designed for and by baristas
In addition to La Marzocco's distinctive features like saturated brew groups, stainless steel boilers and PID system, the Strada is a new machine that allows the barista, for the first time, to have absolute and direct control of pressure at any point during extraction! Strada is a machine designed for and by baristas created with continuous design involvment by the La Marzocco Street Team, a panel of leading baristas, technicians and market experts from around the world, who gathered to partecipate in such topics as: machine design and ergonomics, extraction and quality in the cup, programmability and serviceability.
