Gaggia Brera Bean to Cup Coffee Machine Review
As an Espresso coffee machine, the Gaggia Brera is one of the best bean to cup coffee machines, you’ll find. While it’s twin boiler system will reach high temperatures, almost instantaneously, the coffee machine doesn’t leave burnt beans behind, like some other models have problems with.
It’s also stylishly designed and compact enough to sit neatly and comfortably on your kitchen worktops. It’s designed with both style and simplicity in mind. Practicality plays an important role too, as you need easy access to top up the compartments with either water or coffee beans. All of which are easily accessible from the stainless steel front and top loading ground coffee compartment, with a detachable brewing unit too, which comes in especially handy for cleaning.
A Perfect Cappuccino Machine
If you’re going to use it as a Cappuccino machine, or for other drinks with a creamy froth on top, such as Lattes and/or Macchiatos, then you’ll be able to take comfort knowing that your frother isn’t going to be affected with ground in milk, that hardens and stops your machine from working properly. The Gaggia Brera has its own built-in self-cleaning program, to ensure that it’s ready for use when you need it. It’s intelligent technology will alert you when to push the self clean button to ensure maximum performance.
Gaggia Brera Unique Design
One other important factor that comes into the design of the Gaggia Brera bean to cup coffee machine are the unique ceramic grinder it uses to grind your coffee beans. Extensive testing went into this and ceramic blades were the material that retained the most aromas, and flavour in the coffee beans, to enrich the intensity of the coffee it makes. That’s why the Gaggia Brera uses the ceramic blades and not the stainless steel blades, other bean to cup coffee machines use, that don’t enrich your coffee.
With any other Cappuccino machine, Espresso coffee machine or even top of the line bean to cup coffee machines, there’s normally some default factory settings on the coffee machine. That’s the same for the Gaggia Brera as it comes with 5 preset programs for brewing your coffee.
Why Buy this ?
Where it comes into a life of its own though is through the memory program option it has. You get 5 of the very best recommended settings already programmed into the Gaggia Brera Espresso coffee machine, but since everyone’s taste differs, you can still get the push button Espressos made to your preference by saving your favourite custom setting. No other bean to cup coffee machines are able to remember how you like your coffee and at the press of a button, brew it to the time you want, grind the coffee beans to your desired taste, adjust the strength of your coffee and give you the crema that you love with the push of a single button. All this adds up to your perfect cup of coffee.

- All the areas that need your attention, for topping up or cleaning are easily accessible.
- Auto shut-off after 60 minutes and only uses 1W of energy when in standby mode.
What we don’t like
- Only the front of the unit is stainless steel. The rest of the body is black plastic, although it is still a strong and robust design, that won’t break.
- You have to empty the drip tray frequently, due to the self-cleaning programme.
- Needs about 6 inches all round for ventilation, so it takes a bit of space in your kitchen, despite it being a compact design.
- Steam nozzle is quite small, so it’s difficult to get a froth on larger cups, so not the best Cappuccino machine
