Traditional lever brewing with a dual-probe heat exchanger.

Heat-exchanger brewing with Pagaia electronic flow control.

Compact dual boilers with programmable timed brew buttons.

Dual boilers, manual group paddle and reservoir or plumbed operation.
The Mara X V2 is a compact E61 heat-exchanger machine designed for users who want traditional lever operation and simultaneous brewing and steaming without moving to a larger dual boiler. Its temperature-management system is intended to reduce the flushing routine commonly associated with traditional heat exchangers.
The MaraX3 builds on the compact platform with Pagaia electronic flow control. Its paddle changes pump-driven flow during extraction, giving the user another way to shape pre-infusion and the later stages of a shot. Choose it when the Mara footprint appeals to you but profiling is a central goal.
The Elizabeth V3 uses two boilers, PID control and programmable timed brew buttons in a compact, modern format. It is a strong match for households that want repeatable espresso and milk drinks without an E61 group or direct plumbing. Programmable pre-infusion and dosing simplify a shared daily routine.
The Bianca V3 is the advanced E61 option. Separate brew and steam boilers, a rotary pump, reservoir or water-line operation and a manual group paddle support a much broader range of recipes. It requires more counter space and a longer heat-soak routine than the Elizabeth, but rewards buyers who want traditional construction and hands-on profiling.

Lelit machines require an espresso-capable burr grinder with fine, repeatable adjustment. Light-roast profiling benefits from especially consistent grinding, while traditional medium and dark espresso still needs precise control of shot time and yield. Budget for a scale, suitable water and routine backflushing or group cleaning as required by the machine.
Before ordering, measure cabinet clearance and allow access to the reservoir, cup tray and controls. Follow Lelit’s cleaning schedule for backflushing, steam-wand care and water treatment. Water should meet the manufacturer’s mineral and hardness requirements; untreated hard water can create scale, while unsuitable low-mineral water may affect flavor or sensors. Confirm voltage, amperage and plumbing requirements for the exact model and use parts and procedures intended for that machine.
No. Mara X is an E61 heat-exchanger machine designed to brew and steam simultaneously from one main boiler system.
MaraX3 adds Pagaia electronic flow control and updated temperature management for users who want to change flow during extraction.
No. Elizabeth uses a compact electrically heated group and push-button timed controls.
Yes. Bianca supports a properly prepared direct water connection or operation from its reservoir.
Bianca uses a manual E61 paddle, while MaraX3 uses Lelit’s electronic Pagaia flow-control system.

Ease of use! Great grind every time. Fairly quiet. Feels like a solid piece of equipment at 10#. Making great Espresso shots!! Switches between grind settings with ease for different styles. Bellows ensures minimal retention. Open box deal was amazing. Looks like new!
You can really taste the cinnamon. A true 10 out of 10!
I love my Turin Legato V2!! I was initially torn between it and the Gemilai Ele but went with the V2 because of the additional water flow, along with OPV setting. It literally has just about everything I want in an advance espresso machine in a small package at an amazing value - pulls perfect shots! The only slight downside is that the drip tray is small so emptying it daily is a must. If Turin makes a version 3, please keep all the same settings and options but give it a bigger drip tray/workflow, longer steam wand, and make it prettier. It's basically touching on perfect. Thanks!
3-week review. Quality burr grinder. Consistently able to get X g in and X g out at the right grind.
Amazing grinder. beautiful in every way, very powerful and does exactly what its intended for. very happy with this purchase
Absolutely gorgeous machine, and so easy to plug and play. Was very surprised and extremely pleased to receive a flawless unit even as an open box. Thank you so much!
Great website and fast delivery on the DF54. Love the new machine, thank you!
I ordered a grinder and truly love it! No regrets at all. I look forward to using it every day!
I did a lot of research before I purchased this burr grinder and I am extremely impressed and happy with it!
This is a serious improvement on the original DF 83.
I purchased an open-box Turin SK40, and I was extremely impressed when it arrived in what appeared to be brand-new condition. The grinder is solid, substantial, modern-looking, and surprisingly quiet. It grinds beautifully and has exceeded my expectations.
I’m very impressed with both the grinder and my overall experience with Espresso Outlet LLC. As a new customer, I couldn’t be happier with the great pricing, fast shipping, and responsive customer service. I’ll definitely be purchasing my coffee equipment and supplies from them in the future.
Thank you, Espresso Outlet LLC, for a great experience!
I have recently entered the world of “fully manual espresso”, with the Turin Axis and the Weber HG-2 Mk2 manual grinder. Going manual has significantly improved the espresso I make and has almost eliminated “throw away shots” while dialing in grind size. My modded flow control Breville Dual Boiler has become an expensive milk steamer. Why? It’s all because manual espresso respects the coffee puck and allows it to determine how best to extract coffee goodness from it. The Turin Axis is the perfect manual lever machine for this.
The Turin Axis' quality is excellent. One can feel it in its sturdy construction and the way its moving parts operate seamlessly and smoothly. The Axis’ frame is made with “blackened” aluminum (anodized?) which offers a very sturdy platform to work with.
The Axis’ brew assembly is made entirely of stainless steel so hot brew water and coffee acids, never touch the aluminum. This is important as exposing aluminum to hot water/acids, could leach harmful minerals from it.
The stainless steel brew assembly also plays an important role in the Axis’ thermal stability. The Turin uses a PID controlled heating element to heat the stainless steel brew assembly to a targeted brew temperature. Stainless steel has lower heat conductivity. This helps maintain thermal stability, once the brew assembly reaches the targeted brew temperature. The brew assembly, including cold water in the reservoir, reaches thermal stability in around 10-15 minutes. The brew assembly is relatively small and includes the portafilter collar. Once the brew assembly is heated, the collar becomes too hot to touch, so there is almost no decrease of brew water temperature as it hits the coffee puck.
The best thing about the Axis is the manual control it offers the barista. The coffee puck/grind size determines the brew method. The Axis respects the coffee puck and allows it to determine how best to extract coffee goodness from it. Electronic pump machines do not respect grind size/coffee puck. These machines push out a consistent “static pump pressure”, regardless of grind size (resistance) and puck degradation. Because of this, grind size has to be dialed in to “accommodate” the machine’s static brew pressure.
The Turin Axis respects grind size and the coffee puck. The Axis allows the barista to manually control water’s contact time with the coffee puck in a way that will best extract its coffee goodness. The barista does this by manually controlling lever pressure to match the needs of the coffee puck/grind size. Since using the Turin Axis, I have not thrown out any shots while dialing in grind size. All shots have been acceptable at worst and excellent at best.
Want good espresso every time, without having to dial in? Controlling extraction manually is the only way to do this. Get the Turin Axis manual lever espresso machine!!
The first unit I got worked great for a few months until I had difficulty lining up the treads to screw the espresso holder onto the main unit. The owner of the company reached out to me personally to get more information about the problem and then sent out a replacement. Talk about amazing customer service! I'm really blown away!
Great machine and well built.

The Moshi has been an absolute great grinder so far coming up on a month of use. Build quality is as good as you could ask for in this price range with an all metal body, built like a tank. Super quiet, fluffy grounds, and very little retention. Only a couple of flaws/annoyances I’ve ran into. First off, it popcorns like crazy when doing a hot start, shoots coffee everywhere. Second, the metal lid pops off of the bellows every time you use it. I have used higher quality bellows that were dirt cheap off of amazon. The clip that you pull on to remove the burrs is super flimsy and pops out. All in all, the Moshi c83 punches way above its price tag and continues to surprise me you can get a grinder this capable for $600. Couldn’t recommend this grinder more! Please make a better lid, though!

Overall pretty simple process to order! Hope that at some point we implement discounts for military!
