    Brief Video Introduction to the Gaggimate


    GaggiMate STANDARD adds essential features that improve usability, control, and smart home integration. The GaggiMate STANDARD controls temperature with its inbuilt PID controller and allows automated shots controlled by time. The standard has all the features of the PRO but does not have the pressure module to allow full pressure profiles.  

    The GaggiMate Standard is an upgrade kit for compatible espresso machines that adds digital temperature control (PID), brew timers, and smart home integration with platforms like HomeKit and Home Assistant. It features a digital interface for controlling brew temperature, pre-infusion, and brew by weight (when paired with a Bluetooth scale), along with modes for steaming milk and dispensing hot water. 

    Core functions

    • Digital Temperature Control: Replaces the stock thermostat with a PID controller for precise and stable temperature control.
    • Smart Home Integration: Connects with platforms like Apple HomeKit and Home Assistant for remote control and automation.
    • Brew Timers: Allows you to set a timer for your shot extraction.
    • Brew by Weight: Can be linked with compatible Bluetooth scales to automatically stop a shot once a target weight is reached.
    • User-Friendly Interface: Features a digital display and a local web interface for monitoring and adjusting settings. 

    Other features

    • Pre-infusion: You can enable pre-infusion for a "blooming" phase before the main extraction.
    • Hot water dispenser: Includes a function for dispensing hot water.
    • Steaming modes: Provides enhanced steam performance for milk frothing. 
    • What's not in the Standard version
    • Pressure profiling: This is a feature of the GaggiMate Pro kit, not the Standard version.

    In depth video

    The Gaggia Classic E24 has professional commercial quality components and adding the sophisticated engine of the GaggiMate allows users to achieve barista-quality coffee at home, not seen in most home machines, including many of the E61 type machines costing far more.

    The Gaggimate standard offers the ability to create and share simple profiles and these are stored in both the Gaggimate and also the web interface.  Profiles can be created using the web interface very easily and transferred into the machine.

    Espresso is very exacting: your brew temperature and pressure have to be nearly perfect. Off by a few degrees and your drink will be acceptable, but not great. The Gaggimate (and the Shadesofcoffee kit) solve this with their digital temperature control (PID).

    This need for precision is why most coffee shops make so-so espresso drinks. Even good coffee shops are often inconsistent. Well-performing professional machines are expensive and demand great skill. With most home machines, you don't stand a chance of making a decent espresso. The Gaggimate changes that.
