With a history dating back to 2005, the second generation GB5 continues the spirit of the GB5 line: an espresso machine rooted in classic European design, coupled with top performance. The new GB5 S has a renewed visual identity that modernizes the espresso machine without sacrificing looks, premium feel or dynamic elegance. The two red lilies on the side shields recall the company's Florentine heritage, while the front panel has been redesigned to increase the group's visibility. The second generation GB5 is the first series of La Marzocco espresso machines equipped with a water sensor that measures the conductivity and hardness of the water entering the espresso machine. This information allows the user to monitor water quality and verify filtration performance without the need for additional testing tools.
