The Gaggia Brera is a compact Italian-made super-automatic espresso machine with a built-in 5-setting ceramic burr grinder and a Pannarello steam wand. It brews espresso and long coffee from just two buttons, and an adaptive system adjusts grind time to keep doses consistent. It is 10 inches wide, holds 40 fl oz of water, and accepts pre-ground coffee through a bypass doser. It undercuts most super-automatics with a built-in grinder, though its small tank and manual wand are the trade-offs.

Features and Performance
Capable and compact, the Brera delivers on performance and value. At just 10” wide and 12.4” tall, you’ll have no problem fitting this machine in your kitchen. When brewing, coffee is ground fresh using a 5 setting ceramic burr grinder, and you can tailor your desired strength to one of 3 settings. Based on your grind and strength, the Brera will automatically adjust its grind cycle to optimize the coffee dose for your extraction, becoming more accurate with each shot. You can also load pre-ground coffee directly into the group via the bypass doser.Specialty milk drinks can be easily prepared with the pannarello steam wand. By positioning the selector switch to the left, the Brera will produce steam, allowing you to froth milk. The design of the pannarello wand produces rich milk foam with minimal technique required for the perfect homemade cappuccino. You can also produce hot water for drinks like Americanos, tea, and cocoa by positioning the selector switch to the right.Capacity wise, the Brera has a 40 oz water reservoir, 8.8oz bean hopper, and can hold up to 9 spent pucks of coffee. The drip tray holds up to 28 oz of water, and the brew spouts can fit cups up to 4.5” tall which is enough clearance for a standard American coffee mug. Maintenance alerts will also keep you informed when you need to refill the water reservoir, add more beans, empty the dreg drawer, or descale.
