The “Lelit Anita PL042TEMD” coffee machine is created for those who value simplicity and compactness, yet understand that the perfect espresso can only be made from freshly ground coffee beans. With the help of this coffee machine, you will prepare freshly ground coffee beans each time and make a cup of true espresso or cappuccino right at your home. The integrated PID regulator for controlling the temperature of the water heater (boiler) enables you to experiment even more with various coffee flavours.
INTEGRATED COFFEE MILL
The integrated coffee mill with 38-mm conical burrs and micrometric, stepless grinding adjustment gives you an opportunity to enjoy coffee that is extremely fragrant and perfectly delicious each and every time. All you have to do is place the coffee preparation handle on a special knob and the coffee machine will start grinding beans.
INTEGRATED TAMPER
To make the use of this machine even more convenient, a tamper has also been integrated in it.
PID TEMPERATURE REGULATOR
The built-in PID regulator for controlling the temperature of the water heater (boiler) allows you to adjust coffee and steam temperature. You can experiment even more with various coffee flavours!
PROFESSIONAL STEAM/WATER WAND
By using the professional steam/water wand, you’ll froth the perfect milk foam for your milk-based drinks. The wand is also multidirectional, so it’s extremely easy to use.
DESIGN INSPIRED BY THE 1960s STYLE ICONS
The design of the coffee machine was inspired by the style of the 1960s and the symbols of the decade’s Italian design — Vespa and Fiat 500. The coffee machine is named after the Swedish actress Anita Ekberg, who starred in the famous film “Dolce Vita” directed by Federico Fellini.

– Cup-warming stand
– Stainless-steel body
– Drip tray grate made from stainless steel
– Lever control switches
– Multidirectional steam/water wand
– Illuminated manometer for measuring coffee pressure
– PID regulator for controlling the temperature of the water heater
– The water level in the tank can be seen from the side and the front
– Anti-drop three-way valve system — you’ll be able to prepare multiple drinks in a row
– 250-ml copper water heater for stable water temperature (crucial for good espresso!)

The full set of this coffee machine includes filters for 1 and 2 cups of coffee, as well as a filter for coffee pods. A blind filter has to be purchased separately.
You’d benefit from getting the following tools:
– A high-quality metallised tamper. This model requires a 57-mm tamper (you can find one here).
– A tamping stand to make tamping coffee easier.
– A knock box.
– A ground coffee distributor.
– A milk jug.
– A milk thermometer.
The main difference is the PID temperature controller. “Anita TEMD” is equipped with a controller of this kind, so you can adjust coffee and steam temperatures. Different drink temperatures result in different flavours, which makes this feature really handy.
– Lelit water filter.
– Cleaning tablets.
– Milk system cleaner.

Bought this coffee machine as a refurbished item. The team was very helpful and with my decision. The machine is in great conditions – as far as I can tell it works as good as new apart from a few cosmetic scratches. I mostly drink espressos and flat whites, and I like darker roasts. After 2-3 days of getting used to it, I got cafe’ quality espressos using relatively pedestrian Lavazza beans and am able to texture milk for flat whites or cappuccinos very quickly. I find it very forgiving even if going above the ideal pressure, provided it doesn’t trigger the OPV (12 bar). A solid 8/10 quality average is very easy to get to. The extraction is never bitter or sour and with good body, and lots of crema. The user experience is satisfyingly analogue, I love the switches instead of buttons. The grinder works well, set to 2.5 for mid-deep roast; It coped well with occasional lighter roasts too as the output is uniform and fluffy, but I had to be extra careful to avoid channeling. My feeling is that Italian style roast is the sweet spot, it’s very easy to use then. The grinder is a bit messy – I have been using a cutout yogurt pot to catch the ground coffee until I find a more permanent solution. Also, the hopper warms up the beans a bit so I never fill it completely, but these are very minor issues. You’ll notice a drop in temperature as you brew coffee, but this is the boiler temperature and is expected (Lelit have videos on YouTube to show how the PID works). However, after a couple of double espressos you will need to wait 30 seconds or so until the temperature goes up again. On that subject, the machine is ready to brew after a minute, but group and portafilter are fully heated after roughly 10 minutes – and hold the heat very well. Going into this purchase, I also considered the Barista Express and the DeLonghi La Specialista Arte. I think that if you’re a beginner like me wanting to learn, this will be more fun. Once calibrated, it is easier to use than I thought, and being manual you can do slight adjustments as you go and save an imperfect brew. Very impressed – may need to buy some good quality decaf to avoid caffeine addiction.
