La Marzocco Linea Mini R

La Marzocco Linea Mini R – Turn your home into a café

Imagine this: It's Saturday morning. The kitchen is still quiet. You push the paddle, hear the rotary pump hum softly, see the first drop fall – golden brown, thick, perfect. This isn't just coffee. This is your moment. Your ritual. Your time out before the day begins.

Or imagine this: You have guests for dinner. Six people. Everyone wants a cappuccino after dessert. You don't get flustered. You smile. You flip the lever, the steam is incredibly powerful, the milk becomes velvety and glossy. You're no longer just a host. You're an artist. That's the Linea Mini R.

If you go to a top-notch café – in Bern, Zurich, Melbourne, or Oslo – chances are you'll find a Linea Classic there. The Linea Mini R is the direct heir to this legend. Built like a tank. Precise as clockwork. With the new "R" version, La Marzocco has technically revolutionized the classic (keyword: Brew-by-Weight) without altering its essence. As an official La Marzocco dealer , we offer you this masterpiece directly online – with secure shipping and full support.

Why the Mini "R" will change your life

The classic Linea Mini was already fantastic. The "R" makes it perfect for the modern home barista. La Marzocco listened carefully – and improved precisely the details that matter in everyday use:

The shot timer is now elegantly integrated at the front – no more counting or checking your phone. You see at a glance: 25 seconds. Perfect. The steam wand now uses a cool-touch polymer technology . It stays cool to the touch, is safer, and milk won't burn. Your fingers will thank you – especially after that third cappuccino in a row.

And most importantly: it's ready for the future of extraction. For absolute perfection. For shots that taste exactly the way you want them to – every day, every time.

The technology – for those who want to know the details

As aroma specialists and sensory experts, we love consistency. And this is where the Mini R demonstrates its greatest strength:

• Brew-by-Weight Ready (The Game Changer): When used with the Acaia Lunar X scale (sold separately), the machine communicates with the scale via Bluetooth. You flip the lever, and the machine stops precisely at the set weight (e.g., 36g). The result: 100% reproducibility. Your espresso on Monday morning will taste exactly as perfect as the one on Sunday. No guesswork. No hoping. Just perfection.
• Hybrid pre-infusion: Gently moistening the puck before full pressure build-up (soft saturation) results in less channeling and a noticeably smoother, rounder flavor. You'll taste less bitterness, more sweetness, and greater complexity.
• Steam power for hosts: The large steam boiler ensures you won't run out of steam, even after making your fifth latte macchiato in a row. The foam becomes finely textured and glossy – like a work of art. Your guests will ask you: "Where did you learn that?"

Applied Aroma Chemistry: The Coffee Coaching Club Tip

Your perfect workflow with the Mini R

You don't need a barista certificate to operate this machine. With the right setup, it does almost all the work itself. Imagine your morning:

1. Grinding: A machine of this class needs a strong partner. For the perfect weight-based workflow, we recommend the Mahlkönig E64 WS (grind-by-weight – the grinder weighs automatically). For maximum aroma diversity and single-dose freshness, choose the Varia VS6 (exclusively available from us – zero retention, maximum freshness).
2. Extraction: You connect your Acaia Lunar scale once via Bluetooth. You flip the lever. The integrated timer starts automatically. The machine stops at 36g. You take the cup, drink, smile. Every day. Perfect.
3. Milk frothing: Thanks to the cool-touch wand, you'll never burn your fingers again. You have the time and peace to fully concentrate on stretching and swirling the milk. The foam becomes velvety, glossy, perfect for latte art.

The ritual takes 5 minutes. But those 5 minutes are yours. No stress. No compromises. Just you and your perfect espresso.

Technical details

Who is the Linea Mini R right for?

You don't need the Mini R. Honestly.

But treat yourself if:

You're the host who doesn't get flustered after dinner when everyone wants a cappuccino. You smile because you know: The machine can handle it. Effortlessly.

You're the aesthete who wants a design icon in your kitchen. The Linea Mini R isn't just a machine. It's a work of art. A statement. A conversation starter.

You're the perfectionist who, thanks to brew-by-weight, leaves nothing to chance. You want to know: My espresso today tastes exactly like yesterday's. No guessing. No hoping. Just perfection.

Or maybe you simply want it because you can. Because you want to be a little happier every morning. Because the ritual with a genuine La Marzocco makes your life more beautiful.

That's reason enough.

Frequently asked questions about the Linea Mini R

How does brew-by-weight work?

You'll need the Acaia Lunar X scale (the special La Marzocco version). This connects to the machine via Bluetooth. In the app, you set a "Stop at 36g" function. You then flip the lever, and the machine automatically stops brewing as soon as 36g of coffee is in the cup. The result: your espresso tastes exactly the same, perfect every day. We're happy to help you with the setup!

Can I connect it to the mains water supply?

Yes, absolutely. All the necessary parts are included (or already prepared). The rotary pump makes this possible without any problems – you'll never have to fill the tank again.

Is the extra cost compared to the Micra worth it?

The Micra is a space-saving marvel for private enjoyment – ​​compact, fast, and perfect for 1-2 people. The Mini R is a workhorse with a true professional feel. If you have plenty of space, often entertain, and love the feel of a large commercial machine, the Mini R is worth the extra cost. The space under the portafilter is also larger on the Mini R – perfect for large cups and scales.

Can I simply order them online?

Yes. Unlike the Micra, you can order the Mini R directly here in our shop. We'll deliver it safely to you via freight carrier or courier – throughout Switzerland and Liechtenstein – within 2-3 business days.

Roastery tip: The Mini R's thermal stability is particularly evident in medium roasts. Our Cozy Chocolate displays its chocolatey notes without any bitterness – exactly as we intended during roasting. Enjoy it in the morning as an espresso, savoring the warmth, the sweetness, the tranquility. The Nutty Delight blends beautifully with milk – nutty, velvety, perfect for cappuccinos that will delight your guests.
