La Marzocco FB80 2 Group Auto-Volumetric

80 Years of Innovation, Perfected for Consistency

The La Marzocco FB80 2 Group AV celebrates eight decades of espresso excellence with a machine engineered for cafés that demand shot-to-shot consistency. This anniversary edition combines GB/5 thermal engineering with programmable volumetric dosing, allowing your team to deliver identical extractions across every shift.

Your newest team member pulls the same exceptional shot as your most experienced barista.
