Performance

This coffee maker is a powerful machine that guarantees you a nearly perfect cup of espresso just like those made with some of the most top notch coffee makers in the market such as the Rancilio Silvia. The Gaggia 14101 Classic Espresso machine has so much pressure release after a single pull, that you can have several shots in a row. This coffee maker has also received glowing reviews due to its stellar performance from its users and critiques, for example, in CNNMoney.com, the editors agreed about its wonderful performance, saying that ” it is nearly perfect, with a robust, rich flavour and that subtly viscous consistency that extinguishes espresso from plain ol’ joe”.

Simple, easy controls

The Gaggia 14101 Classic Espresso Machine has the advantage of having controls that are very easy to use. Unlike other coffee machines, it has simple and easy to use controls, which are actually ideal for beginners who are just beginning to learn the art of making espresso. The newbies can use Easy Serving Espresso pods as they are learning the delicate art of making perfect espresso. On the flip side, this machine can also be used by veterans, who can use ground coffee to make their nice, fresh steaming cup of espresso. Unfortunately, this espresso machine does not have a water tank with calibrations to assist you measuring the correct water levels, so you would have to be extremely attentive when putting in the water, which is about 72 ounces in the removable water reservoir.

Features

This espresso machine has brass portafilters and grouphead which maintains constant temperature. It also contains a high voltage aluminum boiler, which enhances its performance, a hot water dispenser and a plastic frothing wand. However, not too many consumers have been pleased by the aluminum boiler and the plastic wand citing that they may not last as long as the entire coffee maker, but this has not happened to anyone’s espresso machine. A great advantage to the Gaggia 14101 Espresso machine is that due to its boiler parts being located outside the water reservoir, calcification and corrosion are less likely to occur especially on the aluminum parts.

Value for money

This espresso maker comes at an advantageous discount, which puts it at a great value for money rapport, for the quality of espresso you will be getting out of it. It is actually almost half the price of majority of top notch espresso makers in the market. Its stainless steel finish, albeit box shaped, is guaranteed to blend in with almost any interior décor, therefore it will not clash with anything around your house. Overall, the Gaggia 1101 Classic Espresso machine is a great product to buy if you love espresso.
