Designed and Made in Italy
Gaggia Classic UP Black is designed and made in Italy, combining authentic espresso heritage with modern control features and premium materials.
Dual PID System
Two PID controls manage brewing and steam temperatures independently. The coffee PID is adjustable, helping you set the brewing temperature according to your preferred coffee and extraction style.

Adjustable Pre-Infusion
Automatic pre-infusion can be selected across three levels, helping to prepare the coffee puck before extraction and support a more even result in the cup.
Analogue Pressure Gauge
The analogue pressure gauge provides real-time visibility of brewing pressure, allowing you to monitor extraction more closely.
Professional 58 mm Filter-Holder
The professional stainless-steel 58 mm filter-holder features an ergonomic handle and Gaggia’s signature “G”, offering a more authentic home-barista experience.
