Working with La Spaziale

We have been working alongside La Spaziale since the birth of Limini Coffee in 2008.

It has always been our aim to source equipment based on reliability, easy of use and value for money. La Spaziale espresso machines are exactly this.

The large range of beautiful La Spaziale machines on offer mean that there is a machine for everyone; from the consistent work-horse La Spaziale S2 to the plethora of digital features of the La Spaziale S50.

The machines themselves are hand-built in Bologna, Italy. The factory is a real family run business with the original owners still being involved. A lot like Limini!

Not only this, but having a La Spaziale Office in the UK with a team of dedicated engineers and office team has meant that the access to support, orders, parts and engineering is smooth, reliable and professional. In addition to this, we have a support network of La Spaziale engineers across the UK ready when you need them.

In short, the La Spaziale espresso machines we source are at a fantastic price point for a high quality machine with all the support you need!

La Spaziale - the building of a La Spaziale espresso machine

This is the amazing story of La Spaziale and how this wonderful family business has become so successful in building some of the very finest espresso machines in the world.

La Spaziale in Bologna now build over 13,000 machines each year, all by hand!

La Spaziale machines are now exported worldwide to many countries with the UK being one of the most successful markets.

This is a real family run business with the original owners still being involved and the family going from strength to strength. The factory is very welcoming and has an onsite coffee shop called Jakarta which is worth visiting. The very first models are put to the test here.

This page shows you how much work really goes into building these toys for baristas. Enjoy!

La Spaziale in Italy.

It all started with the dream of three passionate Italians in Bologna in 1969.

The building of an espresso machine starts by loading the metal sheets ready for cutting.

The cutting is done by a laser to extreme precision.

Each machine has a very precise print design.

The result is a consistent and perfect design.

The finishing touches are added by hand.

Once all the sheets and frames are made they are sent off to the main La Spaziale factory.

La Spaziale headquarters where all the magic happens. This is one of the two factories.

All the individual parts are stored before assembled by the experienced staff.

Parts such as group handles are put together by hand.

Group heads are carefully built.

Ready to join the rest of the machine.

Once the individual parts are built, a trolley is made which contains all the components for the specific model.

Each staff member builds the machine by hand, it takes three hours to put the beauties together. All machines are made to order which gives freedom to many different variations of each model.

We start with the basic frame, then the pump, then the PCB and the rest...

The factory feels very controlled and a nice working environment. Quiet and professional.

Once built, the machines go to the all important testing stage which ensures machines arrive in top condition.

Extensive testing for correct brewing temperatures, pressures and everything else.
