La Marzocco releases Brew by Weight for Linea Mini

It's not bold at all! When asked in the 100s of comments on Instagram about why the existing lunar won't work, they mentioned the firmware/gateway, never once they did mention that the hardware of the scale is different

La Marzocco releases Brew by Weight for Linea Mini

They could have offered LM customers the option to nosy $50 and update their existing scales. There was more that could have been done. The company is just cocky and arrogant frankly and they know that the die hard fans don't leave them no matter what and that's exactly what happened

La Marzocco releases Brew by Weight for Linea Mini

Not sure I follow this. The commercial customer had the strada which has brew by weight for some time. If you're talking about the commercial customers with the Linea classic then that's a different story because those machines are not connected, as far as I know

La Marzocco releases Brew by Weight for Linea Mini

They won't. They're basically like Apple at this point, they can do whatever the hell they want, charge whatever they want and people will still buy and celebrate the company. For me personally, that was the last straw

La Marzocco releases Brew by Weight for Linea Mini

Fair enough! I just feel like the La Marzocco customer, including myself, has been taken for a ride, for far too long and frankly I'm standing my ground on this one. It's total madness and border line abuse what they're doing

La Marzocco releases Brew by Weight for Linea Mini

Does the warranty really matter? You already have at least one Lunar and about to buy another for $150 more than the regular Lunar for one more feature. Worst case if it dies in a year or so, just buy another one. Frankly, at this point, La Marzocco is winning this, because some people are willing t...

La Marzocco releases Brew by Weight for Linea Mini

Steam wand is not standard in the US, just overseas for some reason. Yes, no kit included. For $5900 it should be plumbable out of the box

La Marzocco releases Brew by Weight for Linea Mini

The Sanremo YOU looks very attractive right about now. Total and utter rip off by La Marzocco. $5900 machine without a plumb in option/kit, no volumetric and no no burn steam wand. Totally stupid at this point

New La Marzocco Linea Micra or used Mini?

Just like others said. The good thing about the Mini is the capacity to churn out drink after drink. I love it when I'm entertaining for birthday parties, Memorial Day, etc when I have 15 to 25 people in the house, all wanting lattes! The steaming capacity is just great for days like that. However, ...
