The La Marzocco Linea PB AV was designed by and named in honor of Piero Bambi — a refinement of the iconic Linea Classic that takes La Marzocco's most trusted workhorse and brings it decisively into the modern era. The Linea Classic earned its place as a specialty coffee standard over twenty-five years of daily service in some of the world's best cafés. The Linea PB builds on that foundation with improved electronics, upgraded thermal engineering, and a more intuitive interface, all while preserving the dependability and shot quality that built the original's reputation. Available in 2-group and 3-group configurations.

At the core of the Linea PB AV is programmable volumetric dosing — two programmable dose buttons per group plus a continuous flush button, giving baristas repeatable output with minimal manual input. Separate brew and steam boilers optimize performance for each task independently, while saturated group heads and Piero Group Caps ensure water never leaves the coffee boiler during extraction, delivering unsurpassed thermal stability shot after shot.

Why Choose the La Marzocco Linea PB AV

• Dual Boiler System – Separate brew and steam boilers work independently for optimized espresso and milk production simultaneously.
• Saturated Group Heads with Piero Group Caps – Water stays in the coffee boiler throughout extraction, ensuring unsurpassed thermal stability from the first shot to the last.
• Dual PID Temperature Control – Electronically control both coffee and steam boiler temperatures to within ±0.5°C.
• Programmable Auto-Volumetric Dosing – Two programmable dose buttons per group plus a continuous flush button for repeatable, consistent output.
• Temperature Display, Shot Timers & Flow Pulse Counter – Built-in display gives baristas real-time feedback and simplifies parameter adjustments.
• SmartSteam – Adds a temperature sensor to the steam wand that automatically cuts pressure when milk reaches the target temperature, ensuring consistent microfoam every time.
• Auto Back-Flush Program – Automated group cleaning simplifies daily maintenance in high-volume environments.
• Eco Mode – Programs the machine into standby at lower boiler temperatures when not in use, improving energy efficiency.
• Ruby Flow Restrictors – Synthetic ruby construction resists scale buildup and erosion for long-term performance reliability.
• Barista LED Lights – Illuminates the work area for better visibility during extraction and cup handling.
• High Legs – Raises the machine 3 inches for easier access beneath for cleaning and maintenance.
