Grind, dose and brew your espresso, all at the touch of a button. Switch it over to steam mode by turning the knob and let the Milk Island take care of creating the perfect foam for those delicious cappuccinos. You can actually watch the entire process through the clear container as it heats and creates the delicious microfoam! The Milk Island, a separate frothing attachment, makes the entire frothing process hands off. Simply attach the milk island to your machine (it will fit any of the four Platinum models), pour in your cold milk, turn the steam knob to the Milk Island setting, and watch as your milk turns into a piping hot, thick and creamy mixture for your Cappuccino! The Milk Island is only one of the two steaming options that come with your Vision. The alternate is just as easy to use! It is called the pannarello wand, sometimes referred to as the turbo frother, which rotates on a ball joint, and is used in the traditional way with a frothing pitcher. Simply submerge the tip of your frother into your milk and let the machine do all the work - steaming up to your desired temperature (140-160 degrees is most recommended).

Choose your own grind settings, strength settings, pre-infusion, intensity, etc. If you should want a latte after dinner, but are concerned about the caffeine keeping you up, simply use the bypass doser. Pour in a scoop of ground decaf coffee, select the pre ground option within the touch screen, and select your volume by touching one of the cup sizes on the display screen. Now that your espresso is brewed, turn the knob to steam your milk using the easy turbo frother or milk island. Gaggia has gone above and beyond by incorporating the LED touch screen display, stainless steel control panel, rapid steam boiler, and the two ways to froth, creating a very simple, consistent and reliable machine to operate.

One of the most fun features of the machine to get your hands on is the programming.
