Mara X is a one of a kind machine with specialized features like PID dual sensors, an E61 brew group, and a near-silent pump, Mara X provides high efficiency and top of the line performance when it comes to heat exchange. The PID’s dual sensors provide reliable, consistent, brew temperatures, which also helps alleviate overheating.

In addition, the pair of switches underneath the drip tray provide ease-of-use for temperature adjustment, as well as whether to have the boiler prioritize steam or coffee. Located on the bottom-left of the front panel of the machine underneath the drip tray is a three-position switch that allows for the ability to swap between three preset brew temperatures – Warm (∼198°F), Hot (∼201°F), or Extra Hot (∼204°F). The other switch is located on the bottom left of the right side panel of the machine and can be toggled between one of two positions, with each position dedicated to either coffee or steam prioritization.

Other features include a 2.5L water reservoir, anti-burn and multidirectional steam and hot water wands, gauges for steam and pump pressure, pre-infusion compatibility, and an intuitive ECO mode that automatically puts the machine in stand-by mode after 30 minutes of inactivity.
