{"product_id":"lelit-mara-x","title":"LELIT Mara X","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeat exchanger with dual probes, L58E group, auto temperature management. Made in Italy.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mara X is Lelit's answer to a question home espresso has been asking for years: can a heat exchanger machine actually run cool enough to pull a good shot without a cooling flush? Lelit's take is a double-probe system with a thermosyphon circulation that keeps the group stable regardless of idle time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single 1.8L boiler produces steam and feeds the coffee circuit through a heat exchanger. Two probes monitor temperature: one at the boiler, one at the group. The electronic controller reads both and adjusts heating to keep the extraction temp in range. You pick your mode and walk away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe L58E group means you get Lelit's commercial-style head with mechanical preinfusion. A gentle pressure ramp wets the puck before the pump hits 9 bar. Lock in a portafilter, press the brew lever up, and the shot pulls. No flushing. No waiting for the heat to settle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo probes, one boiler, no cooling flush.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mara X has two operating modes. Xmode Coffee prioritizes the group, which is ideal if you mostly pull espresso and steam occasionally. Xmode Steam prioritizes steam pressure, which helps if you are making back-to-back milk drinks. A three-position temperature switch lets you choose Warm, Hot, or Extra Hot depending on the roast profile you are brewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pump is Lelit's engineered silent design. It runs quieter than a standard vibratory pump and gives a longer pressure ramp that acts like a soft preinfusion. You hear less, the machine stays calmer, and the shot has a smoother start.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you actually get.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDouble probe HX system\u003c\/strong\u003e — Two temperature probes and a thermosyphon circulation keep the group stable without a cooling flush.

No menu diving.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow it works: Heat-up and first shot.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mara X reaches brewing temperature in about 24 minutes from cold start. During that time the double-probe system is letting the boiler and the group come up together instead of separately. When the ready light is on, the group is genuinely ready.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo pull a shot, lift the brew lever up. The silent pump starts and water moves through the group head. The mechanical preinfusion in the L58E group gives the puck a gentle wet-up before full pressure hits. Lower the lever when the shot looks right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter 30 minutes of inactivity the machine enters standby automatically. Lift the brew lever up and back down to wake it. The boiler ramps back to temperature without a full heat cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it's for: Who the Mara X is for.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mara X is the machine we recommend when someone wants heat exchanger performance without the heat exchanger learning curve. If you do not want to remember cooling flushes and idle times, this is built to handle those concerns for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also a good fit if you mostly pull one or two shots at a time and want a steam wand that holds up when you do make a cappuccino. The 1.8L boiler has the capacity to steam well without the footprint of a dual boiler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEvery spec Lelit publishes.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBoiler (HX)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.8L AISI 316L stainless\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWater tank\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5L removable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eGroup head\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eL58E with mechanical preinfusion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePortafilter size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e58 mm (LELIT58)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTemperature settings\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarm \/ Hot \/ Extra Hot (~197 \/ 201 \/ 205 F)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eOperating modes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXmode Coffee \/ Xmode Steam\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eHeat-up time\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e~24 minutes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBody finish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrushed stainless (Black and White finish variants available)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWood details\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaple\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eVoltage (US model)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120V 60Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eVoltage (EU model)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230V 50Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22.5 x 52 x 35.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDesigned and made in Italy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat ships with your Mara X.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mara X comes with a complete filter kit, portafilter, tamper, water softener, and starter cleaning supplies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLELIT Mara X espresso machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLELIT58 2-way portafilter \u003cem\u003e(Polished black handle, Coffee Slide spout)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIMS 1-dose filter \u003cem\u003e(9-11g)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIMS 2-dose filter \u003cem\u003e(14-18g)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIMS 2-dose filter \u003cem\u003e(18-21g)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIMS blind filter \u003cem\u003e(For backflushing)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel tamper \u003cem\u003e(Red wooden handle)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoffee spoon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCup rack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater softener filter \u003cem\u003e(35L capacity)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInitial cleaning kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon bristle brush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWarranty: Manufacturer warranty.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLelit is a family-owned Italian manufacturer.
