Where would we be without Mr Gaggia? Honestly, the man single-handedly invented the modern-day espresso bar back in 1938. Still, nearly 90 years later, the world of coffee and the science behind it has changed irrevocably.
Gaggia's Classic espresso machine (its staple home range, that's been around since the early 90s) has been a kitchen icon, but if I'm honest, it's starting to show its age. Enter the new and improved Gaggia Classic UP. This refinement of an already solid design takes what modders have been doing for years now and fully implements all of it at a factory level, all in an attempt to take the top spot as the best espresso machine of 2026.
