What is a Super-Automatic Espresso Machine?
A super-automatic espresso machine will at one touch of a button complete the entire brewing cycle, and be ready to brew again without any manual intervention. A super-automatic espresso machine will grind the coffee beans, deliver an exact amount of coffee to the brew basket, tamp the coffee, pass an exact amount of water through the brew basket, and deliver consistently exceptional espresso to a cup. It will then dispose of the grounds from the brew basket (portafilter) to the dump box.
About the Gaggia Titanium Stainless Steel Super-Automatic Espresso Machine
The present meets the future with the introduction of the Gaggia Super Automatic Espresso Machine, the Titanium. This machine has all the same features that the Gaggia Titanium Espresso Machine except it is made of all stainless steel. This state of the art espresso machine is equipped with two boilers; a stainless steel lined brewing boiler and an additional steaming boiler. Having two boilers eliminates the wait time between brewing and steaming or frothing milk. The Titanium Espresso Machine grinds, tamps and brews espresso at the press of a button, and allows you to follow every step with the easy to read blue back-lit LCD Digital Display. A two-ounce espresso can be made in about 30 seconds. The Gaggia Titanium Espresso Machine provides full control over the brewing process, so that you end up with an espresso that is just to your taste. You have total control over the coffee strength as this machine features an adjustable coffee doser that controls the amount of coffee for each shot and there is a beverage volume control to control the size of the coffee. The espresso temperature can also be controlled, as there are five temperature settings. The coffee grind setting for fineness can be adjusted (there are 18 different settings) with the simple to use external lever. This espresso machine also features a ground coffee by-pass doser that enables you to easily serve decaf or a special request. It can also be programmed to pre-grind or pre-brew. The pre-grinding function allows you to grind coffee for the next two cups, which saves time when making multiple cups of espresso. The pre-brewing process slightly moistens the coffee before the actual brewing begins which brings out a fuller aroma of the coffee. This espresso machine also has an automatic de-calcification cycle. Simply pour de-calcification liquid into the water reservoir and push a button.
Using the Gaggia Titanium Stainless Steel Super-Automatic Espresso Machine - It's Easy to Use
The Gaggia Titanium Espresso machine is easy to use. The 60 oz. water reservoir is removable and has a handle for easy gripping. The reservoir is also easy to access and refill while in the machine. There is a thumb release lever for the brew group that makes removing the brew group easy. There are two ways to create frothed milk. You can use the stainless steel "Turbo Frother" frothing wand that swivels 180 degrees making it easy to use. Or froth milk by using the automatic frothing attachment - it drops pre-frothed milk directly into your cup. It does not get any easier than that! The dispensing spout slides up or down to adjust for different size cups. The dump box is easily accessed from the front by sliding out the drip tray. The digital display will let you know when the tray or the dump box needs to be emptied. This espresso machine even has a swivel base that makes accessing the different parts of the machine, or refilling the water reservoir and bean hopper so easy. No need to lift the machine.
Gaggia Titanium Stainless Steel Super-Automatic Espresso Machine - Built to Last
The Gaggia Titanium Espresso Machine has been built for durability and performance. It features a heavy-duty all metal frame and housing with commercial grade components. Gaggia machines use a 1250 watts heating system that provides for a shorter heat up time. This espresso machine also features a pressure relief system (three-way solenoid valve) that is found on commercial espresso machines. This pressure relief system exists to immediately remove pressure from the portafilter once the espresso shot is completed. This ensures a dryer puck for less mess and easier cleanup. Gaggia espresso machines come with a commercial quality portafilter. The portafilter is made from chrome-plated brass and has excellent heat retention. Every semi-automatic and super automatic Gaggia machine contains a frothing adapter that makes frothing milk easier and eliminates having to "work the milk".
