Hi David, and thanks for the comment.

I haven’t put timers on the machine yet, but transitioning from brew to steam seems to be under a minute, and you can see the progress real time on the LCC display. The machine auto-purges after steaming, to reduce boiler temperatures, and you can speed it up by opening the steam wand and also purging a bit extra water through that. My best guess is you can get it to down to 30 seconds or less, going from steam to brew.

Thanks for covering this machine. I only vaguely heard about the Lelit Bianca, and thought that was their only espresso machine – it is way out of my price range. This one looks great and does seem featured packed! As much as I want to wait for your review of it, i think I might be ready to pull the trigger on it now, replacing a delonghi dedica that I completely hate.

Quick question – how fast is the transition time between steaming and brewing or vice versa?
