Congratulations on your wise choi-
ce!
As the proud owner of the Gaggia machine,

cup of espresso or cappuccino in the comfort of

Espresso coffee, originally created in Italy, is
made by rapidly forcing water that has been
heated to the correct brewing temperature,
through a special finely ground coffee.
The heart of the espresso machine is a precision
engineered pump.
The pump and water flow is easily controlled
with just a flick of the switch.
