Gaggia machines and related accessories have been discontinued by Seattle Coffee Gear.
Information provided here is for research and comparison purposes only.
If you're looking for an item that is similar to this, we highly recommend the Jura Capresso Impressa C5.
The Gaggia Titanium (90500) is a gorgeous machine constructed from steel and stainless steel and sporting a unique blue digital readout.
There are three similar Titanium models: the
Titanium (90500) and the Titanium Stainless Steel (SS 90501) and the Titanium Plus (90503).
The Titanium has a stainless steel front while the SS has a fully
stainless steel case (front and sides). The Titanium Plus is identical
to the Titanium with the addition of a crema adjustment knob on the
face of the machine. The Titanium is one of the best looking and most
solidly constructed consumer espresso machines available and will fit
nicely alongside your other stainless appliances.
Although many newer models have been launched into the market since,
the Titanium has stood the test of time. Most manufacturers do not
integrate much, if any, stainless steel into their case designs, making
the Titanium series stand out.

| Crew Review
Pros
- LCD Display - It's time to add beans, water or descale your Titanium! Control the temperature, pre-grind, cup warmer, language and more on this classic, easy to read LCD.
- Stainless Case - While most superautomatics feature ABS plastic, this model sports plenty of stainless steel.
- Bypass Doser - Allows the user to bypass grinder with pre-ground coffee, such as decaf, very helpful when entertaining.
|
Cons
- Clearance - Most manufacturers, including Gaggia, have outfitted their more current models with frothing wands and brew spouts that allow for larger vessels. Tip: The Titanium has a small gate that flips up, allowing the frothing wand to rotate more freely.
- Oil-Free- Like most superautomatics, the grinder is not oily bean friendly. Try a medium espresso roast for optimum results.

Care
For detailed care instructions, please refer to your machine's user
manual. We recommend that you also incorporate the following into your
cleaning routine:
- Descale every 2 - 3 months. We recommend using Dezcal.
- Soap out water tank and drip tray every few days
- Remove the brew group and spray it down with hot water (no soap!) about once per week

Components & Functionality
|
- Rapid Steam® - The Titanium series are outfitted with two 1250 watt thermoblock boilers, which eliminates wait time between brewing and steaming. Perfect for entertaining.
-
Cobalt Blue LCD Display - The Titanium's attractive and easy to read LCD display communicates with you at every turn. No tricky symbols or icons, the display tells you when you need to add beans or water or if the machine is due for a descaling cycle. Through the programming menu, you can adjust the temperature of your espresso, language, pre-infusion, cup count, cup warmer, pre-grinding and auto shut off.
- Adjustable Dosing and Volume - Adjust the grinder to grind between 6-9 grams of coffee per shot. This, combined with the volume adjustment, gives you exquisite control of the end result.
- Bypass Doser - Want to enjoy a cup of decaf in the evening? No need to empty the entire bean hopper, use the bypass doser feature to brew using pre-ground coffee instead of whole beans. This valuable feature makes the Titanium a complete package.
-
Professional Conical Burr Grinder - Built to last the life of the machine, the professional-quality burr grinder has 18 unique settings to match your coffee's profile and your preferences.
- Active Cup Warmer - Controlled via the programming menu, the cup warmer gently takes the edge off of cold cups, leaving precious heat where it belongs!
- Frothing Options - Whether you prefer to froth your own milk or allow the automatic frothing attachment to do the work, you will find the Titanium satisfies your need for smooth, creamy foam.
- 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.
- Swivel Base - Accessing the large 60 oz. water reservoir is easy with the Titanium's swivel base.

Included Accessories
The Gaggia Titanium Series come with a coffee scoop (for bypass doser), grinder cleaning brush and a water hardness test strip.
