For the first time ever, an espresso machine manufacturer asked the baristas what they wanted.
In an aim to complete the Strada line of models, the Strada EE is characterized by its underlying mechanical and electronic features (semi-automatic technology) built within the design of the Strada. The initials “EE” refer to a feature whereby brewing is activated by the simple start & stop motion of the paddle on the group head, albeit with electronic pre-infusion. The Strada EE model includes individual brew boilers, proportional steam valves featuring anti-suction valves, a thermal stability system and easy-access for preventative maintenance.
Highlights
semi-automatic paddle
The semi-automatic paddle is inspired by the paddle used on most La Marzocco machines since the 1970s. It is controlled with La Marzocco’s classic paddle interface, manually operated by the barista. The initial “EE” refer to a feature whereby brewing is activated by the simple start & stop motion of the paddle on the grouphead, albeit with electronic pre-infusion.
proportional valve technology
Variable solenoid valve control of the steam wand.
programmable preinfusion
Employs a two stage programmable preinfusion process that allows for multiple groups to be in operation at the same time.
Essential features
performance touch steam wands
High performing steam wands that are cool to the touch.
exposed saturated groups
Increased temperature stability, ergonomics and workspace visibility.
independent coffee boilers
Separate boilers for each group head allow baristas to optimize temperature for multiple coffees.
dual pid (coffee and steam)
Allows you to electronically control coffee and steam boiler temperature.
insulated boilers
Reduce energy consumption while contributing to temperature stability.
ruby flow restrictors
Synthetic ruby flow restrictors resist scale formation and erosion.
pre-heating system
Prior to entering into the coffee boiler, water is pre-heated – thus increasing productivity.
paddle interface
La Marzocco’s iconic paddle to activate coffee brewing.
