La Marzocco Plumb-In Kit for Linea Mini R
With this connection kit, the Linea Mini R connects directly to the mains water and drainage system – just like large commercial machines. No more refilling or emptying the tank, but a constant water supply with every shot.
The kit is specifically designed for the Linea Mini R: lines, seals, and connections fit without improvisation. Installation requires opening the machine and modifying various components; we recommend having this work performed by our workshop.
The Linea Mini R is the redesigned generation of the Linea Mini, featuring among other things a new pre-infusion system and a revised water connection layout. That's why the kit for the classic Linea Mini or the GS3 doesn't fit here – the Mini R needs its own.

Who it's for
For anyone with a Linea Mini R who wants permanent mains-water operation from day one, or wants to retrofit it later. Whether from the tank or the mains: both are valid choices, our view on this is one of many.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of the plumb-in connection?
The Mini R draws water directly from the tap and drains wastewater, no more filling or emptying the tank.
Can I install the kit myself?
Installation requires opening the machine and modifying various components. We recommend having this work performed by our workshop.
Does the kit fit every Mini R?
It is specifically designed for the La Marzocco Linea Mini R. If in doubt, just ask us briefly.
Does this kit also fit the classic Linea Mini or the GS3?
No. Compared with the classic Linea Mini, the Linea Mini R has a redesigned water connection layout, so it needs its own kit. For the classic Linea Mini and the GS3 we carry a separate, shared kit.
Can I see the product in the showroom before buying?
Our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zurich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b) show a wide selection, but not our entire range – the display changes. Drop us a quick line at [email protected] before your visit, and we will check whether the product you have in mind is currently there.
Roastery tip
Whether run from the tank or freshly connected to the mains: the espresso in the cup is what counts. For the majority of our community we recommend Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight from our own roastery – full-bodied, aromatic, dense. If you're after maximum body with no acidity at all, Very Nutty is the one. For anyone who wants to discover a fruity experience: Wild Peach – a discovery on the side, never the main message. Our recommendation, one of many.
