Gaggia RI8760/18 Anima Automatic Bean to Cup Coffee Machine – Black, Stainless Steel, 1850 W

Product Information

Adjust the grind size among the 5 available selections by pushing and turning the knob inside the beans container with the key, only when the grinders are working.

Coffee machine with a milk container: pour the mixture into the milk container and activate the hot steam/milk function.The great thing with the Gaggia machines is that if you slide off the Panarello to reveal the metal steam pipe, this works fine as a pro steam wand, for producing great microfoam. When it comes to double shots of espresso, you press the espresso button twice, and it will grind the corresponding amount of coffee to whatever setting you have it on, for instance, if it's set to default, it'll grind 7g of espresso, then pour whatever volume of espresso you have it set to (default being 25g) – it will then grind another 7g, and then pour another 25g of espresso.

So, let’s put this machine head-to-head with a couple of other affordable super automatic espresso machines. Brings home the mastery of a professional barista together with the innovation of a fully automatic machine, allowing you to re-discover the pleasure of the authentic Italian espresso at the touch of just one button. There are only two moans on the build quality front: the steam wand both looks and feels plasticky and cheap, and the adjustable dispense head also fails to inspire confidence.Select among 5 options to customize your espresso, from the finest grind for a strong taste, to the coarsest for a lighter coffee. Similarly to the Brera it has simple buttons and little in the way of frills, as a result it’s one of Gaggias best bean to cup machines where value for money is concerned, and it’s also very durable.
