For very many moments of pleasure

So far we had a capsule machine whose coffee good, but their espresso was mediocre to moderate well.
By comparison, the Gaggia espresso machine needs naturally a lot more space - and it is also much more difficult, which definitely speaks for the material (Stainless Steel), but also the Espresso compared tastes really fantastic!
And that's my opinion also the most important valuation feature an espresso machine.
Full-bodied and delicious coffee flavor with a fine but firm Crema. Even milk foam for latte macchiato and Co can be prepared easily.
The only drawback (which also led to a star deduction :) The insertion of the portafilter is relatively difficult and clamps and unfortunately hooked something. The pressure is 15 bar perfect and the water tank with its 2.1 liters is sufficient and does not need to be constantly filled.
It is important that regular descaling of the machine is recommended to eg pure citric acid from the drug store.

My Conclusion:
+ Great and very delicious espresso
+ Milk frother
+ Great design
+ Easy to clean
+ A quality image (in my opinion)
- Use portafilter difficult
