La Marzocco Strada EP 1 Group Espresso Coffee Machine – Commercial

Over the course of two years, La Marzocco worked with thirty of the world’s finest coffee professionals to design a truly special brewing appliance. This team was known as the “Street Team”, and the “Strada” model (Italian for “street”) was named in their honour. The lower profile of this model invites customer engagement in a café setting, while also providing the barista with an open, expansive work area. The platform of “Strada” has been designed to encourage creativity and customisation so that each machine can look unique. The model is available in 5 different configurations to meet the specific needs of baristas and cafés around the world.
