Now Available at Ace Coffee Roasters

At Ace Coffee Roasters, we don’t just serve exceptional coffee—we empower you to create it. The La Marzocco GS3 Mechanical Paddle (MP) is the pinnacle of home espresso performance, delivering commercial-grade power, control, and craftsmanship in a form factor fit for the passionate home barista.

Crafted by La Marzocco’s world-renowned engineers in Florence, Italy, the GS3 MP brings the same uncompromising quality trusted by cafés around the globe into your personal space. Designed for espresso perfectionists and aficionados, this machine is built to highlight the nuanced flavours and aromatic depth of specialty coffee—exactly how we roast it.

Features

  • Dual Boiler System: Independent boilers for brewing and steaming ensure perfect temperature stability and simultaneous operation—ideal for back-to-back drinks without compromise.

  • PID Temperature Control: Precision digital control over your brew boiler temperature means absolute consistency with every shot.

  • Saturated Grouphead & Pre-Infusion: A commercial saturated group ensures thermal stability, while programmable pre-infusion allows for gentle extraction and enhanced clarity in the cup.

  • Mechanical Paddle Control: Experience tactile, hands-on espresso pulling with the manual paddle system—giving you more direct control over your shot.

  • Cool Touch Steam Wand: High-power steam and professional microfoam production meet safe, ergonomic handling. Cleanup is quick and effortless.

  • Large 3.5L Internal Reservoir: Designed for flexibility and ease of use, the GS3 can be run with the included reservoir or plumbed directly to your water line.

  • Customizable Aesthetics: Personalize your GS3 with wood or glass panels, powder-coated finishes, custom feet and more. Contact us for custom design options to suit your space and style.

Unlike many machines marketed to home users, the GS3 is constructed with commercial-grade stainless steel internals—including portafilters and boiler systems—offering longevity, resistance to off-flavours, and consistent thermal performance for years to come.

At Ace Coffee Roasters, our approach to espresso is rooted in precision, quality, and flavour. We trust the GS3 to bring out the full potential of our coffees—whether you’re exploring light-roasted Ethiopian naturals or dialing in a syrupy single-origin espresso from Guatemala.

Whether you’re upgrading your home setup or building out a premium coffee station in a boutique setting, the GS3 MP stands as the benchmark for uncompromised espresso.
