Gaggia Classic Pro E24 review

The Gaggia Classic Pro E24 is the newest version of a long-running Italian design, and it suits buyers who want to learn espresso on a machine they can grow with. Gaggia says the E24 adds a solid, lead-free brass boiler that improves thermal stability and steaming, and it brews at 9 bar. It is designed and made in Gaggio Montano, Italy. Controls are manual, and milk is steamed with a classic wand, so you learn timing, dose and texture yourself. The body is 14.2 inches tall, 8 inches wide and 9.5 inches deep, at 19 lbs. There is no grinder, and Gaggia documents no automatic milk or programmable shot volumes, which makes it harder for a beginner than the Ninja or Breville machines. It cost $549.00 on Gaggia North America's store when checked. We compared documented features and published prices.
