Gaggia Cubika 74511 Espresso Coffee Maker

Gaggia Cubika 74511 Espresso Coffee Maker

Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Gaggia is the best known Italian manufacturer of coffee machines for professional and household use and its name is synonymous with tradition and reliability the world over. The company was set up in 1947 by Achille Gaggia, the man to whom we are indebted for the success of espresso coffee all over the world. It was he who on September 5th 1938 filed a patent no 365726 with which modern steam-free coffee machines may be said to have been born. In 1977 Gaggia began producing coffee machines for the home, launching the Baby Gaggia, which to this day is considered to be the ideal family coffee maker. The designs and technological advances have changed the way the machines look and work but the objective of quality, reliability and the passion for the right espresso every time has remained throughout Gaggia's history and this is what makes Gaggia legendary.

The Gaggia Cubika has a traditional frother for making capuccinos and lattes. The 15 bar pump pressure ensures good cream on your espressos. The machine can be used with ground coffee or pods.

The design objective of the Gagged Cubika was to accommodate as many features of a top of the range machine in a small home model capable of satisfying the needs of a wide audience. With a neat brushed stainless steel casing, large cup warmer and built with traditional Gagged technology it is capable of making a perfect espresso using ground coffee or easy serving espresso pods. Cubika can even make perfect tea using our steam tea method.

    3.0 out of 5 stars great coffee, dubious quality machine., 11 April 2005
    Since October 2004, I've enjoyed the fantastic coffee (particularly when using Illy Espresso coffee) from this machine. The design is simple and stylish, and it's all easy to use. However, quality isn't the best - some of the parts don't seem to fit together all that well, and, like everyone else who owns this machine, the on/off switch broke 4 months in.
    To Gaggia's credit, the service they provided in picking up and couriering the repaired machine back, was excellent.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Gaggia Cubika, 6 Nov 2005
    After taking ages to decide on a pumped machine within a budget of about £100ish I decided to dive in and buy a Gaggia Cubika (not from Amazon). What probably tempted me was the brushed stainless steel angular design (I'm a sucker for nice looking things!)

    Any way down to the nitty gritty. I suppose after having for approx 6-months, I've finally sussed how to use it properly to make pukka cappuccino's (my coffee of choice). Other people have written about how poor the build quality is, I suppose the only complaint I have is that I keep having to replace the rubber seals that make contact with the filter basket but that to me is a minor annoyance.

    To make good esspresso you must leave the machine to warm up for a few minutes and pull off a blank shot to prime the pump. To get the best coffee from the machine buy freshly ground or beans and a decent grinder. ESE pods are ok but not as good. For the money this is probably the best machine you can buy, going to work in the morning without a coffee won't be the same again.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!, 5 Sep 2006
    By Hilary Little - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    I was bought my machine as a Christmas present in 2005 and it's been in use practically every day since. I've had no issues with performance or quality - the only problem is the number of visitors wanting a cup of coffee at my house! Based on the Cubika I would buy another Gaggia machine without any hesitation whatsoever.
