Overview
Lelit Mara X PL62X Heat Exchange Espresso Machine
The Mara X is the Lelit’s next leading breakthrough innovation. Two years in researching, developing, and perfecting the L58E espresso machine now comes to fruition! Lelit’s Mara X espresso machine, with its esteemed L58E grouphead, sports an aesthetic stainless steel body hiding an internal, optimized heat exchange system. Now, you can be an amazing home barista, thanks to how compact the Mara X espresso machine is with its semi-commercial qualities and temperature management system.
Working with a vibration pump manufacturer, Lelit has intensely researched to decrease the noise of Mara’s vibration pump when compared to competitive L58E machines with vibration pumps. The Lelit Mara X espresso machine integrates temperature stability that improves high-quality espresso extractions.
With the help of some of these features, one can enjoy the art and culture of producing excellent espressos, cappuccinos, and lattes in no time! A good grinder is needed, and the Mara X pairs nicely with several grinders, such as the Quamar Nemo QE, Eureka Mignon Zero, Macap Leo 55 Essential and Macap Leo 55.
New Version 2 Updates as of June 2022:
Mara X has two functioning modes that aim to improve the thermal performance of the product:
- X Mode – SteamIn this mode, the machine works like a dual boiler. The software focuses on both the boiler and the heat exchanger, guaranteeing steam availability after the brewing process. In this scenario, the temperature profile of the brewing process is less stable and precise over the use of the product. Overall, the machine has higher steam performance. The HX Boiler works more intensively to balance the thermal fluctuation inside the boiler during the brewing process. The heating element is highly active:A. During coffee brewing to maintain stable the thermal brewing profile B. After coffee brewing to generate enough steam
B. After coffee brewing to generate enough steam - X Mode – CoffeeIn this mode, the machine works as if it was a single boiler with PID control. The software turns off the steam boiler during coffee brewing, on the one hand, reducing the risk of overheating (typical problem of HX machines) and on the other hand, increasing the thermal stability. To recognise the setting the user is in, they just need to turn off and back on the machine; if the led of the power button blinks, it means that the Xmode coffee is active.Best scenario of use: specialty coffee (light – roasted coffee beans)
New Updated Redirected OPV Drain System shipping as of 1/26/2022 (units were produced in 2021):
- The hose from the OPV has been redirected from the drip tray and incorporated into the hoses for the water tank and pump. This will reduce the amount of water released into the drip tray when the OPV opens.

Features
Heat exchange system:
- Pull a shot & steam milk at the same time: Steam is always readily available. Hence, there is no wait time going from coffee to steam mode like dual-purpose single boilers. This works well if entertaining a small group of people.
- Manual reset-able safety thermostat: Located on top of the boiler to prevent overheating. Usually, when a machine overheats, it means you have limescale. The safety thermostat stops the overheating so the boiler and machine do not blow up.
- Stainless steel, insulated boiler: The boiler is made of AISI 316L stainless steel design helps maintain temperature stability, but please note any stainless steel boiler can still develop limescale. Therefore, we highly recommend using a water softener. The manufacturer wraps the boiler with insulation for maximum heat retention and energy savings.
- Thermo-siphon double-cycle heat exchanger system: Keeps the brew group and the boiler always hot, at the right temperature range for making espresso.
- Power-saving system: Decreases the pressure in the steam boiler when the PL62X is not in active use.
PID Controller:
- Preset Temperature programming: Allows you to select from 3 different boiler temperature ranges for different coffee blends.
- Pre-set Temperatures Modes: With each mode comes three pre-set temperatures, which are warm, hot, and extra hot.
- Steam and coffee temperature detection: Performed two times per second and modifies the settings, depending on if the unit is given priority to either coffee mode or steam mode.
- Double probe system: Sustains the brew temperature in order to consistently make the best shots of espresso.
L58E grouphead:
- Constantly heated: Hot water circulates from the heat exchanger through the grouphead and back. This is known as the thermosyphon loop.
- Unique and accurate temperature: Unlike most traditional L58E espresso machines, the Lelit Mara X will allow you to extract espresso temperature is within 2 degrees C. Additionally, you can produce espresso any time without flushing to keep the grouphead’s temperature down.
- Pre-infusion: Lever next to the grouphead activates a microswitch which turns on the pump to pump water through the coffee grinds. Pulling the lever halfway up will open the valve to allow water into the grouphead without activating the pump. Please note that true pre-infusion requires the direct water connection whereby the water pressure from the waterline creates true pre-infusion. In a reservoir machine, the preinfusion is driven by the build-up internal pressure in the heat exchanger. The newly-designed quieter pump enables getting a longer pre-infusion once the lever is brought all the way up to the horizontal position.
- Short wait time: The Lelit Mara PL62X is NOW one of the only espresso machines with an L58E grouphead that has a short waiting time in between brewing espresso. Get ready for those back to back shots when entertaining your guests!
Silent Technology Vibratory pump:
- Efficient and quieter vibration pump: New Lelit Exclusive vibration pump that permits you to brew your espresso in your now utmost silent kitchen. Additionally, it provides water flow that gives you the flexibility to make all different types of coffee using different roasts.
- Cost-effective: Pumps will degrade in performance over time. Replacing a vibration pump will cost less than a rotary vane pump.
Tank / reservoir system:
- Auto-shutoff: Prevents the heating element from damaging when there is no or low water in the reservoir. There is a two-stage shutoff. There is a magnetic float in the water tank that detects when the water is low. The other is the spring-activated plate underneath the water tank that detects when the tank is removed.
- Particle filter: Protects the machine from any unseen particles from entering the boiler. You can remove this filter if you are installing an inline water softener. This machine can NOT be plumbed in. Always refill the tank/reservoir outside of the machine.
Dual pressure gauge:
- Steam (boiler) pressure gauge: Top half of the boiler, which has steam, is measured. Measurement is from 0 to 4 bar. Optimal pressure is between 0.8 and 1.2.
- Brew pressure gauge: This gauge measures the pump pressure required to get the water through the ground espresso coffee in the filter basket. If too coarse, the gauge will be below 8 bar. If too fine, the gauge will be over 10 bar. The same applies to the amount of coffee in the basket as well as the tamping pressure. Measures from 0 to 16 bar. Optimal pressure is between 8 and 10.
Separate steam / hot water wands:
- Multi-directional: Allows for more movement and flexibility. The wands connect to the valves on an angle to the side for even more flexibility. As a result, there is less risk of burning oneself from the exposed grouphead.
- Cool touch feature: The Lelit Mara X espresso machine sports cool touch steam wands, meaning that you will not burn yourself while touching them! Additionally, they are simple to clean in order for you to avoid limescale and further enjoy creating your desired micro froth.
- 2-hole steam tip: Allows for a slow gradual build-up of microfoam.
- Rotational knobs: Allows for easier control of the intensity. Joysticks typically have fully open and fully closed positions.
Construction:
- Stainless steel body: Brushed stainless steel finish diminishes fingerprints. Body is also available in black or white.
- New custom temperature switch: No need to worry about the PL62X’s brewing temperature! Now you can use this new switch behind the drip tray and choose one of three settings. Furthermore, these settings are warm, hot, or extra hot.
- Height-adjustable feet: Can compromise with the size of your kitchen cabinets.
- Power plug: Completely detaches from the espresso machine and can fit into the drip tray for long term storage.
Accessories included:
- Portafilter: 1 coffee slide spout portafilter with three filter baskets (9-11g/14-18g/18-21g).
- Measuring scoop: A simple plastic scoop used to measure and dose pre-ground espresso coffee.
- Filter baskets: Three filter baskets included (single 9-11 grams, double 14-18 grams, and triple 18-21 grams).
- Blind filter basket: used for backflushing/backwashing.
- Water softener resin filter: recharge minimum twice a month (depending on water hardness) and replace once every 6 months.
- Small cup riser: Suitable to lift 2 espresso cups so there is less distance in the extraction to cup. This improves the overall quality-in-the-cup.
- Cleaning brush: For cleaning the grouphead gasket.
- Tamper: A solid 58 mm tamper in stainless steel and redwood handle. One less accessory you will need to buy.
- Kit for initial cleaning:
- Backflushing: 3 single-dose packs for the 1st time as well as cleaning the accessories.
- Steam wand cleaning: 1 dose bottle for the 1st time.

Notes
General Espresso Machine Notes/Warnings:
- Upon first use (tank/reservoir models): On the initial start-up (or after a long period of non-use), it is important to make sure the pump is removing water from the tank. When the machine is powered on, you will hear the pump running. After 5 seconds, squeeze the in-line hose in the tank (usually the longest hose, has a particle filter attached). if you hear a different sound, this means the pump is working correctly. If not, immediately power down the machine and contact us. For more information, visit this page General Manual Pump Priming.
- Electrical: To avoid electrical damage to this espresso machine which is not considered a manufacturer's defect, please acquire and install a single-outlet surge suppressor rated at 1080 joules or higher. Without the recommended surge suppressor, the espresso machine can be damaged at the power switch, the electronics, the heating element, the pressurstat, or the wiring inside. For more information, visit this page Power Protection.
- Water: To increase the useful life and not damage your espresso machine, please use softened water. Softened water is water without calcium and magnesium, but still has other minerals for espresso extraction. Do not use distilled, purified, or reverse osmosis water as these types of water create oxidation with the metals and cause the same damaging effects as limescale. For more information, visit this page Water Choice.
- Descaling: We do not recommend descaling unless there is an issue with the espresso machine. Too much descaling can eat away at the metals and gaskets inside an espresso machine. As a preventative measure, we recommend using softened water as explained in the bullet point above.
- Backflushing: This procedure of cleaning the grouphead will need to be performed from time to time. For more information, visit this page Espresso Machine Backflush – Why 50?

My Sidewalk sale from you is making a loud ringing noise while it heats up in the morning, steam coming from where the body meets the drip tray and frequent sputtering of water from the body into the drip tray. I think I need: expansion valve ( MC931) steam boiler safety valve (3 bar 9700050) O-ring and gasket set for the valves and drain connections vacuum breaker valve 9700052, only if you think that’s worth replacing it at the same time descaling material suitable for the Mara X; I understand citric acid is acceptable, but I’d appreciate your recommendation and a spare water filter.

Based upon the description of steam coming from the body of the machine, we recommend that you bring the machine in for service. Please contact our office to make arrangements to drop the machine off.
My Lelit Mara X is taking over an hour to reach brewing temp after ~9months of storage. Before I put my machine into storage, the heating up on initial start up only took ~20min. After draining the boiler, I put it into climate controlled storage for 9months. After setting it back up, the machine takes over an hour to get up to temperature. The grouphead starts to feel warm at around 20min but the steam pressure doesn't start building till 50+ min. Once the steam pressure starts to build it, it only take 20min to reach 1.5 (psi/bar?). I've run 4 descaling procedures using Urnex Dezcal Coffee following their products directions and Lelit's descaling protocol. Any ideas on what the problem could be?

The Mara X is about 14 inches tall and you will need an additional 12 - 13 inches or so to safely remove and replace the water tank for filling, unless you plan to pull the machine from under the cabinets each time you need to refill the water tank. We also recommend at least 2 inches above any espresso machine, to allow for adequate ventilation during operation.
Hi and thanks for a wonderful Lelit PL62T Mara PID HX . We purchased it back in 2020 from you all and love it. Recently on starting up it seems like it overheats makes funny noises, pump runs, pulls from the water basin and eventually settles back down. The rest of the morning it's fine.

I have a Lelit Mara X, purchased from 1st line in 2021. I’m starting to experience heat loss issues after pulling 2 shots in a row. After the second shot, light starts blinking and takes about 3-5 mins to get back up or enough pressure to steam milk. I’ve done regular routine at home maintenance - daily back washes, detergent back washes 1-2x per month, water softener “recharge” 1x per month and deep cleaning the group head basket 1x per month

Any of the following parts can be an issue: SSR relay (most likely), heating element, safety thermostats, PID sensors (either of 2 or both failing), brain unit failing.
I purchased my Mara X V1 from you a few years ago and I have seem some review/comments online about some people have updated the control unit and seen some better performance around temperature stability. Would getting "Gicar 9600096 Brain Unit – 9.3.01.46G – Lelit PL62X Mara X" be something that you would recommend?

Sorry, we usually recommend to leave things alone if and when working well.
I have the Mara S 2014 . The symptom is that the water reservoir been boiling because of the heat from the hose going into it. Usually when it reaches 3 bars. I did some online research and it possibly could be the thermostat. Is there any way you can point me in the right direction to get this resolved. It is a beautiful machine that has alot of life. Thanks so much!

Please note that your machine has exceeded the 10 year anniversary and should be evaluated by a professional. You have an overheating situation which can be caused by several parts - brain unit, SSR, pressurstat, melted wires, and/or a damaged heating element.
Please refrain from use until evaluated because the boiler can blow up if the safety thermostat is defective AND/OR the boiler safety valve is seized on a 10+ year old machine.
