CoffeeKid - Part Two: A long Coffee Road Discussed (#)
„Plus, La Marzocco and their US distributor, Espresso Specialists really have set the bar in terms of supporting Barista competitions. Not only do they bend over backwards to make sure everything's right, but they informally allow Baristi to get some "face time" with machines prior to competitions, either at their showrooms, or their "satellite partners" showrooms. I remember going to ESI's Seattle office and seeing Dismas Smith (Zoka Coffee) training for the World's last year - getting a full day in ESI's showroom, allowed to do pretty much anything he wanted (with Jeff Babcock overseeing everything Dis was doing).“

CoffeeKid - Guide to Espresso Machines
„These can be superb machines in the home, but I do not consider these machines when thinking about newbies and espresso. These are manual espresso machines, requiring a high degree of barista skills for the production of consistent, first rate espresso. Consider a lever or spring piston machine after you have some experience under your belt. Models include the Micro Cimbali and Elektra Micro Casa Leva (both spring piston machines), and the La Pavoni Europiccola, Professional, and Romantica machines (lever piston machines, no spring).“

CoffeeKid - The Ultimate: La Marzocco
„Pretty much every true commercial espresso machine is based on the 220V or 308V power draw. The same stuff that may power your dryer or stove. Espresso machines need this kind of power because of what they do: they have to quickly heat up at least 6 litres of water (on up to 17.5 litres or more) very, very fast, and they have to maintain that kind of heat (something called quick recovery).“

CoffeeKid - Later On July Musings in Coffee and Espresso
„Why it's training, one person at a time, a core of teenaged boys and girls (girls so far) how to be a Barista! :) Jeanette's studio for her Piano School is next to our house, and her students sometimes wander into the labs in the basement, and are intrigued by the big La Marzocco. So I jump all over that, and give them impromptu lessons. So far, I have four "disciples" and counting.“

CoffeeKid - More Adventures in CoffeeLand
„Here's the very, very sad news: the best espresso shot we had out of all the shops we hit was... a Starbucks. And it wasn't the Starbucks espresso, pulled on their La Marzocco Linea machine.“
