La Marzocco - GB 5
La Marzocco - GB 5
elegant design married with proven reliability.
The GB5 has redefined the standard for temperature stability in modern espresso equipment.
Equipped with a CPU board and designed for superior temperature control, the GB5 combines gracious lines and harmonious curves with powerful technological advancements, in line with classic La Marzocco design and spirit. The machine is an understated companion to any coffee bar.
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.
Its unmatched temperature stability provide steady brew water and steam even at the peak of the morning rush.
The GB5 has redefined the standard for temperature stability in modern espresso equipment in light of “PID” technology.
The new GB5 S features a revamped visual identity which 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 the need for additional testing tools.
A comprehensive update to the technical and stylistic workings of an industry icon.
Features :
Dual boilers
Separate boilers optimize espresso brewing and steam production.
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.
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.
Pro touch steam wands – special order
High performing steam wands that are cool to the touch.
Digital display
Intuitive programming makes it easy to adjust machine parameters.
Programmable doses – 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
Making it possible to update the firmware.
Dimmable barista lights – av, abr
3-stage customizable intensity led lights for Eco, On and Brewing modes.
Eco mode
Can be programmed to enter stand-by mode, improving energy efficiency.
Note : The PID Controller employs an algorithm to regulate when and for how long the heating element is engaged in the brew boiler.
The PID controller allows more efficient and stable regulation of energy. With this level of control, temperature variability is reduced dramatically, making for a more consistent brew temperature. The barista is able to adjust the brew boiler temperature to a precise numerical value using a simple keypad without having to remove machine panels.
GB5 X
The GB5 X is designed with traditional European style and is dedicated for those locations with an eye on classic aesthetics but that still demand the highest level of performance.
The GB5 X can be identified by the white logos and lilies, it combines advanced La Marzocco proprietary electronics with the industry-leading temperature stability and hydraulic systems to always ensure maximum consistency.
The machine features independent boilers allowing for different brewing temperatures on each group; a convenient hot water economizer to set the hot water temperature as well as a dynamic pre-heater for additional and unsurpassed temperature stability.
In ABR configuration the GB5 X is La Marzocco’s most elegant machine equipped with patented scale technology.
