Designed with the expertise of the world's top baristas, the La Marzocco Strada is the culmination of an extensive two-year collaboration. Known as the 'Street Team', these thirty coffee experts inspired the Strada's name—Italian for street—and its advanced features. A cutting-edge conical valve system meticulously manages water flow and pressure for progressive control, while the innovative paddle valve enables pre-infusion even when another group is in mid-extraction. Such precision minimizes channeling, leading to a well-rounded and balanced espresso.
