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.

It’s the perfect addition to my Rocket Appartmento. Once you dial in the right grind for the beans your using, this grinder is seemless and quiet. You will need to adjust the timer and grind size if you change out beans (take notes of your adjustments). The chute narrows leaving no mess of grounds straight into the portafilter, I found other grindRead more about review stating Simple, quiet, awesome.ers to spray grounds out to the sides and cause a mess when grinding. The settings and usage are also very simple.

Very low sound level, doesn’t wake the whole house up.
I replaced my Rancilio Rocky with this machine. My reason for choosing this machine was the sound level while grinding and the bean hopper, which holds a full bag of beans. The function buttons are easy to use and once you have your grind set you can lock the buttons. My only suggestion isRead more about review stating Very low sound level, doesn’t that while you are adjusting the grind to keep weighing it as a coarser setting will weigh more than a finer setting. It took me about 15 adjustments before I got it to where I was satisfied.

Very happy with this grinder. No surprises except the touch screen doesnt like wet fingers (for example, if you rinse out the portafilter and go in for a second espresso). Unit was packed well for shipping and was delivered with the rest of my order.
