Labor Day is the perfect time for you to snag your favorite machines and coffee, guilt-free, and save a couple bucks along the way. Here are some of our favorite machines and coffee that you can get during Whole Latte Love’s Labor Day sale.

Lavazza Super Crema

A customer favorite, Lavazza’s Super Crema coffee is boasting with honey and almond flavor notes with an 80/20 Arabica/Robusta blend. We’ve heard from satisfied coffee lovers themselves, that the Super Crema whole beans are “smooth”, have no “no bitterness”, and that they’re “not too dry or too oily” making this coffee perfect for super-automatic users.

Lavazza Qualita Oro

Originating from Brazil, Central America, and Africa, Lavazza’s Qualita Oro is a must-have for coffee connoisseurs. The smooth and fruity taste leaves coffee lovers wanting more. The medium roast whole beans have honey, dried fruit, and floral flavor notes and have a bright acidity in the cup. The Qualita Oro pack is a great option with a delicious blend of flavors for a sweet start to your day.

Lavazza Top Class

Chocolate, dried fruit and bitter cocoa beans roasted in Italy. What more could you ask for? The Top Class whole beans are medium roasted to perfection—perfect for pulling that creamy shot of espresso, a nice foundation for a cappuccino, flat white, latte, macchiato and more.

Gaggia Classic Pro in Midnight Blue

If you missed the news, Gaggia recently launched four new colors in Polar White, Venetian Red, Tuxedo Black, and Midnight Blue. The Classic Pro is a staple in many espresso lovers' homes for their daily morning routine and new colors are a great way to add a pop of color in your kitchen. My personal favorite is Midnight Blue; it’s patriotic, it adds color to the kitchen set, yet it stands in its own royal glory. For this Labor Day, go bold, Midnight Blue Classic Pro won’t let you down. Gaggia’s notable Pannarello wand can whip up the fluffiest milk foam I’ve ever seen for those tiresome mornings where latte art can start your day off on the right foot. Don’t believe me?

Gaggia Babila

Let’s pump the breaks a little bit. When there’s a good deal on a super-automatic, it’s a big deal. After a long day of work, you just want to sit back and watch your favorite TV shows with a cappuccino in hand, and there’s no better way to achieve your perfect night than with a one-touch bean-to-cup machine. Treating yourself with a machine made by Gaggia is a treat in itself. Not only are you carrying on the Italian tradition of brewing espresso, the Babila sits top of the line among Gaggia’s other prestigious machines including the Classic Pro and the Brera. With one-touch brewing functions, easy programmability, a convenient flow adjustment dial and super easy cleaning and maintenance, the Babila is a machine that you can’t pass up.

Capresso CoffeeTeam GS

The Capresso CoffeeTeam GS is one of our oldies but goodies. Sometimes you just want to stick to the basics and with a low-cost option like the Capresso CoffeeTeam GS, you can’t pass up a classic machine that brews great coffee. Capresso caters to more affordable options for coffee lovers but doesn’t skip out on great quality and great features. The drip coffee maker has a charcoal water filtration system removing more than 80% of impurities found in water. Charcoal is a natural filter that has proven to be the most effective at removing any contaminants and impurities in your water. Having good-quality water is crucial for great tasting coffee. The Capresso CoffeeTeam GS takes the middleman out and offers a simple way to brew up to 10 cups of great-tasting coffee at an affordable price.

Hario Cafepress Olive Wood 20-ounce

Okay French Press lovers, it’s your time to shine. Hario’s 20-ounce Cafepress makes incredible French Press coffee and the wood accents are the cherry on top. When brewing hot coffee in glass, it’s crucial that the glass is thermal shock resistant, Hario made sure that users would have a pleasant and safe brewing experience—the Olive Wood Cafepress is made with high-quality borosilicate glass and can withstand up to 248 °F. Balanced with olive wood accents, you can brew up to 2 cups of full-bodied coffee and enjoy a luxurious cup o’ joe.
