CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR CHOICE!
Thanks to the new Gaggia Classic machine, you will become a real home barista and rediscover the traditional
gestures of espresso professionals during each coff ee break. When using Classic Coff ee machine, it is important to
pay attention to every detail, just like when using a professional bar machine: the machine must be very hot and
the fi lter holder must always be installed to maintain a homogeneous temperature in the brew unit. Furthermore,
the coff ee must be ground fi nely but not too much, the right amount of ground coff ee must be placed in the fi lter
and it must be pressed with just the right intensity, to prevent the coff ee from coming out too quickly, but not too
much as this would make brewing very diffi cult.
The new Classic features a fi lter holder unit and a steam wand just like professional machines.
