This video makes black look so much better than it did on the last model, but I'm sticking with white. I noticed they swapped the brew and steam pressure gauges to match the Micra, which makes sense given the steam wand is on the right. I also like that the front panel in the brew area is now matches the main body, making the look a little more contemporary and easier to clean.

Having literally bought the now "old model" a few weeks ago, most likely while this video was being shot under embargo, and picking the old model up from the showroom while they had the old model in the warehouse... well let me just say I am not impressed. I feel like I was used to move obsolete stock at full price. -I do love the Linea Mini, but my concern is more about the ethical (or otherwise) behaviour of LM Aus- After contacting LM Aus directly we have worked out our differences. Due credit to them. Still loving the Mini

Old LMLM still has my vote. I feel like the coffee people who will get the most out of the LMLM want the strictly manual features found on the original (old) version. The pre-infusion and easy pump pressure adjustment are the biggest wins here but don't think those warrant the upgrade from the original so I totally agree with you here!
@fgarced
6 ай бұрын
I think the same, also I made my own preinfusion (put the paddle in the middle) mod using the same materials that La Marzocco use in the factory. Now have fully manual control on the prefusion and brew pressure just moving the paddle. The new LMLM is wonderful, the only request I have is lower the price of the cool touch (steam wand) for existent LM owners.

I took a look at the coffee machinist's mod and it looks like with that, you are able to do a low pressure preinfusion that's adjustable by a needle valve. it makes sense that this requires an extra solenoid since there's two paths - one unobstructed one for full pressure, and one with the needle valve for lower pressure. but in this case it doesn't seem like the linea mini allows for a low pressure preinfusion?

In regards to high grade polymer on the porter filter, I feel they found most people want to run a naked porter filter. I know I would.
