8 Tips for Choosing Co ee
As a general rule, any type of co ee available on the market
can be used. However, co ee is a natural product and its  a-
vour changes according to its origin and blend; therefore, it is
advisable to try di erent types of co ee in order to  nd out the
blend that best suits your personal tastes.
For optimal results, we recommend using espresso machine
blends. As a rule, co ee should always come out of the pressur-
ized  lter holder, without dripping. The co ee brewing speed
can be modi ed by slightly changing the amount of co ee in
the  lter and/or using a di erent co ee grind. Gaggia recom-
mends using ESE single-dose co ee pods for a tasty co ee and
easier cleaning and preparing.
