Gaggia Titanium Office Espresso Machine

Features

With programmable brewing buttons, an LCD display, extra-large dredge drawer, and steel housing, it’s easy to see why the Gaggia Titanium Office will become a beloved fixture in any office or home kitchen. The large base with room for up to 30 spent coffee pucks and extra drip tray room are the 2 main features of this machine, in addition to Gaggia’s time-tested super automatic technology. Plus, with 1 boiler for brewing and 1 boiler for steaming, you can make lattes, cappuccinos, and other espresso-based milk drinks without any downtime.

The blue LCD display on the Gaggia Titanium Office makes brewing, programming, and maintenance easy, letting you know (in the language of your choice) what’s going on with the machine. The programmable brewing buttons can be set to the coffee size of your choice, so you can create consistent shots every time you brew. You can also choose to manually adjust the grind fineness to any of the grinder’s 18 settings, and adjust the coffee dose between 6 and 9 grams. Plus, if you want to brew with beans other than those in the hopper, just put the ground coffee of your choice in the bypass doser.

A Rapid Steam system puts some serious power behind frothing milk for café-style drinks. A stainless steel Turbo Frother attachment on the steam wand will properly distribute steam throughout your frothing pitcher, so you can look like a cappuccino pro. You can even attach the automatic frothing system, called the cappuccinatore, and let the machine do the work for you, dispensing perfectly frothed milk into your waiting cup.

Features & Benefits: Coffee

Automatic Coffee Center

The Gaggia Titanium Office has everything you need to easily create the drinks you’ll find at the coffee shop around the corner. Cappuccinos, lattes, macchiatos, americanos, and more are just a few buttons away. If you have drip coffee lovers in your home or office, you can even make crema coffee. This flavorful and rich drink is the result of passing more water under pressure through the ground espresso, up to about 8oz. The result is the same size as a drip coffee, but with a depth of flavor unlike anything they’ve experienced before

2 Boilers

Waiting for a single boiler machine to heat up to steam temperature or cool down to brewing temperature can take up precious moments in the morning. The Gaggia Titanium Office features 2 boilers, 1 for brewing and a Rapid Steam boiler for steaming milk. This eliminates downtime, so creating drinks is easy and fast.

Push Button Technology

The key to any super automatic espresso machine is its ease-of-use, and the Gaggia Titanium Office couldn’t get too much simpler. Programmable brewing buttons can be set to dispense the liquid volume of your choice, so brewing is as simple as pressing a button on the control panel. Grinding, dosing, tamping, and brewing are all taken care of by the machine, no mess and no fuss.

LCD Display

A blue LCD display on the front of the Gaggia Titanium Office will guide you through virtually every function of the machine in the language of your choosing (English, Italian, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese, or Dutch). In addition to helping you through programming the machine, this display will notify you when the water reservoir or bean hopper need to be refilled, when to perform cleaning and descaling cycles.

Adjustable Beverage Volume

The first 3 buttons on the Gaggia Titanium Office’s control panel are programmable brewing buttons. They have been pre-set for an espresso, normal coffee, and café lungo respectively, but you can adjust them to meet your personal tastes. To change the setting, just put a cup underneath the dispensing spout and then press and hold the button you want to program. The message “Progr. Quantity” will appear on the display and coffee will be dispensed into your cup. Simply release the button when you want to stop the flow of coffee, and your setting will be saved.

Adjustable Coffee Dosing

The taste of your espresso depends on a number of different variables, and the amount of coffee used to brew is a big one. You can adjust the amount of coffee used to brew each shot anywhere between 6 and 9 grams by turning the coffee dosing knob in the bean hopper. To increase the strength of your espresso, you can increase the dose, and vice versa.

Adjustable Temperature Control

Some people love their espresso extra-hot, while others don’t want to wait too long before they can start sipping. The Gaggia Titanium Office has 5 different temperature settings to choose from: minimum, low, medium, high, and maximum. The coffee temperature is easily adjusted by entering the programming mode by pressing the Menu/OK button on the control panel and navigating with the arrow keys.

Professional Conical Burr Grinder

Grind fineness plays a large role in the flavor of your espresso. The Gaggia Titanium Office features a conical burr grinder with 18 different settings, so you can find just the right fineness to accommodate your beans and your personal taste.

Coffee Pre-infusion

Before brewing, a pre-infusion cycle will wet your ground coffee with a splash of water. This pulls out the aromatic oils of the coffee, so once brewing starts, the result is a more flavorful espresso shot. If desired, you can also turn this function off in programming mode.

Bypass Doser

When entertaining, or in the evenings when you want to enjoy a decaf espresso shot or latte, you often have to use beans other than the ones in the hopper. The Gaggia Titanium Office features a bypass doser that allows you to brew using previously ground coffee. Located on the front top of the machine, this chute is easily accessible by lifting a small cover. An included coffee scoop will also help you measure out the proper amount of ground coffee.

Adjustable Coffee Spout

Because the Titanium Office gives you the opportunity to create a variety of espresso beverages, chances are good that you will be using a variety of different cups. The Titanium Office has an adjustable coffee spout, so you can brew directly into espresso cups or larger mugs.

Cup Warmer

An active cup warmer is located on the top of the Titanium Office. With room for up to 6 espresso cups, you can help maintain the ideal serving temperature for your espresso. You can turn the cup warmer on and off in the programming menu.

Pre-grinding Function

A nice feature for use in an office environment is the pre-grinding option. This feature will automatically grind a dose of coffee for a second shot right after a shot is brewed. This allows the next shot to be brewed right when the user presses the brewing button, rather than having to wait for the machine to grind, dose, and tamp. You can turn this function on or off in the programming menu.

Features & Benefits: Frothing and Hot Water

Turbo Frother and Automatic Frothing Attachment

With the Gaggia Titanium Office, you have 2 different options for steaming and frothing milk for cappuccinos, lattes, and other espresso-based milk drinks. A stainless steel Turbo Frother will help evenly distribute steam throughout your frothing pitcher to let you create luscious steamed or frothed milk in moments.
The Gaggia Office also comes with an automatic frothing attachment called a cappuccinatore. To use, just remove the Turbo Frother and attach the cappuccinatore to the steam wand. Then, simply place the milk tube into a container of cold milk, place your cup underneath the dispensing spout, and turn the steam knob. In moments, perfectly frothed milk will be dispensed into your cup.

Hot Water

If you want to enjoy tea, americanos, hot chocolate, or instant soups, the Titanium Office can dispense hot water. Just press the hot water button, wait for the display to say it’s ready, and turn the steam/hot water knob. When your desired amount of hot water has been reached, turn the knob back the other way to stop the slow of water.

In order to keep your descaling cycles on schedule, the Gaggia Titanium Office comes with a water hardness test strip.

The instruction manual and LCD display will guide you through the descaling process that typically occurs every 2-3 months depending on water hardness.

Cycle Count

To keep track of the amount of espressos brewed on your machine, the Titanium Office features a cup counter. To access the count, just enter the “Total Coffees” section of the programming menu.
