The Gaggia Brera is like putting a mini coffee shop in the corner of your urban kitchen. At only 12.4" tall and with all the access from the front and top, it's absolutely the perfect super-automatic espresso machine for tight spaces. Don't be fooled, however, as what it lacks in size it makes up for in performance. The Brera boasts state of the art technology in it's intuitive, user-friendly interface, with push-button controls and a large display. Color coded icons provide a quick reference for your grinding, brewing, and steaming functions. Even though the controls are straightforward, the Brera’s mechanical functions are undeniably sophisticated. Brera’s durable ceramic grinder provides optimal grind fineness and consistency, without the risk of overheating. Best of all, the Gaggia Adapting System monitors and automatically adjusts the grind time, based on your beans, to deliver the exact quantity of coffee selected!
You can also control the strength of your espresso by using the Optidose feature, The Brera will remember your precise drink volume to deliver a truly customized beverage. If you are in the mood to use pre-ground or decaf coffee, the integrated bypass doser will let you brew with ease!
