La Marzocco Stainless Steel GB5 S Espresso Machine

The La Marzocco GB5 S is a fully comprehensive update in style and technology of an industry icon. With a history dating back to 2005, the second generation GB5 carries on the spirit of the GB5 line: a machine rooted in classical European design coupled with cutting-edge performance. The new GB5 S features a revamped visual identity that modernizes the machine without sacrificing the look, premium feel, or dynamic elegance. The two red lilies on the side shields recall the company's Florentine heritage, while the front panel has been redesigned to increase group visibility. The second generation GB5 is the first series of La Marzocco machines equipped with a water sensor that measures the conductivity and hardness of water as it enters the machine. This information allows the user to monitor water quality and verify filtration performance without requiring additional testing tools.

Features

• Classic Italian Design - The gracious lines and harmonious curves of the GB5 S speak to the La Marzocco heritage of design and intention. The understated side shields, elegant Florentine lily, subtle insignia of il marzocco on the cup rail and more combine to give this machine the feel of an heirloom built to stand the test of time.
• Pro-App Compatible - The Pro-App will give the barista control over the day to day functions of the machine, including adjusting dose, coffee boiler temperature, and usage statistics. La Marzocco Pro-App will be available in Mid-2021.
• Dual Boilers - Separate boilers optimize espresso brewing and steam production. Boilers are insulated to reduce energy consumption while contributing to temperature stability.
• Dual PID (coffee and steam) - A PID controller employs an algorithm to regulate when and for how long the heating element is engaged in the boiler. Using a PID controller dramatically reduces temperature variability by precisely regulating the energy of the heating elements. With dual PID, both boilers use this system, ensuring a consistent brew temperature and stable steam pressure. The barista can adjust both boiler temperatures to a precise numerical value using the group keypad.
• Piero Group Caps (AV, ABR) - Re-engineered internal water path and flow-meter positioning that increase temperature stability.
• Saturated Groups - Ensure unsurpassed thermal stability, shot after shot.
• Pro-App Compatible - Electronic board that will allow connectivity with the La Marzocco Pro App, available in Mid-2021.
• Digital Display - Intuitive programming makes it easy to adjust machine parameters.
• Programmable Dosing (AV, ABR) - Auto-volumetrics ensure repeatability and consistency in high-volume settings.
• Integrated Scales (ABR only) - Precision scales built in the drip tray with the Drip Prediction technology provide a new level of consistency.
• 24V Electronics - New generation of electronics for improved reliability and machine diagnostics.
• Easy Rebuild Steam Valve - Engineered so the valve can be serviced directly from the front of the machine without needed to be removed.
• USB - The built-in USB connection makes it possible to update the firmware.
• Dimmable Barista Lights (AB, ABR) - 3-stage LED lights for eco, on, and brewing modes allows you to focus on your extraction and the cup. Not dimmable in EE configuration.
• Eco Mode - Can be programmed to enter stand-by mode, improving energy efficiency.
• Auto Backflush - Simplifies the cleaning process to improve efficiency.
• Ruby Flow Restrictors - Ruby flow restrictors resist scale formation and erosion.
• Partially Exposed Groups - Improved workspace visibility for streamlined barista workflow.
