“Bean to Cup” Coffee Machines are coffee machines which can make a coffee every time from freshly ground coffee beans with just the press of a button. This type of coffee machine has come a long way since its first development over 35 years ago and is now considered as a credible alternative for the traditional machine, even amongst the most enthusiastic barista or traditionalist.
Firstly, all bean to cup coffee machines come with a bean hopper to hold the coffee beans in readiness to grind on demand. When set to work by “pressing the button” these type of coffee machines will grind the exact amount of coffee beans required as they have their own built in grinder.It will then dose, tamp and infuse the now ground coffee automatically giving you the freshest coffee every time. More importantly, with “Bean to Cup” machines you can choose any coffee bean you like to make your coffee – you may even want to make your own coffee bean blend. Also coffee beans are less expensive than ground coffee and keep better for a longer period for freshness
Another feature of “Bean to Cup” machines is that once the coffee has been dispensed the used coffee disc puck is ejected into a dreg draw compartment within the machine – which means that you don’t inadvertently create any mess in the preparation of your coffee.
Furthermore, with your Gaggia you have the advantage of once you have set the machine to dispense the coffee the way you like your coffee the coffee machine will remember and brew and serve the coffee almost exactly the same every time which is not always possible with manual traditional machines, even if you are the best barista in the world!
Another advantage of purchasing a Gaggia “Bean to Cup” coffee machine is that all Gaggia coffee machines have a removable brewing unit. This means that you can take the entire brewing mechanism out of the machine and wash it under running water before putting it back inside the machine making it easy to clean and keep clean.
With all these fantastic features a Gaggia has why not come and “Test Drive” a machine in one of our shops or in our head office showroom and see how easy it is and you will then see what you have been missing !!!!
