Just to Say Gaggia have not gone bust. The UK distributers trading as Gaggia/UK however have gone bust. The Gaggia company itself has been bought out by Phillips as of September 2009. Hopefully Phillips will find new UK distributers soon and will not try to change the Gaggia brand too much. As for Auto machines in general. You will never get as good a cup with an auto as you will with a manual machine. Good coffee is an art so go for a Gaggia Classic or simular. Use Youtube for tips and you will soon be making coffee better than any coffee shop, in your own home.
