La Marzocco GB 5 S Auto Brew Ratio ABR 2 Group
Overview:
The second-generation La Marzocco GB5 carries on the spirit of its predecessors: a machine rooted in classical European design coupled with cutting-edge performance. The new GB5 S features a revamped visual identity and modernizes the machine without sacrificing the look, premium feel, or dynamic elegance.
Two red lilies on side shields recall Florentine heritage, while the front panel has been redesigned to increase group visibility. the GB5 S is the first series of machines equipped with a water sensor that measures conductivity and hardness as it enters the machine; this information allows users to monitor water quality and verify filtration performance without the need for additional testing tools

Couldn’t be happier with the performance, looks, and build quality.

After 5 years with Gaggia Classic I upgraded to La Marzocco on demand. The improvement was huge. The flavor profile became instantly balanced and full. The R O K hand grinder I have been using just couldn’t quite reach this result. Impressive grinder.

I am a novice to intermediate home espresso hobbiest. This is my first prosumer grinder. Setup was easy as could be, and the build quality is supreme. I am an engineer and work with precision scientific equipment. I compare the build quality and operation to much of the lab and research machines I work with everyday.

After a bit of tinkering and adjustment I found this unit to be leaps and bounds above anything I have had in the past. A commercial machine at 30 lbs of high end Italian engineering

Once I figured it out, it’s a great grinder and very easy to adjust
Martins Budreiko –
fantastic grinder! very expensive! I hope I never need to buy a new one. This is for a home rig and necessary for my new Expobar Office Lever. My old grinder made “salt”. This one makes “powder”.
Riccardo Pellegrino –
The grinder works like an expensive piece of equipment should but the hopper is wobbly because the set screw doesn’t secure it very well.
