With a machine this powerful in your kitchen, your home will quickly become your favourite cafe.
Description
Overview
La Marzocco’s GS/3 is one of the best home machines available today, and its powerful boilers and state-of-the-art heating systems provide the true experience of a cafe in your kitchen. Unlike most other dual boiler machines, the GS/3 uses a saturated brew group in order to perfectly control the temperature of your extraction. This version of the machine is equipped with a mechanical paddle (MP), allowing you the freedom to experiment with preinfusion times and volumes in order to craft your ideal espresso shot.
La Marzocco was founded in 1927 by brothers Bruno and Giuseppe Bambi in Florence, Italy. Innovation and originality set La Marzocco apart from the competition, and their past contributions to the manufacturing of espresso machines have helped to shape today’s industry standards. Set up your favourite cafe in your own kitchen with the GS/3 MP, one of the most powerful home espresso machines on the market.
Combining a saturated brew group with a powerful 3.5L steam boiler, PID for temperature control, manual paddle control, adjustable brew pressure, and smartphone compatibility, this fully equipped commercial quality machine provides the best experience in terms of quality and artisanship.
A programmable start time, remote on and off, temperature control, and pre-infusion setting are just a few of the many features available through the GS/3’s smartphone app, making it one of the more advanced machines we carry while still preserving the analog beauty of a traditional commercial espresso machine.

- 3.5L steam boiler
- 1.5L saturated grouphead

A large, 3.5L steam boiler provides commercial-grade steam power.
A saturated group and 1.5L coffee boiler create superior temperature stability. Saturated groups create the best possible temperature stability, for the best possible espresso shots.
The GS/3 uses a commercial-grade rotary pump. With the included plumb-in kit, you can avoid the inconvenience of having to refill a water reservoir daily. Without one, the reservoir is accessible from the front of the machine so you can refill the GS/3 without having to move it out from under your cupboards.
The machine's PID (or digital thermostat) control monitors boiler temperature, holding it within a couple of degrees all day long so the machine is always ready to brew the perfect shot.
Manually controlled Mechanical Paddle allows you to craft every shot to your exact specifications. This is the control scheme for the espresso artist.
Adjustable brewing pressure with the machine's externally accessible expansion valve.
The GS/3 now comes standard with La Marzocco's 'connected machine' feature. Using their smartphone app, you can program the machine to automatically turn on or off, adjust brewing temperature, adjust the pre-brewing feature, and more.
