed to deliver the optimal temperature and pressure for exceptional espressos.
Benefits
- Real "café-style" espresso at home : Lelit is targeting the semi-pro segment, so it's closer to a barista extraction than an automatic machine.
- Total control over the outcome : you control the grind, the dose, the tamping, the extraction time… perfect for adjusting according to the coffee and your tastes.
- Improved flavor development : when you change the grains, you can really “tune” the recipe to bring out the chocolate, the fruitiness, etc.
- More stable temperature (on several models) : several machines offer good thermal stability, which helps to produce consistent shots.
- Powerful steam for milk : excellent option if you like cappuccino/latte and want a finer foam (micro-foam) than an automatic system.
- Sustainable materials : robust chassis and components (lots of stainless steel), machine built to last.
- Excellent value for money : often, for a similar budget, you get more control and a more “pro” feel than with other brands.
- Ideal for learning and progressing : it's a machine that follows your learning curve—the better you get, the higher the quality in the cup.
- Barista accessory compatibility : filter holder, baskets, tamper, balance, etc — easy to build a solid and consistent setup.

Repositionable reservoir
It can be repositioned on one of the three side panels of the machine to best adapt to available spaces.
In addition, it can be easily removed for cleaning.
Measures true extraction pressure
Through the manometer mounted directly on the E61 group, it is possible to measure the actual pressure applied to the coffee puck, for even more precise and timely control of the extraction.
Wooden handle (paddle)
By turning the handle, the water flow on the coffee puck varies in real-time until the maximum pressure is reached.
This way, it is possible to manually modulate the extraction to obtain the best result in the cup with all types of coffees or blends.
Body and stainless steel parts (drip tray)
Bianca's body and drip tray are made of polished AISI 304 steel, the king of materials, for infinite durability, aesthetic appeal, and unparalleled ease of cleaning.
Cool touch steam-hot water wands
Lelit's new steam and hot water wands, with their new ergonomic geometry, are all Cool touch.
This helps prevent possible burns, clean the wands with ease, and prevent limescale formation.
Adjustable feet
Bianca's machine feet are made of wood, the same material used for the machine's other details, and are height-adjustable - ensuring optimal machine stability on all surfaces and, in the case of connection to the water supply, adjustment of the machine's inclination to easily drain water.
Energy saving
Bianca is made with a sophisticated energy-saving system.
This allows programming a stand-by time after which the steam boiler is deactivated and the coffee boiler is maintained at a temperature of 70°C, with a cup warmer efficiency of 80%.
This guarantees a machine recovery time of approximately 10 minutes and significant energy savings.
Technical parameters
A high-performance machine like Bianca must be able to adapt to various operating conditions and the various extraction requirements of each barista.
To this end, Bianca is equipped with a technical sub-menu that allows customizing parameters, such as the temperature of the heating block.
