La 100 is San Marco's multi-group machine: one shared boiler across all groups, not a heat exchanger or a boiler per group. This version has two groups and a 12-litre boiler; the portafilter is chosen at order time in one of two diameters, Ø 54 or Ø 58 mm. It connects in single-phase or three-phase wiring.
It comes in two setups: one with an electronic display, a shot timer and advanced performance monitoring; the other with a touch display, which adds electronic control of the boiler water temperature. LED lighting under the work surface is standard.
Optional extras include the automatic steam wand (Autosteam, left side only), a cup warmer, and a Bluetooth remote-control app (touch display only). It's a machine built for choosing the right setup for your counter: number of groups, portafilter diameter and display type are all decided when ordering.

Pros and cons
In favour
Worth knowing
