Lelit Bianca PL162T dual boiler espresso machine with PID V3

Lelit Bianca PL162T V3 dual boiler espresso machine with PID and stainless steel boiler

A wide range of setting options that have never been available before in this price segment

The Lelit Bianca dual boiler portafilter espresso machine combines well thought-out details and the legendary E-61 brewing group for the perfect espresso enjoyment at home. The Lelit with PID is a further development in the successful Pro Line series. 2 boilers, each with 1400 watts. Lelit has designed the Bianca PL162T so that the two heaters, each with 1400 watts, do not run in parallel, but are always electronically controlled with just one. Improved rotary valves for hot water steam and optimized details are combined here on the smallest footprint to create a powerful espresso machine. The Lelit Bianca PL162T can be easily adapted to the different working conditions and the different extraction needs of the user.

Manual paddle

The barista can use the manual paddle to directly influence the pre-infusion. The paddle movement can be used to directly change the flow rate of the incoming brewing water, which can influence the speed of the pressure increase during the pre-infusion phase. The second pressure gauge built into the brewing group allows you to control not only the pump pressure, as with other machines, but also the pressure in the coffee puck in real time.

Optimized temperature control

With the Lelit Bianca PL162T V3 you no longer have to worry about the temperature consistency when extracting coffee and steam. With the PID configuration buttons you can preset 3 levels: warm, hot and extra hot to set the perfect extraction temperature. The temperature is measured by several sensors of the PID system across the entire circuit and regulates the heating output very precisely and in an energy-saving manner. The powerful rotary pump has been further optimized and works particularly quietly and with stable pressure.

control of extraction pressure

The large double pressure gauge on the Lelit Bianca allows you to read both the steam boiler pressure and the pressure curve during coffee extraction. This allows you to monitor the extraction process from pre-infusion to the end. The optimal extraction can be achieved with just small changes in dosage, grinding level and compression.

Espresso machine with water tank and permanent water connection - what would you like?

The Bianca's water tank is mounted externally to prevent the water from heating up prematurely and to maintain its quality. It is easier to remove completely and is much easier to fill. The tank can be easily cleaned via the large upper opening. The tank can be mounted either behind or to the side of the machine or, when used in fixed water mode, the tank can be completely removed, which saves a lot of space.

coffee machine with stainless steel boiler

The aesthetics of the Lelit Bianca are characterized by the housing made of tempered and satin-finished stainless steel. The sheets are carefully flanged and very well finished. The drip tray and the heated cup rack are equipped with a coated grid - just rinse and you're done.

Lelit consistently uses stainless steel for the Bianca PL162T - the boiler and heat exchanger are made of tempered stainless steel. Combined with improved temperature control, this is the material of the future with a very long service life and absolutely neutral taste.

Cool Touch lances

The newly designed lances have an improved geometry. They are flexible for improved handling and have a double-walled design for safety. The Cool Touch technology reduces the risk of burning yourself on the otherwise very hot components. In addition, significantly less deposits are created and the Cool Touch lances are easier to clean.

Save energy – reach operating temperature faster

The Lelit Bianca is equipped with an innovative energy saving system. If the machine is not in use for a long time, the boiler pressure is reduced. The savings achieved are significant and avoid unnecessary energy waste. The warm-up time of the cold machine is around 17 minutes and includes the necessary operating temperature thanks to the patented HX Double Probe System of the massive E-61 brewing group.
