Pros
- Milk Island - This handy frothing attachment stands up well against manual frothing and is relatively easy to clean.
- Stainless Case - While most superautomatics feature ABS plastic, this model sports a good amount of stainless steel.
- Espresso Plus System - For those who demand total control, turn this dial to regulate the intensity of your coffee.
|
Cons
- Turnstyle controls - The iPod-styled interface on this model may not be for everyone.
- Oil-Free- Like most superautomatics, the grinder is not oily bean friendly. Try a medium espresso roast for optimum results.

Components & Functionality
|
- Exterior - Hands
down, the Platinums exterior stands out from the competition. Gaggia
incorporated a stainless steel front panel into their design as an
element the consumer expects from a high-end appliance.
-
Espresso Plus System - Regulate the intensity of your coffee with the simple turn of a dial.
An exclusive system allows the user to adjust the body and the
intensity of any coffee blend from mild to more intense, depending on
the individuals preferences, all while maintaining a perfect crema.
- Milk Island - The Milk Island is Gaggias latest answer to milk frothing. It is clean,
consistent and easy to use. The Milk Island is an optional unit that is
connected to the coffee machine and becomes part of the steam system.
Just pour the milk in the jug, turn the steam knob and the machine does
the rest. The result: creamy frothed and steamed milk, perfect for a
traditional cafe style cappuccino. The Milk Island can be cleaned
easily and has a total capacity of .4 liters (included).
- Revolving Frothing Wand - The exclusive revolving frother is always ready to deliver hot water or
steam for a menu of drinks such as lattes, cappuccinos, americanos, and
more. Mounted on a ball joint, it accommodates any size pitcher and is
easy to maneuver.
-
Ceramic Coffee Grinder - The ceramic burr coffee grinder assures quiet functioning, high
performance and a consistent grind each time. This grinder not only
enhances the functions of the machine, but its ceramic construction
ensures longevity and flavorful beverages.
- Aqua Prima Filter - The Aqua Prima water filter was developed to remove impurities from
your water. The result is fresh, clean tasting coffee every time. The
Aqua Prima water filter also reduces the formation of lime scale in the
machine, protecting your boiler and brewing components.
- Removable Water Reservoir - The 80 oz water reservoir slides out easily from the side of the
machine. Made of durable plastic, it can be hand washed for the
freshest-tasting coffee. The Gaggia Platinum machines will alert you
when the water tank needs to be refilled.
- Removable Brewing Unit - The
brew group is removable for easy maintenance -- just rinse it under
running water to clean out any coffee oils and residue. Made of sturdy
black plastic, it locks back into place for consistent brewing. Your
Gaggia Platinum machine also includes brew group lubricant.
- Cup Warmer - Brewing
espresso into a warm cup helps preserve the thick layer of golden crema
on top of each shot. Use the cup warmer located on top of the machine
to display and pre-heat cups before brewing.
