Hi. I have been thinking about a possible upgrade to the La Marzocco GS3 MP. I have a beverage counter area that I plan to utilize and installed above the counter top is a set of 12" length shelves that are at ~18" above the countertop.

My question is specific to the Manual Paddle model - At what length is the start of the paddle and pressure gauge as measured from the back of the machine? I do not want to have next to no clearance above the pressure gauge in relation to my lowest shelf.

I hope this question makes sense and somebody that owns a GS3 MP might be able to provide me an accurate measurement? Obviously I am hoping the gauge is more than 12" out from the back of the machine.

I have looked at all the spec sheets, manuals, etc and I cannot find anything other than the MP version is 17.5" in total height, which I assume is the top of the paddle pressure gauge.

Thanks!

The center of the group is 18" from the back of the machine.

So you have well over 12 inches.

Cheers!
