La Marzocco Leva X1

The Leva X1 is La Marzocco's reinterpretation of the classic lever machine: a single group, driven by a lever with an externally adjustable spring pre-load that governs pre-infusion pressure and water volume in full view of the operator. The manual measures it at 52.2 x 67.1 x 77.6 cm (W x D x H) for 67 kg, with the pump built into the chassis.
The declared coffee boiler is 1.3 liters, the steam boiler 3.5 liters, with a gauge dedicated to monitoring coffee boiler pressure during warm-up, per the manual's instructions. The manufacturer also describes a dual PID system, one per boiler, to stabilize temperature on a mechanism that traditional levers usually lack.
Neither the site nor the manual states portafilter diameter or warm-up time: two technical figures still to be verified elsewhere. Oddly, the manual's dimension table carries an internal annotation next to the weight, "DA VERIFICARE IL PESO" (weight to be verified), a sign that even the official document treats that figure as unsettled.
