Product Overview

Equipped with proprietary La Marzocco electronics and advanced temperature stability, the GB5 S AV ABR blends classical European design with cutting-edge performance. Since its original release in 2005, it has been modernized to serve as an elegant companion for any coffee bar.

Key Design Features

• Florentine Heritage – Two red lilies on the side shields pay homage to La Marzocco’s Florentine roots.
• Partially Exposed Groups – Offers a streamlined barista working experience.
• Advanced Controls – Baristas can adjust boiler temperature, brewing volume, hot water tap dose, and automatic cleaning cycles to maintain high-quality coffee even during peak hours.

Auto-Brew Ratio (ABR) Technology

The GB5 AV ABR includes Auto-Brew Ratio (ABR) functionality. This allows baristas to program a desired dose into optional built-in scales in the drip tray, which are directly wired to the machine, ensuring consistent output every time.

The GB5 S AV's attributes make pulling shots and steaming milk at the same time simpler and faster than ever.
