Lelit Anna PL41TEM PID Single Boiler Espresso Machine

Lelit Anna PL41TEM PID Single Boiler Espresso Machine

The Anna is where a lot of great home espresso setups begin. It’s a compact, all-metal single boiler machine with real PID temperature control — the feature that separates a machine you fight with from one you can actually dial in. Set your brew temperature, watch it hold, and pull the same shot tomorrow that you pulled today.

Everything on the Anna is built around the LELIT57 group, so the portafilter, baskets and barista tools you buy for it are the same ones the rest of the Lelit family uses. Add the three-way solenoid valve that dries the puck for a clean knock-out, a pressure gauge so you can see what your grind is doing, and a multidirectional steam wand for milk — and you have a machine that teaches you espresso rather than hiding it.

Pro Tip: A good grinder matters more than a bigger machine. Pair the Anna with the Baratza Encore ESP before you spend more on the machine itself. If you want a heat exchanger and simultaneous steaming down the road, the Lelit Mara X is the natural next step.

Single Boiler with PID Control

A 250 ml brass coffee boiler heats quickly and holds heat well. The TermoPID controller lets you set and monitor brew temperature directly, so you can match the temperature to the roast instead of guessing at it. Brass retains heat better than stainless steel, but it is more susceptible to limescale — we strongly recommend running softened or filtered water.

Grouphead and Solenoid Valve

The LELIT57 group is compatible with all LELIT57 barista tools. A three-way solenoid valve releases pressure and dries the coffee puck the moment the shot ends, so you can pull the portafilter straight out and knock a dry puck into the box — and go straight into the next shot.

Pressure Gauge

A manometer on the front reads brew pressure while you extract. It’s the fastest feedback loop you have for grind size, dose and tamp — if the needle is off, your grind is off.

Steam and Hot Water

A multidirectional steam and hot water wand gives you room to find a good angle for the pitcher, and lever switches on the front panel keep the controls simple and mechanical.

About the Brand

Lelit has been building espresso machines in Italy since 1986, and the family resemblance runs all the way through the line — from the Anna up to the flow-profiling Bianca. Shared group sizes, shared barista tools, serviceable components and parts you can actually get hold of. We only sell products we love and use ourselves.
