Gaggia RI8760/18 Anima Automatic Bean to Cup Coffee Machine – Black, Stainless Steel, 1850 W

Product Information

Brings home the mastery of a professional barista together with the innovation of a fully automatic machine, allowing you to re-discover the pleasure of the authentic Italian espresso at the touch of just one button. It is possible to customize and memorize the length of coffee simply by pressing and holding the button for a few seconds until “MEMO” is displayed.

The Anima allows for precise control of the dose of coffee, as well as having the steam arm and hot water dispensing options from their manual machines - allowing for more complex coffee drinks to be made. This is adjusted by using the Aroma Strength button on the front panel and choosing the bean icon on the display. Moreover, the integrated 100% ceramic grinders let you have freshly ground coffee at every use and preserve all the aromas. Today, Gaggia is here to meet all of your expectations, regardless of whether you’re looking for the simplicity of a bean-to-cup appliance or chasing after the status of a true home barista.You can find all compatible maintenance products below, under the section labeled "Related Products. Built around Gaggia's patented, removable, brewing unit, the Anima also has a ceramic grinder, and a 15 bar pump to produce tasty, crema-laden espresso every time.

We are a family owned, speciality, tea and coffee merchant offering everything needed to experience the very best tea and coffee.This bean-to-cup machine does all the hard work, promising barista-quality espresso at the touch of a button. It's top loading, vs the front loading water tank on the Brera, and whether a front loading or top loading tank would work better for you would depend on whether you're putting your coffee machine under kitchen cupboards. I have the volume set to 18g (which I did using brew scales, but you can also do roughly with an espresso glass with measurements) so two shots from 9g to 18 results in a total of 36g of espresso extracted from 18g of dry coffee. As with the Brera, this is Gaggia Direct's showroom model that they've packed up and sent me to use for the review, so I wasn't setting it up for the first time, but I went through the instructions as if I was, and it was a complete doddle. Rather than a separate cappuccinatore with pesky tubes, the Anima Prestige features an integrated carafe that clips onto the front of the machine.

So, if it’s an espresso macchiato you’re after, you can simply program the machine to make a really small cappuccino. Don't just take our word for it; check out all the spare parts and diagrams we've gathered to uphold the sustainability of your new coffee machine.I actually found the way that the steam works, to be quite handy even though it took a bit longer than I'm used to to get going. Chris, a veteran of the British Army and Alice, a former primary school teacher, decided to mix things up and turn their passion of tea and coffee into their profession. Later, in 1977, the company began producing domestic espresso machines, bringing excellent drinks to the kitchens of coffee lovers all over the world.

Gaggia’s patented pannarello wand and the LED interface makes brewing your favorite beverages a breeze. The machine alerts you when it is time to descale it and guides you step by step throughout messages on the display. You won’t experience irritating splashes all over your counter, and you’ll preserve the Gaggia’s lovely crema in your espresso cup. It will grind your coffee beans precisely, and make sure you’re left with the most delicious coffee drink.

I’ve always been very impressed by the quality of the milk foam I’ve prepared using Gaggia machines, and I’m happy to report that nothing’s changed here. The Gaggia and most bean to cup machines have dual spouts that allow you to make two coffees at one time.
