Lelit MARA PL62X-120 Espresso Machine PID (Latest Updated Model)

2- Xmode coffee : In this mode, the machine works as if it was a single boiler with PID control. The software turns off the steam boiler during coffee brewing, on one hand, reducing the risk of overheating (typical problem of HX machines) and on the other hand, increasing the thermal stability. To recognise the setting the machine is in, the user can simply turn it off and back on; if the led of the power button LED blinks, the Xmode coffee is active.

MaraX is extremely silent thanks to a patent pending system and provides a water flow projected to extract the best out of different coffee types and roasts, during each extraction phase.

Every time the lever is lifted and then lowered; the software turns ON the heating element. This happens for two reasons: the boiler heats up the cold water that came in and pressure for milk preparation increases. This means that the user is able to warm up milk without brewing coffee, they just need to lift and lower the group lever in order to have more than 1.2 bar pressure for 120 seconds.

MaraX has a double temperature sensor system which results in a more reactive machine during warm up and in an excellent thermal stability in the steam and hot water delivery. Furthermore, this works as a double control system allowing each sensor to detect independently any temperature fluctuation, the heating element then works fast to adjust.

MaraX comes equipped with a sophisticated power saving system that reduces the pressure in the steam boiler when not in use. This means saving a lot of power and eliminating unnecessary waste. The warm-up time once the machine is turned on is a maximum of 24 minutes.
