gaggia-platinum-vision-Coffee-Machine The Gaggia Platinum Vision super automatic is one of the latest top of the line models from Gaggia and with it comes a manufacturer desire to make your essentials of brewing coffee just simple.

The features on this super automatic coffee machine are almost endless:

Exterior
As expected from any high-end appliance the Gaggia Platinum Vision exterior in stainless steel is a show stopper. Many think its design simplicity will make it a classic.

Aqua Prima Filter - When you know that a large amount of our Aqua Prima Filter

city waters contain calc and other impurities it is nice to have a water filter in the 57 oz water tank of your machine. This system will also auto-warn you if you need to change the filter, put more water or descale the machine.

Revolving Frothing Wand - Pressing the steam icon will show

you the menu and the rotating frothing wand makes steaming your lattes or cappuccinos much easier.

Hot Water - In the steam menu press hot water instead of steam and the frothing wand will double as a hot water dispenser for a café Americano, tea or hot cocoa.

Gaggia Milk Island - All you need to do is turn the steam knob on

the side of the machine to the island setting and automatically froth and steam up to 13.5 oz of milk.

Removable Brewing Unit - This is of major importance to keep Removable Brew Group

your machine in great shape and should be done weekly. Remove and rinse/clean with running warm water, once dry put it back into the machine. According to Gaggia after 500 brewing cycles the brew group should be lubricated with the included oil and than inserted back into the machine.

Removable 57 oz Water Reservoir
For freshest-tasting coffee the reservoir should be hand washed with lukewarm Removable Water Reservoir

water. Made of durable plastic, the water reservoir slides out easily from the side of the machine. The Gaggia Platinum Vision machines control panel will warn you when the water tank needs to be refilled.

Ceramic Coffee Grinder - A great feature included on this Ceramic Coffee Grinder

machine with a auto warning system to add coffee grounds when needed plus you can easily see the grounds through the clear hopper. The grind can be set to 3 different levels and you get fresh ground coffee for every cup you brew.

Bypass Doser - If someone prefers a different blend than the Doser Bypass

one already in the hopper, select pre-ground coffee in the programming menu, measure a scoop of the preferred ground coffee and simply open the bypass doser (a circular shoot in the bean hopper), pour the coffee into it and brew as usual.

Espresso Plus System- You pre-set the amount of coffee to be ground per shot Espresso Plus System

between 7 – 10.5 grams at the icon of the beverage you select. On the touch screen this will reflect into showing a darker or lighter cup according to you setting.

Electronic Drip Tray - Must be removed when the screen reads Electronic Drip Tray

- empty drip tray - open the side door to remove and empty the internal drip tray under the brew group. Cup Lift - The cup tray is electronically height-adjustable by using the arrow buttons to the right of the touch screen. Also the internal Coffee Ground Container - Must be removed at the automatic warning on screen - empty coffee grounds drawer - and when the machine is on so that it will record it.

Cup Warmer - An espresso brewed into a warm cup preserves Cup Warmer

the aromas, taste and temperature better. Your cup warming settings can be changed in the programming menu to on, off or off while in stand-by.

Included Accessories

The Gaggia Platinum Vision comes with:

- Aqua Prima water filter

- Measuring scoop for the bypass doser

This is indeed a top class coffee machine and all of it comes with a price tag that only you can be the judge of its real value. Between $1'999.00 and $2099.00 USD.

Bottom Line:
I've owned a Gaggia Titanium for 3 years and decided it was time to upgrade. I wanted something that would be a step up and still brew as good of coffee as I could get in the Titanium. When I saw the new Vision I knew that was the one. I just received this machine on Saturday and love it. The touch screen is great and the machine is just beautiful.
