Gaggia Brera Espresso Machine in Silver
Gaggia Brera Espresso Machine in Silver

My Brera appears to have given up the ghost. Brewed three shots this morning and then it turned off. Unplugged it and plugged it back in and the on/off button glowed twice and then went dark. Just left it unplugged for several minutes and plugged it back in - no glowing light at all now. Reseated power cord, brew group etc but no effect. Any ideas? Might there be a (user serviceable) fuse that could perhaps be the culprit?

Gaggia Brera Espresso Machine in Silver

I've had mine a year now, having taken advantage of a WLL refurbished machine. It's been a solid performer over the past year, knocking out 10 to 20 double shots every day without a hitch. The only complaints about the machine is the size of the water reservoir which could be bigger and the...

Michael Rosso ♦ The upside to filling your water reservoir more often,is that you get the freshest water to brew great espresso with.

Purchased a refurbished Brera through you about six weeks ago and we absolutely love it. The descale icon is showing on the control panel and I note you don't stock the Gaggia solution for cleaning. Which ones would be safe to use in this machine? Thanks!

Michael Rosso ♦ Stephen...I am glad you love your Brera. You can use the Unrnex Cleancaf to descale your espresso machine. Thanks.

Cuisinart DGB-900 Grind & Brew Thermal Carafe 12-Cup Automatic Coffee Maker

Great machine. Replaced a brief encounter with the Capresso CoffeeTeam thermal carafe which was a mistake. The Cusinart is a good improvement over the blade grinder version that preceded it.

I bought this machine to replace an aging Cuisinart that was having issues. I also wanted a machine with a burr grinder and one that I could set up the night before for my morning coffee.

It's simpler to keep clean than the Cuisinart and is quieter too. After about 20 pots of varying sizes,...

Gives a good idea of the range of beans from Lavazza you'd typically put in a machine.
