Nurri L-Type Leva Lever Espresso Machine | Buy Online South Africa | Coffee & Blenders SA
The lever espresso machine reimagined for South African home baristas
The Nurri L-Type Leva takes everything coffee lovers admire about traditional lever machines — tactile control, ritual, and expressive espresso — and brings it firmly into the modern era. Designed for those who want to brew with the skill and passion of a professional bartender from their own kitchen, this is one of the finest manual lever espresso machines available in South Africa today. Its servo-assisted group paddles, dual boiler architecture, and precise PID temperature management make every pull a rewarding, repeatable experience.
Ready in 15 minutes, not an hour
One of the biggest frustrations with traditional lever machines is the long warm-up time. The Nurri L-Type Leva solves this entirely. Thanks to its modified LSM group with active heating, the machine is brew-ready in as little as 15 minutes — a game-changer for South African home baristas who want great espresso without the wait. The 3-channel PID continuously manages brewing and steaming temperatures independently, so you never have to choose between pulling a shot and steaming milk.
Preinfusion pressure control for the perfect extraction
The L-Type Leva’s servo-assisted group paddles do more than assist with lever operation — they give you hands-on control over preinfusion pressure at every stage of the extraction. Whether you’re working with light single-origin beans, experimenting with a finer grind, or dialling in a blend for a South African roaster, preinfusion control allows you to match your technique precisely to your coffee. The result is a fuller, more nuanced espresso in every cup.
H2 — Quiet, reliable, and built for mornings
Unlike vibration-pump machines that announce every shot with a loud buzz, the Nurri L-Type Leva uses a rotary pump engineered specifically for quiet operation. Water is delivered smoothly and steadily into the boiler, and as the brew reaches its final moments, the pump switches itself off — resulting in an almost silent pour. It is the kind of thoughtful design detail that makes a real difference in a home environment, particularly on early South African mornings.
Italian design meets natural craftsmanship
The Nurri L-Type Leva is as much a statement piece as it is a brewing machine. Its high-shine stainless steel body is beautifully complemented by rich walnut wood accents — a combination that feels at home in a premium South African kitchen, a luxury apartment, or a boutique coffee setup. The machine connects to the mains water supply or operates via its built-in reservoir, giving you complete flexibility over where and how you use it.

Unlike traditional lever machines that can take up to an hour to reach
brewing temperature, the Nurri L-Type Leva is ready to use in approximately
15 minutes, thanks to its modified LSM group with active heating.
What is preinfusion and why does it matter for espresso?
Preinfusion is the process of gently saturating the coffee puck with
low-pressure water before full extraction begins. This leads to a more
even, controlled extraction and a richer espresso. The Nurri L-Type Leva
lets you adjust preinfusion pressure through its servo-assisted group
paddles for precise control over how your coffee extracts.
Does the Nurri L-Type Leva need to be connected to mains water?
No — the Nurri L-Type Leva offers dual water supply options. You can
connect it to your mains water supply for continuous operation, or use
the built-in water reservoir for a fully freestanding setup, ideal for
flexible placement in South African homes.
Is the Nurri L-Type Leva a quiet espresso machine?
Yes. The L-Type Leva uses a rotary pump engineered for quiet operation.
The pump also switches itself off towards the end of each brew, resulting
in a near-silent pour — perfect for early South African mornings.
