La Marzocco FB80 4 Group Auto-Volumetric
Maximum Capacity with Unwavering Consistency
The La Marzocco FB80 4 Group AV represents the pinnacle of volumetric espresso automation, delivering anniversary-edition thermal engineering across four independently programmable brewing stations. This flagship configuration handles the most demanding café environments—convention centers, flagship locations, airport terminals, and high-traffic specialty shops—where 300-500+ espresso drinks daily require absolute consistency regardless of barista experience level. Four groups enable simultaneous multi-drink production while volumetric dosing ensures every shot meets your exact specifications.
Four-Group Volumetric Command
Four programmable groups transform workflow capacity in extreme-volume environments. Assign different recipes across groups—ristretto on one, standard double on two, lungo on three, custom blend on four—then execute with push-button precision. This configuration supports sustained peak-hour service with multiple baristas working simultaneously, maintaining quality standards that would be impossible with manual operation at this volume. The ultimate solution for operations where consistency at scale defines success.
