FEATURES
AutoVolumetrics
Identical to the commercial espresso machines. Program and dial in 4 specific recipes for your specific needs. La Marzocco has one of the best autovolumetrics on the market providing great consistency in the cup.
New Cool Touch Steam Wands
The inside of the wand has been changed from a teflon tubing to a double walled steel. Theses changes improve both convenience and steaming power.
PID System
The machine makes use of the PID (Proportional, Integral, Derivative) temperature control system for the coffee boiler. The temperature can be adjusted by the user in a range from 85C to 100C .
Controls
The La Marzocco GS3 features a digital display with clock and below the display is the user friendly keypad with icons. You will find the hot water dispenser and hot water lever close to the keypad. The keypad icons, from left to right, stand for espresso, double espresso, coffee, double coffee, programming and tea. When in programming mode, the espresso and double espresso buttons stand for a down arrow and an up arrow, respectively. The coffee button is used to access certain menus, the double coffee button has no programming function, and the tea button is used to turn the GS3 on and off.
The La Marzocco GS3 's saturated group results in more stable brew temperature. Because the La Marzocco group is integrated with the brew boiler (and thus "saturated" by the water within that boiler), there are fewer issues with the group cooling when idle, as one commonly sees in other groups.
Steaming
Full commercial capability with no sacrifice.
Hot Water Reservoir
The La Marzocco features a large water reservoir which holds about 3.5 liters of water. The model is plumbable, so you can connect it straight to your home 's water supply. To keep your coffee tasting fresh, remember to rinse and clean the water tank with warm soapy water or in the dishwasher about once a month.
