Lelit Bianca V3 Double Boiler

Bianca V3 is an uncompromising machine, with the L58E group, manual water flow control and a dual boiler, created only for those who want to get the best from every type of coffee. PRO LINE A range that has made espresso history, capable of making the best espresso at home as well as in a coffee shop. With these machines, the most compact in their category, you have technology that has been refined over time, temperature control, and prestigious materials made to last. Elegance and quality for the barista within you! BENEFITS The new frontier of espresso Bianca is the flagship of LELIT espresso machines. A true gem that allows expert baristas to have absolute control over espresso extraction through manual control of the water flow using the wooden paddle and parameter management with the LCC system. A long pre-infusion, at constant pressure Bianca eliminated the mechanical pre-infusion present in the E61 group by replacing it with the LCC-Paddle couple, which allows programming of the "pump on" and "pump off" times and obtaining a constant pre-infusion pressure for a much longer duration. Establish the maximum pump pressure To extract the best from each coffee variety or roast level, each barista can adjust the pump pressure (up to a maximum of 12 bar) using the adjustment screw. Varying the pressure affects the pre-infusion and paddle behavior. An extraordinary extraction The portafilter has a 58mm diameter with a wooden handle and a Coffee Slide spout that guides the coffee into the cup and actively contributes to the creation of the espresso. The gradual incline, the length of the spout, and the open surfaces are masterfully balanced to achieve the best results. Walnut wood buttons and paddle All the details mounted on Bianca, such as the buttons, paddle and filter holder handle, are made of fine walnut wood for an extremely pleasant feel and a high-class aesthetic result. Paddle By turning the paddle, the water flow over the coffee pellet is varied in real time until maximum pressure is reached. This allows for manual adjustment of the extraction to achieve the best result in the cup with all types of coffee or blends. LCC This is the instrument that allows you to manage the machine's parameters, such as regulating the coffee extraction and steam temperatures, the pre-infusion time, activating or deactivating the steam boiler, managing standby times, partial and total dose counters, and displaying temperatures in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit. Double Boiler Two independent boilers, one for steam and hot water extraction and another for coffee extraction. A system designed for greater thermal stability and to allow for the simultaneous extraction of coffee and steam. FEATURES Repositionable reservoir Bianca's water tank is housed inside an external "backpack" to prevent the water from overheating. It can be repositioned on one of the machine's three sides to best suit available space. Furthermore, it has been designed for easy removal for cleaning. Measures the true extraction pressure Through the pressure gauge mounted directly on the E61 group, it is possible to measure the actual pressure applied to the coffee pellet, for even more precise and punctual control of the extraction. Stainless steel body Bianca's bodywork and collection tray are made of polished AISI 304 steel, the king of materials, for infinite durability, an aesthetic appearance and unparalleled ease of cleaning. Hot water steam nozzles with cool-touch technology The new LELIT steam and hot water nozzles, with their new ergonomic design, are cool to the touch. This helps prevent burns, makes cleaning the nozzles easy, and prevents milk residue buildup for an even more satisfying experience. Adjustable feet Bianca's feet are made of walnut wood, the same material used for the other details of the machine, and are height-adjustable - thus ensuring optimal stability of the machine on all surfaces and, in case of connection to the hydraulic network, an adjustment of the tilt of the machine to empty the water easily. Energy saving Bianca is manufactured with a sophisticated energy-saving system. This system allows you to program a standby time after which the steam boiler is deactivated, and the coffee boiler is maintained at a temperature of 70°C, with a cup warmer efficiency of 80%. This ensures a machine heating time of approximately 10 minutes and significant energy savings. Technical parameters A high-performance machine like Bianca must be able to adapt to the various working conditions and extraction requirements of each barista. To this end, Bianca is equipped with a technical submenu that allows for customization of parameters, such as the temperature of the two boilers. On the Bianca V3, there are 4 different modes of use: 1- Sleep mode (eco mode): after a programmed time (from 30 to 540 minutes), the software lowers the temperature of the coffee kettle to 70°C, while the steam boiler drops to 0°C. 2- Standby mode: This is a new feature of the Bianca V3. After 30 minutes, the coffee and steam kettles, as well as the LCC (Liquid Control Center), switch off. This is the default setting. 3- E-Mode: the steam kettle is always off. 4- Always ON: when the user disables standby mode and sleep mode. The machine is always on. New software The machine's software has been improved to add the new Low Flow function, Stand-by mode, and optimized heating time. Low Flow The machine's biggest improvement is the Low Flow function, which could be translated as "reduced water flow". On the Bianca V3, LELIT has automated an action previously only achievable using the paddle. Temperature compensation mode (Offset) This value increases or decreases the temperature of the coffee kettle during brewing by changing the temperature of the water coming from the group head.
