I have been using this about two weeks now and love it! I make two to four cups per day. It really is very easy to use and clean. One important note....If there is coffee bean residue, it does not mean it is a return or refurbished. The machines are tested with coffee at the factory, cleaned after testing and packaged. Expect a small learning curve. Once you get the hang of it, it is really amazing. With the first cup I made, the puck was mushy, almost soupy. So I looked online and the grinder needed to be adjusted to a finer setting. Here it got a little interesting...I had read on line that it is much better to adjust the grinder while it is running but it won't run without the lid on making it impossible to adjust while it is running as where you adjust it is under the lid. There is a way around this is...You fill with beans, hold a magnet where the lid magnet would be and press a drink button...as it is grinding you can now adjust it. If you go this route, be careful to keep you fingers clear of the grinder. The finer the grind the bolder the flavor. If it is too fine the coffee will tend to have a bitter flavor. So only adjust it a little bit at a time. Cleaning the unit is very simple and doesn't take much time. It needs to be thoroughly cleaned once a week. Which is really just rinsing everything and removing the brew group to rinse well. After the coffee is brewed and has sat for a bit, you will hear the unit turn back on and hear it running. At first I thought oh no what is wrong. But it is only running a bit of water through to rinse everything before it goes to standby mode. Cleaning the Milk Carafe - When you are done making your drinks, run the quick clean. This rinses out the spout of the Carafe. When it is done I just put it in the refrigerator for the next day. Once a week I take it apart and thoroughly clean it. It looked a little intimidating in the instructions so I watched a you-tube video on how to take it apart. It actually is really easy to follow the step by step directions in the book but the video gave me a good idea on how it all comes back together. The only issue I have had so far is inserting the milk carafe (frother) into the machine. It just doesn't seem to go in very smoothly. After using it many times, it does seem a little better so I don't know if it was just learning how to insert it or it just has to be broken in. I am very happy with my purchase. I did purchase the extended four year warranty because I caught it on a day where it was only an additional $25.00. The manufactures warranty is good for one year and you can download the service manual from the Gaggia website along part list, instructions manuals etc. Update: Still love making coffee with this machine! A few things I have learned... When emptying the coffee ground container make sure the unit is turned on. Sometimes the empty indicator light was coming on and there would only be one or two pucks in the drawer. I did some reading and it was because at times I was emptying it when the machine was off. Has not happened since...the drawer is always full when the light comes on now. To brew 2 shots of espresso at once, push the button twice..x2 will show on the display(duh can't believe how long it took me to figure that one out). Finally, I added a picture of a cappuccino with a thermometer. The unit is set on the highest temperature and the cup was at room temperature, not heated. It is consistently 140-141°F when done. The milk froth was 140°F before the coffee was added. The SCA recommends heating milk to 139–149°F with a maximum temperature of 158°F and minimum of 122°F. So while I would like it a little warmer, it heats as it should :) ... show more

    • Love it!
My old manual machine died so I finally decided to replace it. After looking at the different brands and features I decided on the super automatic Gaggia Velasca Prestige. I have only had it a little over a week, but I am so happy with my purchase. It was a little confusing to set up, but operation is easy. I would prefer a little more ability to customize drinks. Overall, the quality of the espresso is spot on. Good crema, not quite as thick as my manual machine, but still good. I debated whether to splurge for a model with an automatic frothing function. Again, not quite as good as doing it manually, but honestly it does a good job and I use it more often because of the ease of use, just install the pitcher and push the button and use the quick clean function after. The only thing I haven't been happy with is the preground bypass doser doesn't seem to work too well. (I only use it occasionally for a decaf ) Sometimes it works, other times just puts out a shot similar to weak tea. Could be user error on my part. Cleaning is pretty easy. Bottom line, I enjoy using the machine and am happy that I bought it. Now, I'll have to wait and see how durable it is. ... show more

I have owned the Gaggia Velasca for almost two years now and it gets almost daily use. I have seen some fancier models from friends and also observed the art of more traditional espresso-making. I am happy with the "super-automatic" class of the Gaggia Velasca. To be honest, I did not do a lot of research. A coffee aficionado friend of mine highly recommended this particular model as "a great starter machine". He was absolutely right! The Gaggia Velasca makes very good espresso and cappuccinos relatively quickly and without much manual intervention. Once warmed up, it produces an espresso in about 60 seconds or less. Cappuccinos naturally take a little longer. My only complaints with this machine (after 20 months): - the drip tray needs to be dumped after about 4 cycles of espresso/cappuccino. That seems excessive. - the "brew group" assembly gets an inordinate amount of coffee grounds in the compartment (not just in machinery) - the menus are not super-intuitive; kind of 90's technology I still love it. Now I am eager to get home from trips to get gooood coffeee! The price of the machine seems about right. If this one died today, I would probably buy the same one again. ... show more

    • Does not work and wastes beans
After loving our Titanium Gaggia for over 6 years, we were very excited to upgrade to a super automatic. After lots of research, we purchased the Anima Prestige, but returned it after about a month. While the frother was great, we were constantly getting no bean errors, which led to lots of ruined drinks, frustration and tons of wasted beans. The machine would grind the bean serving, then dump them into the dredge drawer and rinse itself into your fresh cup. We decided to return the Anima and switch to the Velasca Prestige, since family had recently purchased and had success. Immediately, we started getting no bean errors on the Valasca. We had several calls with custom support and went through the tedious and wasteful task of "training our Velasca's algorithm". ( One would assume for $900, the machine would come preprogrammed to make a cup of coffee) We had a bit of success for a while, but if you change the aroma strength, you are back at square one. It is not atypical to get 4-6 no bean errors while trying to make 1 espresso drink. We have had to double our Lavazza subscription, because of the coffee we waste. When we received both new machines, we noticed that they didn't seem as solid as out titanium, but were happy to look past that since they promised new exciting features. Now after 2 failed machines, I can't help but assume the quality of this brand is not what it once was. I'm hopeful that I will be able to return this as we are currently using our $30 french press, while the $900 machine gathers dust and takes up room on the counter. ... show more

    • 5 years strong
We've had this machine for 5 years now, no problems, makes great coffee, and has the option for ground coffee. The ground coffee was necessary as sometimes we might want a cup of decaf.

    • Good machine but instructions written by baboons.
When working, the machine is great. However the instruction manual is more of a puzzle with missing pieces than a guide. I think dyslexic baboons who were high on cannabis drafted it. Makes IKEA assembly instructions look understandable. Set up is difficult. Had a problem with it not pumping. No error codes that matched the manual were displayed on the screen of the machine. Called customer service. They provide no help over the phone. They direct you to their website to enter your information and a separate company emails you with vague instructions that may not match your problem. Was able to fix it by taking it apart and cleaning the insides thankfully. This is my second Gaggia espresso machine. I’m not sure I would buy another given the poor quality of their customer service and the instructions in the manual. ... show more

    • Delicious Coffee with a learning Curve
This machine, by far, produces the best coffee I've ever made at home and is better than most coffee you'll have out. There's a bit of a learning curve that comes with the machine and the user manual isn't clear with some of the instructions. I recommend watching some videos online to familiarize yourself with how it works and what the parts are. Be prepared to deep clean and lube the machine monthly. Again, the maintenance is worth it if you're looking to step up your coffee game. Make sure you use light to medium roast whole bean coffee. DO NOT USE DARK ROAST BEANS. This isn't about flavor. Dark Roast beans are more moist and can gum up the inner workings of the machine. ... show more
