KB90
La MarzoccoThe KB90 is the ultimate evolution of the Linea PB form. Designed to optimize the workflow for the barista in the world’s busiest bars by improving the ergonomics and features of the machine.
The KB90 is named for the Board Chairman, Kent Bakke. 20 years ago, Kent imagined one of the most exciting new features of the KB90, the Straight-in Portafilter. Kent has always seen La Marzocco’s mission to create machines that make the lives of the barista easier and more efficient, and the KB90 embodies this philosophy.
If you have been into a NYC cafe or coffee house then you have probably seen a La Marzocco espresso machine on the counter. La Marzocco has become synonymous with specialty coffee. And with good reason. Take a look through the line up of some of the best espresso machines available to NYC.
