Gaggia Classic Best Coffee Maker For Home Baristas

Saturday Dec 6, 2008

I have owned my Gaggia Classic espresso machine for over three years now. It is used to make two to four cups daily . I owned my own very busy coffee shop for years and this machine offers the opportunity to use your own skills to create coffee to suit your taste.

The unit uses standard 58 mm filters in a commercial grade group handle made of heavy-duty marine-grade brass with chrome plating to provide ample room for brewing rich,full espresso.

It has commercial-grade stainless steel construction a high-power 17-1/2-bar pump with a high-voltage boiler for quick warm-up times.


The Gaggia Classic is supplied with single- and double-shot stainless-steel filter baskets, coffee tamper, and 7-gram measuring scoop. Its 72-ounce water reservoir is removable for easy filling or cleaning.


The steam arm comes with a frothing unit but i quickly discarded this because of cleaning and lack of control although if you are a novice the frother works very well.I contacted the Gaggia importer and they kindly sent me an extended steam arm so I could control the frothing of milk myself. I can create my own Latte and cappuccino now.

My machine has been extremly reliable I accredit this to the superb build quality and I always cool and quickly clean the machine after every use while my milk is settling. I was talking to my local coffee machine repair man recently and he suggested the Gaggia Classic as the best Home Coffee Maker even before he knew I owned one.

A very simple to use robust machine the Gaggia Classic will complement any Kitchen so long as you like stainless steel appliances. No other colour option available as far as I know.


You can match and more likley beat the quality of coffee from your local coffee shop with this great little best coffee maker.
