GAGGIA product information
GAGGIA is a world-leading coffee machine manufacturer. Gaggia coffee machines were born out of the futuristic research of Mr Achille Gaggia, who founded the company specialising in the production of espresso machines in the 1930s.
For more than half a century since then, GAGGIA has been producing innovative, state-of-the-art professional and domestic coffee machines, always aiming for the highest quality espresso. Its research has always focused on improving the extraction of coffee and obtaining the soft layer of 'natural crema' on the coffee, in the search for ever better taste.
From then on, first with coffee machines for coffee bars, then for domestic use, GAGGIA became the market leader.
In 1999, Gaggia merged with Saeco and introduced its line of automatic espresso machines: at the push of a button, the machine grinds the coffee, presses it and dispenses it directly into the cup! Ten years later, Gaggia was sold to PHILIPS ELECTRONICS and has since become part of one of Europe's largest industrial groups in the field of household appliances and electronics, with an extremely extensive network of authorised service centres.
