Over the course of two years La Marzocco worked with thirty of the world’s finest coffee professionals to design a machine.
This group was known as the “Street Team”; the Strada, Italian for street, was named in their honor.
Street Team input resulted in the most technologically advanced traditional espresso machine featuring traditional hydraulics and a barista-friendly design.
This conical valve system assures progressive control of water flow and pressure via an internal orifice, before applying full pressure.
The new conical paddle valve controls the pre-infusion while the volumetric pump is working at full pressure, therefore barista may also perform a pre-infusion on one group while the other is extracting coffee.
This dynamic system allows the barista to reduce channeling for a more balanced extraction.
conical paddle
This new conical valve system assures progressive control of water flow and pressure via an internal orifice,
before applying full pressure. The paddle valve controls pre-infusion while the volumetric pump is working at full
pressure, allowing the barista to perform pre-infusion on one group while the other is extracting coffee. This
dynamic system allows the barista to reduce channeling for a more balanced extraction.
pressure & flow control
Progressive control of water flow and pressure via La Marzocco’s classic paddle interface and a mechanical
internal valve, thus allowing controlled pre-infusion.
real time pressure
Dedicated coffee boilers and periscope pressure gauges for each brew group provide real time coffee boiler
pressure throughout the extraction. Dedicated pressure gauges help to indicate any inconsistencies in the grind,
dose, or tamp.
essential features
performance touch steam wands
High performing steam wands that are cool to the touch.
exposed saturated groups
Increased temperature stability, ergonomics and workspace visibility.
independent coffee boilers
Separate boilers for each group head allow baristas to optimize temperature for multiple coffees.
dual pid (coffee and steam)
Allows you to electronically control coffee and steam boiler temperature.
insulated boilers
Reduce energy consumption while contributing to temperature stability.
ruby flow restrictors
Synthetic ruby flow restrictors resist scale formation and erosion.
pre-heating system
Prior to entering into the coffee boiler, water is pre-heated – thus increasing productivity.
paddle interface
La Marzocco’s iconic paddle to activate coffee brewing.
stainless steel portafilters & precision baskets
For improved cup quality and consistency.
digital display & jog wheel interface
Temperature display, shot timers and intuitive programming simplifies the adjustment of machine parameters.
mechanical steam lever actuation
A user-friendly lever controls steam.
hot water economizer
Fine tune the temperature of the hot water spout.
periscope pressure gauges
Monitor pressure during extraction.
adjustable deep drain tray
Accommodates a variety of cup sizes.
cup warmer
Maintain espresso and cappuccino cups heated at a proper temperature.
personalized colors
Customizable colors based on the RAL color system, on request.
