Smart workflow and ergonomics are the name of the game for the KB90. When a barista is busy pulling shots and steaming milk hundreds of times per day, the repetitive motions of the job can be taxing on their body (just look up “barista wrist” and you’ll see what we mean!). That’s where things like the new straight-in portafilter come in: it’s designed lock in and pull a shot using a more natural and less stressful movement, eliminating awkward twisting motions and offering a much gentler experience for the barista’s joints. The portafilter slides into place on rails and locks upward with ease, and removing it post-shot is done with a press of the thumb on a release tab. This makes for a slightly more complicated group, but relieves a great deal of stress on the barista’s body.

The KB90 also comes complete with a suite of new features, including the brand new Pro Touch wands. Unlike other cool touch steam wands on the market, La Marzocco’s are made of dual wall vacuum insulated steel, which seal in the heat and keep the wand cool to the touch even after the busiest of lunch rushes. New steam valves are not only also easier on barista wrists – with a smaller turning radius to engage full steam power – they are designed to be rebuilt more quickly and easily, allowing a tech to shut off steam at the boiler so they can swap out o-rings and rebuild the valve without having to shut the machine down entirely.

With optional drip tray scales, the KB90 is able to pull shots with Auto Brew Ratio mode. ABR allows the barista to weigh a dose in the portafilter directly on the shot scale, and the machine will pull a perfect shot to your desired output ratio. ABR machines can also be run in Mass Mode, so you can instead pull shots to your desired output weight directly into your cups. And with Drip Prediction, the KB90 is able to predict when to cut the flow to the shot to make sure your beverages are consistently tasting their best.

Straight-in Portafilter: The KB90’s signature feature is the new straight-in portafilter design. The brand new group lock-in mechanism allows a barista to gently insert the portafilter straight in, no twisting or contorting required. Lifting the portafilter handle engages the locking mechanism, and the group automatically seals when the pump is engaged.

Steam flush: After each shot, the KB90 is able to run an automatic flush of both hot water and steam to keep your dispersion screen clean and your coffee tasting its best.

Auto Brew Ratio: With Auto Brew Ratio (ABR), you can use the built-in drip tray scales and programming to weigh out your doses in the portafilter, and brew to a set ratio or to your desired beverage mass. ABR machines can also dose by volumetric pulses if desired. Please contact our sales team for more info about ABR machines.

Over the course of two years, La Marzocco worked with the world’s finest coffee professionals to design an espresso machine. This panel of experts was named the “Street Team.” The Strada, Italian for “street,” was named in their honour. Street Team input resulted in the most technologically advanced espresso machine featuring traditional hydraulics, semi-automatic brewing control and a barista-friendly design. This means a lower profile to invite customer engagement in a café setting, while also providing the barista with an open, expansive work area, and a design that encourages creativity and customization so that each machine can be unique.

Engineering

• 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.

Featuring iconic Italian design and user-friendly interface; the Strada has always been evolving over time based on barista feedback.

Within the Strada family, the Strada AV is the choice for customers who appreciate the familiarity of volumetric controls, and who 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 remaining always cool to the touch.

Barista-friendly electronics make it easy to change settings, program the machine, update the firmware by USB and provide the user an enjoyable, comfortable and unique experience.

• Modern design with updated control over the brewing process
• Dual PID system for maximum control of water and steam
• Dual boiler system with saturated group technology

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.

Featuring eye-catching design and lower profile to invite customer engagement, Leva re-invents the iconic lever machine design with more ergonomic elements. Leva is a cutting-edge café centerpiece that encourages engagement, barista experimentation and coffee conversations, while delivering the world’s best coffee extraction. Leva brings with it design, focusing not just on the physical beauty, but also on the satisfaction only found in a truly mechanical system. The user can intervene in the pre-infusion pressure, shot volume and extraction pressure on each group. Leva also greatly improves temperature stability of the traditional lever machine thanks to an innovative PID temperature control. Leva’s digital displays show real time extraction pressure on the coffee puck, the pre-infusion and extraction time as well as the pressure curve of the shot.
