Krups Coffee Maker

Product Description:
With over 65 years in the industry, you won't find a better quality espresso brewed from a home espresso machine. Grind, dose and brew your espresso, all at the touch of a button. Switch to steam by turning the knob and let the Milk Island, a separate frothing attachment, create the perfect foam for those delicious cappuccinos. Or froth with the pannarello wand, used in the traditional way with a frothing pitcher; both options are hands off! Gaggia has gone above and beyond with the LED touch screen display, stainless steel control panel, rapid steam boiler, and the two frothers, creating a very simple, consistent and reliable machine to operate. The touch screen offers an abundance of programmable options. The Beverage Settings allow you to set the strength, intensity, temperature and volume for your espresso, coffee, and tall coffee. The Time/Date Settings allow you to adjust stand-by mode and also set the machine to turn on and off up to 3 times a day, 7 days a week. For example, Monday -- 6am, 12pm, 6pm, Friday -- 6am, 1pm, 9pm and Saturday -- 9am, 6pm, 10pm. Machine Settings allow you to set the language, adjust the cup warmer, and set the water settings including rinse mode, water filter and water hardness. Maintenance Settings include cleaning and descale cycles and lock display, which allows you to clean the menu screen without accidentally selecting a beverage. Lastly, Special Settings include factory settings, which allow you to reset the machine to the original manufacturer settings. All super automatic machines have a centralized brew group where the brewing process takes place. One of the many key advantages to the Gaggia machines is the removable brew group, which creates easy maintenance. After some extensive field and comparison testing against other top brands, plus having Baristas/Connoisseurs sample its final product, we're happy to report the Gaggia Platinum's have come out on top, each and every time.
