Linea PB with integrated scales
Finally! We have been waiting for this moment for 6 long years. Since 2012, when the scale under the head of the Strada EP coffee machine was experimentally mounted at Out Of The Box in Milan. As is customary with LM, he tries to test each new technology very honestly. The development of technology with the search for a supplier took a whole 5 years.
After two years, at the end of October, another La Marzocco Out Of The Box took place in Milan. During the three days full of workshops and lectures, new products were presented in the production of this legendary espresso machine maker from Florence.
Precision lever baskets Strada vs LM Advanced basket

La Marzocco Out Of The Box Milano 2013
After a two-year hiatus, another OOTB took place in Milan. Out of the Box - a great coffee holiday, not only for fans of La Marzocco coffee machines. Compared to last year, the venue has changed, which was a wise solution given the expected attendance. More than 3,000 guests from 70 countries arrived
This device is designed primarily for coffee purists and laboratories. Although it does not yet have UL or NSF certification, it is already on the American market, as it is only produced for 110V mains voltage and factory reports are not very optimistic, I do not dare say whether it will be available on the European market.

LM Espresso Line Parts X Streamer Barista Pro Shop
This is how the Linea model can look like. This piece was created in collaboration with Espresso parts and Streamer coffee, who plan to open a network of cafes in Japan.
That's how we met. VST lever baskets are here. We already know from many sources that this works. Now it's up to us to verify that. By using these baskets we should have the espresso better extracted with a minimum of sediment in the cup and much more consistent shots. What more could a barista want? The baskets are designed for La Marzocco coffee machines, which have a basket diameter of 58 mm. Baskets will be available in about 14 days in our e-shop. Who doesn't know this is here: www.coffeesource.eu I look forward to your comments and experiences.
I had the opportunity to try the Strada coffee machine, which breaks our captivity about espresso. I spent two days in the La Marzocco factory on training, where I could focus mainly on this device. Before the training, I read a little bit, watched some videos and so he roughly knew what awaited me. In our store, we use a GS3 coffee machine with a paddle, which also allows you to play with the pressure a bit, but to profile the pressure, as Strada can, it's a long way off.
