LCC Basic user functions 

Actual brew and steam temperature 

The Lelit Elizabeth can actually be set to show the target brew temperature rather than the actual brew 
temperature. It would be unusual to set the machine like this in the advanced settings, however if it is 
set that way, Lelit give you the option of viewing actual brew temperature. If the machine is already set 
to show actual brew temperature the first press of the + button will appear to have no effect. The 
second press of the + button shows the steam boiler temperature 

 

After a few seconds of no button press, the display returns to it's "home Screen" where the actual or 
preset brew temperature will be displayed along with the status of the steam boiler. 

Home Screen 

The display with either display brew temperature, or brew temperature with an eco symbol if the steam 
boiler is off. 

 

Other functions 

These are selected by pressing the minus (-) button.
