Lelit Giulietta Auto 2 Group Coffee Machine — Compact Italian Commercial Espresso Machine
The Lelit Giulietta Auto 2 Group is a handcrafted Italian commercial espresso machine delivering professional performance in an ultra-compact 58cm (22.8") width — 30-40% narrower than standard 2-group machines. Engineered in Italy, the Giulietta features a 10-liter copper boiler with transversal heat exchangers and front injector maintaining constant brewing temperature without cooling flushes, two E61 commercial group heads with programmable volumetric dosing, PID temperature control for precise thermal management, and rotary vane pump delivering consistent 9-bar extraction pressure.
Uniquely, the Giulietta operates on a standard 10-amp electrical outlet (2,150W total: 2,000W heating + 150W pump) — no specialized 20-30 amp wiring required like larger commercial machines. This combination of compact footprint, standard electrical requirements, and full commercial specifications makes the Giulietta ideal for specialty cafés with limited counter space, offices serving 25-100 staff, mobile coffee carts and vans, showrooms and retail spaces, and small restaurant kitchens. Capacity: comfortably produces 120 regular milk-based drinks per hour without boiler pressure or brew temperature drop.
LELIT Thermal Stability (LTS) System
The Giulietta Auto incorporates LELIT Thermal Stability (LTS) — an intelligent temperature management system reducing group head overheating while maximizing energy efficiency. Standard brewing temperature is user-selectable based on coffee type (light roast vs dark roast, single origin vs blend). After 15 minutes of inactivity, LTS automatically lowers temperature to a preset value preventing brew water overheating. After 240 minutes of continuous inactivity, the system enters ECO mode substantially reducing power consumption while maintaining quick recovery time.
The digital PID temperature controller uses advanced algorithms to maintain boiler at optimal temperature ±1°C, then drops temperature during idle periods. This eliminates the temperature spiking common in traditional heat exchanger machines, ensuring consistent shot quality throughout the day. No cooling flush required — the transversal heat exchanger design with front injector delivers stable brew temperature shot-after-shot, even during high-volume service periods.
E61 Commercial Group Heads with Programmable Dosing
Two L58E commercial E61 group heads feature thermosyphon circulation maintaining temperature stability and compatibility with professional 58mm LELIT58 barista tools and IMS precision baskets. Each group includes programmable volumetric dosing — set custom extraction volumes for single espresso, double espresso, lungo, and manual operation. Pre-infusion timing is adjustable per group independently, enabling two different coffee blends with optimized extraction parameters on the same machine.
The double keyboard system accesses the technical menu displayed on the large LCD screen, allowing baristas to configure extraction modes, pre-infusion duration, dose volumes, and temperature offsets for each group. Automatic cleaning cycle functionality simplifies daily maintenance — engage backflush mode via menu, attach blind basket, and the system executes programmed cleaning cycles reducing labor and ensuring group hygiene.

Commercial Performance in Compact Format
Hourly Capacity: The 10-liter copper boiler with 2,000W heating element maintains thermal stability for 120 milk-based drinks per hour without pressure drop or temperature degradation. Steam recovery time between drinks remains minimal due to large boiler capacity and efficient heat exchanger design. Simultaneous dual-group operation enables two baristas working concurrently during peak service.
Heat-Up Time: Approximately 45 minutes from cold start to optimal brewing temperature. LTS thermal stability system then maintains readiness throughout the day, dropping to energy-saving mode only after extended inactivity. Commercial rotary pump provides quieter operation than vibratory pumps while delivering consistent pressure and plumb-in capability for high-volume environments.
Ideal Applications
-
Specialty Cafés with Limited Space: 58cm width fits counters where standard 2-group machines (80-90cm) won't, without sacrificing commercial capacity
-
Corporate Offices (25-100 Staff): 10-amp operation eliminates expensive electrical upgrades; produces 600+ drinks weekly
-
Mobile Coffee Carts & Vans: Compact dimensions and standard electrical requirements ideal for mobile setups; proven in food truck applications

⚠️ Important Purchase Information
Water Connection: Specify plumbed or tank configuration when ordering. External water tanks NOT included but available separately. Plumb-in installations typically require inline water filtration (e.g., Brita C150 PLV) to protect boiler from mineral buildup.
Electrical Requirements: 220V operation. Machine voltage is configured for your region during manufacturing. Specify your location when ordering. Standard 10-amp outlet required.
Certifications: This machine is NOT UL, ETL, or NSF approved. Commercial establishments selling beverages should verify local health department and building code requirements regarding equipment certifications before purchase.
Why Buy from Di Pacci USA?
Authorized Lelit Dealer: Di Pacci USA is an authorized Lelit distributor providing genuine Italian-manufactured machines with full 12-month manufacturer warranty coverage. International shipping available with delivery times varying by destination. Tariffs handled by Di Pacci where applicable.
Pre-Purchase Consultation: Our technical team provides consultation on plumbing requirements, electrical specifications, and space planning. We stock replacement group gaskets, shower screens, and other wear components for ongoing maintenance needs.
Commercial Grinder Pairing: Never spend more on your espresso machine than your grinder budget allows — the grinder is the most impactful variable in espresso quality. We recommend pairing the Giulietta with Mazzer Super Jolly, Mahlkönig E65S GbW, or Eureka Atom 75 commercial grinders. Our team provides grinder matching consultation ensuring proper workflow and output capacity.
Surge Protection & Water Filtration: To protect your investment, we strongly recommend installing a single-outlet surge suppressor rated 1,080+ joules. Electrical damage from power surges is not considered manufacturer defect. Additionally, use softened water (calcium/magnesium removed) or inline filtration to prevent boiler scaling and extend machine lifespan.
