La Marzocco GS3 Remodel

The La Marzocco GS3 MP is a handmade, dual-boiler coffee machine packed with great features. The most notable is the adjustable paddle on top of the brew head. The paddle controls the flow rate through the coffee grounds during extraction, allowing full control over every shot.

Sophistication aside, this baby isn’t scoring any points for its looks. Luckily, La Marzocco have made these machines with customisation in mind.

The good folks at Specht Design completed a custom re-model for me just in time for Easter. With brass fittings and walnut panels that match my kitchen, it produces espresso just as good as it looks.
