Mother’s day is on the horizon. If you haven’t started thinking about what gift you’re going to get the woman who raised you…well, you might want to.
For anyone whose mom happens to be the coffee-loving sort, you’re in luck. We’ve compiled a list of great gift ideas for all the mothers who are coffee lovers.
Super-Autos For Super Moms
Is your mom still using a $20 drip coffee maker to brew coffee every morning? If so, you might want to consider upgrading her setup. Why make her work for a mediocre brew when she could get a coffee-shop-quality cup of coffee with the touch of a button?
Gaggia super-automatics brew delicious espresso and milk drinks, and they’re available at a wide range of price points.
Gaggia Anima Prestige
The Gaggia Anima Prestige is perhaps the simplest, easiest to use super-auto around. It’s got real buttons that you push to brew a small menu of espresso beverages, from a single shot to a double cappuccino. With a price tag under $600, it just might be the best-value super-auto available—and it brews excellent espresso too.
Gaggia Cadorna Prestige
Gaggia’s Cadorna Prestige offers several relevant upgrades to the Anima. It’s got a larger menu of beverages it can prepare and gives the option to program drink customizations to one of four distinct user profiles. This way, she can save her drinks the way she likes them without forcing those changes on her guests.
Gaggia Accademia
The Accademia is the ultimate Gaggia super-auto. It has the largest beverage menu of all (19 distinct drinks) and has the greatest versatility when customizing drinks. The full-color touchscreen makes navigating the menu a breeze. The Accademia is also the only machine in this guide that gives the option to steam milk manually. If your mom likes to experiment with different drink preparations, or might want to practice her barista skills, this is the super-auto for her.
For Home Barista Moms
Sure, pushing a button and having delicious espresso beverages delivered to your cup is all well and good, but it’s not everyone’s vibe. There’s something to the process of preparing a manual espresso extraction that’s both exciting and a little bit zen.
If your mom is the kind of person who would enjoy the role of home barista, you should get her a prosumer-grade machine. And we’ve got just the one:
The Bezzera BZ13 DE
This is a compact, commercial-grade heat exchanger that does everything an aspiring home barista needs it to practically perfectly. It heats to brewing and steam temperatures in a mere 10 minutes, is easy to use and maintain, and has the option to upgrade its accessories to a wide variety of absolutely stunning wood grains.
An Espresso Evolution
The Espresso Evolution is Gaggia’s newest espresso machine, designed to make excellent espresso accessible on any budget. Designed and built entirely in Italy, this machine offers a full suite of features practically unheard of at its price point. From a PID-controlled boiler to the automatic pre-infusion and the versatility to brew pre-ground or pod coffee, this machine will have your mom brewing cafe-quality drinks in practically no time.
For Moms on the Go
Does your mom already have her dream espresso setup? Why not upgrade her to-go drinking vessel with Fellow’s Carter Everywhere Mug?
Traditional travel tumblers often use an aluminum interior that affects the taste of your beverage. Fellow’s Carter Everywhere Mug, however, uses a ceramic lining which adds no flavor. Combined with the wide mouth that allows the scent of your beverage to do its job in building flavor, it makes for a pristine and enjoyable drinking experience.
$31.50

If your mom likes gourmet coffee flavors, a high-quality coffee bean makes all the difference. Consider getting her a subscription to one of our single-origin roasts. Each has a distinct flavor profile and can be enjoyed in a variety of preparations, from espresso to pour-over.
