La Marzocco KB90: The Pinnacle of Espresso Machines for Discerning Cafés
The La Marzocco KB90 is the definitive machine for the most discerning café. With scales that instantaneously provide the weight of your shot, direct-in portafilters, and cool-touch steam wands, no other machine in the industry offers such manual attention to detail combined with efficient, automated solutions.
Precision and Consistency
With Auto Brew Ratio (ABR), you can weigh your dose directly on the machine and extract the perfect shot based on your programmed ratio. Dose variation will not affect your ratio, ensuring consistency and repeatability with every shot.
In Mass Mode, you provide a specific dose and program the desired yield in time and grams. This high-speed mode allows for exacting standards for every variable in the dialing-in process.
These are just two methods for achieving perfection with this incredible machine, which will transform the quality and flow of your shop.

Features
The KB90 represents the ultimate evolution of the Linea PB form, designed to optimize workflow for baristas in the world’s busiest cafés by enhancing the ergonomics and features of the machine. Named after our Board Chairman, Kent Bakke, the KB90 embodies his vision of creating machines that make baristas’ lives easier and more efficient.
-
Straight-In Portafilter: This feature simplifies the motions required to engage the portafilter and reduces strain on the barista by 12 times, significantly improving performance and usability in high-volume environments. It also helps mitigate repetitive stress injuries and enhances workflow and output.
-
Auto Steam Flush: After each extraction, steam from the steam boiler purges the brew path, followed by a hot water flush, keeping the group clean even during the busiest hours. This function minimizes coffee residue in the group and reduces the need for backflushing during service.
-
Auto Brew Ratio with Drip Prediction: Precision scales in the drip tray improve beverage consistency by stopping extraction based on mass. The Drip Prediction algorithm enhances shot accuracy and simplifies dialing in.
-
Independent Boilers: Separate boilers for each group head allow baristas to optimize the temperature for individual coffees.
Engineering Excellence
- Dual Boiler System: Separate boilers optimize espresso brewing and steam production.
- PID Temperature Controller: Allows for electronic control of coffee and steam boiler temperatures.
- Saturated Group Design: Ensures unsurpassed thermal stability, shot after shot.
- Thermal Stability System: Preheats brew water before it enters the boiler, enhancing temperature stability.
Ergonomics
- Steam Flush: This keeps the group clean by automatically bursts of steam and flushing hot water between extractions.
- Pro Touch Steam Wands: High-performing steam wands that remain cool to the touch.
- Easy Rebuild Steam Valve: Engineered for easy servicing directly from the front of the machine.
- Hot Water Economizer: Allows you to fine-tune the tap water temperature for rinsing.
- Digital Display: Intuitive programming makes it easy to adjust machine parameters.
- Barista Lights: LED lighting enhances focus on extraction and the cup.
Options
- Auto Brew Ratio/Drip Prediction (Optional): Precision scales in the drip tray improve beverage consistency by stopping extraction based on mass. The Drip Prediction algorithm enhances shot accuracy and simplifies dialing in.
