La Marzocco was founded in 1927 in Florence, Italy. In 1939, it was La Marzocco that developed and patented the first coffee machine with a horizontal boiler, now an industry standard. Today, La Marzocco remains an artisan company, while offering important advancements in equipment technology to its customers and in the industry.

About the La Marzocco GS3 Espresso Machine

The La Marzocco engineering group set out to take the most advanced La Marzocco technology and translate it for a home espresso machine. The GS3 features the thermal stability system used in the La Marzocco Strada, including a preheating system, digital PID controller, saturated groups, a dual-boiler system, and digital display. These features make for a luxury espresso preparation platform: everything you could hope for as someone who wants to enjoy the best-quality espresso at home. All that’s left for you to do is to grind, dose, and tamp.

Pair the GS3 with La Marzocco's own Pico grinder to make a powerful home combo that will make incredible tasting coffee.

La Marzocco GS3 - AV vs. MP

The La Marzocco GS3 comes in two versions. The AV or Automatic version features volumetric functionality. This means you can set the volume of water you want to use for your espresso and the machine brews accordingly.

The MP or Manual Paddle version incorporates a paddle-based extraction system like the type you find on the Strada. Combined with a periscope-style pressure gauge, this allows you to manually pressure-profile your espresso. In other words you can vary the brew time and the brew pressure during the course of the extraction, to completely optimise your espresso!
