Founded in 1927 by Giuseppe and Bruno Bambi, La Marzocco had its beginnings in Florence, Italy. In 1939, it was La Marzocco that developed and patented the first coffee machine with a horizontal boiler, now an industry standard. This was the first of a series of important innovations, later to include the dual-boiler system with saturated brewing groups. Tradition and a passion in the search for quality and superior reliability are factors that have always distinguished and interested the entire company. Even today, highly specialized personnel supervise each stage in the production of every single machine, hand-crafted to order for each and every client. In this way, Giuseppe Bambi’s great experience and professional pride live on after over ninety years.
The clean lines and simple charm of the Linea occupy many of the cafes, roasteries, and chains whose names have defined the industry. The Linea is the classic La Marzocco machine that has supported the development of the specialty coffee industry since 1988. A tried and true machine, the Linea AV, with programmable volumetric dosing provides precise and consistent espresso even in high volume settings and is perfect for your new cafe, bar, or restaurant. Also available with Cronos keypads that further enhance extraction control by prominently displaying extraction time for the barista.
