La Marzocco Stainless Steel Strada Espresso Machine

The La Marzocco Strada platform features an iconic Italian design and a user-friendly interface. It has been designed based on barista feedback to encourage creativity and customization so that each machine can be unique. The Strada invites customer engagement in a café with a lower profile while providing the barista with an open, expansive work area. Within the Strada family, the Strada AV is the choice for customers who appreciate the familiarity of volumetric controls and seek repeatability and consistency in high-volume settings. With the reliability one expects from time-tested La Marzocco equipment, the Strada AV delivers the most stable brewing platform thanks to its thermal stability system and individual coffee boilers. Performance Touch Steam Wands improve the machine's ergonomics, always remaining cool. Barista-friendly electronics make it easy to change settings, program the device, update the firmware by USB, and provide the user with an enjoyable, comfortable, and unique experience.

Features

• Proportional Steam Valve - Lever-style activation for proportional solenoid steam valve eliminates the needs for regular maintenance and offers a gentle ramp to full steam pressure.
• Dual Insulated Coffee Boilers - Separate boilers optimize espresso brewing and steam production. Boilers are insulated to reduce energy consumption while contributing to temperature stability. Set a different temperature for each group head, giving you precise control over extraction.
• 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.
• AV Configuration (with or without scales) - Auto-volumetrics ensure repeatability and consistency in high-volume settings.
• Proportional Valve Technology - Variable solenoid valve control of the steam wand.
• Programmable Preinfusion - Employs a two stage programmable preinfusion process that allows for multiple groups to be in operation at the same time.
• Pre-Heating System - Prior to entering into the coffee boiler, water is pre-heated - thus increasing productivity.
• Exposed Saturated Groups - Increased temperature stability, ergonomics and workspace visibility.
• Performance Touch Steam Wands - High performing steam wands that are cool to the touch.
• Adjustable Drip Tray - Allows you to use the machine with tall, to-go cups.
• Exposed Saturated Groups - Increased temperature stability, ergonomics and workspace visibility.
• Stainless Steel Portafilters & Precision Baskets - Provides improved cup quality and consistency.
• O-LED Display - Intuitive programming simplifies the adjustment of machine parameters.
• Hot Water Economizer - Fine tune the temperature of the hot water spout.
• Auto Back-Flush Program - Automatic cleaning program.
