The Linea Mini is a superb machine for the home, with highly stable brew temperatures and endless steam. What might seem like a small boiler actually works to its advantage, as adjustments on the PID are quick to take effect, and a pre-heat coil and integrated brew group ensure the whole brewing system stays toasty warm with hardly any noticeable temperature fluctuations during use. The stainless steel construction makes this machine look and feel like its commercial counterparts, and should the need arise it could certainly keep up with lower-volume catering or cafe use.
