The vibrant emotion of the best espresso in a new, modern machine with an unmistakable urban design.

Quality Espresso, a leading company in the professional espresso machine market, has applied innovation and design to a legendary Gaggia line machine, giving rise to the new Gaggia La Nera. By launching this new product, we are introducing the evolution, improvement, and redesign of the successful Gaggia Nera that was launched in the early 90s and earned a prestigious recognition for over 30 years on the market.

The Gaggia line is synonymous with tradition, history, and everything that is Italian and is the icon of Italian espresso. The history of espresso coffee dates back to 1938 when Achille Gaggia invented the espresso foam and revolutionized the espresso preparation process, giving rise to the authentic Italian tradition of espresso that spread throughout the world in the 1950s. This prestigious line recently celebrated its 80th anniversary. The line’s solid reputation on the market is well known thanks to its top quality, high reliability, and soundness.

The new Gaggia La Nera combines all the advantages of the Gaggia line into a machine with an urban design thanks to its stainless steel front finishes that convey Italian design, solidity, and quality, all while making cleaning easier.

Its main technical features include the ergonomic knobs for water and steam, total ease of use, integrated LED keypads, integrated lighting to improve workspace visibility, an optional cups protection rail on the upper tray, solid 2.5 kg groups with infusion/extraction system, frame with corrosion-resistant treatment, stainless steel work area, high-performance boiler and groups, copper boiler with separate heat exchanger for each group including a thermosiphon system, built-in motor pump, electronic control of the water level in the boiler, automatic cleaning cycle, and automatic water inlet.

The machine features 2 variations, one Electronic and the other Semi-automatic, with 5 available models: The Electronic model has 1 group, 2 groups, 2 compact groups, and 3 groups, and the Semi-automatic model has 2 groups. Another optional feature available is the filter holder kit for any type of professional capsules.

This modern machine is adapted to new times and trends based on connectivity as electronic models can optionally be connected to Smartia, the platform that facilitates total control of coffee machines by remote connection. The IoT for the coffee business.

Continuously launching new products and applying the latest technological innovations to its machines is what solidifies Quality Espresso as the leading company on the professional espresso machine market. Quality Espresso is a company with over 65 years of history that encompasses tradition and innovation, and is present in more than 90 countries.
