La Spaziale S2 Spazio 2 Group Tall Cup Espresso Machine
The La Spaziale S2 Spazio 2 Group TA combines the narrow Spazio chassis with added clearance for taller takeaway cups. It is designed for carts, cafés, bakeries and restaurants that need two brewing groups, programmable volumetric dosing and strong steam capability without giving up excessive counter width.
TA refers to the take-away or tall-cup configuration. The group-to-tray space is increased to accommodate larger vessels, while removable grids can support traditional cups. A 5-liter heat-exchange boiler and two steam wands support simultaneous brewing and milk preparation.
Why Choose the Tall-Cup S2 Spazio?
Designed around takeaway drink sizes
Extra vertical clearance reduces the need to transfer espresso from a small cup into a larger serving vessel. That can streamline workflow for 12- and 16-ounce drinks, espresso tonics and other beverages built directly in the service cup.
Compact two-group footprint
At approximately 21.3 inches wide, the Spazio creates two extraction stations in substantially less width than a conventional full-size two-group. Check vertical clearance carefully because the tall-cup body is higher than the standard Spazio.
Volumetric portion control
Program common shot volumes and let the machine stop delivery automatically. Use a scale during setup and periodically verify actual beverage yield rather than assuming programmed water volume never changes.
Choice of 110V or 220V
Both electrical configurations are offered for North American installations. The lower-power configuration may fit some sites more easily, while the higher-power version provides more recovery headroom. Confirm the exact nameplate and circuit.

Menu and Workflow Planning
The tall-cup configuration is valuable only when the menu uses the clearance. Review actual cup heights, including lids and scale placement. Larger milk drinks also increase steam demand, so model the number and size of drinks during the busiest interval.
Leave enough counter space for two grinders if serving regular and decaf espresso, a knock box, pitcher rinser, tamping area and undercounter milk. The machine's compact width should not create a cramped station around it.
Utilities and Water Treatment
Provide the dedicated electrical service shown on the selected unit, a treated water supply, accessible shutoff and compliant drain. For a mobile build, calculate generator, shore-power or battery capacity using every simultaneous load and reserve—not just the espresso machine.
Test water before selecting treatment. Our espresso-machine water guide covers hardness testing and basic planning.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does TA mean?
TA identifies the take-away or tall-cup version with increased group-to-tray clearance.
Can it still use espresso cups?
Yes. Removable or raised grids support shorter cups so espresso does not fall an excessive distance.
Is this machine compact?
It is compact in width for a two-group machine, but it is taller than the standard Spazio. Verify every dimension and service clearance.
Does it run on 110V or 220V?
Both North American configurations are listed. Confirm the exact amperage, plug and recovery requirement for the selected variant.
Does it need plumbing?
Yes. It requires treated direct water and a drain.
Is the boiler large enough for a café?
The 5-liter boiler can suit smaller and space-limited operations, but capacity must be modeled from peak milk-drink demand. A full-size 10-liter S2 may be better for concentrated rushes.
Does it have automatic shot stopping?
Yes. It is an electronic volumetric machine with programmable portions and manual delivery.
What accessories fit the groups?
Use La Spaziale-compatible 53 mm portafilters, baskets and tampers.
