Gaggia Milano G500: Prime Milk vs. Latte Velluto

The Gaggia Milano G500 (widely recognised as La Solare) is the pinnacle of the Gaggia super-automatic range. While both the Prime Milk and Latte Velluto models share the same elegant Italian aesthetic and dual-boiler performance, they are engineered for different levels of menu complexity.

Choosing the right model depends on whether you require a reliable, high-quality coffee solution or a versatile, gourmet workstation capable of serving the latest cold-foam and plant-based trends.

G500 Prime Milk: The Professional Standard

The Prime Milk version is designed for venues that want barista-quality espresso and classic milk-based drinks with total consistency.

• Barista-Quality Hot Foam: The Prime Milk system delivers velvety hot foam for flat whites, lattes, and cappuccinos at the touch of a button.

• Compact Interface: The 7-inch landscape touchscreen is intuitive and space-efficient, providing a streamlined selection process for staff or self-service users.

• Reliable Performance: Equipped with a 16g Z4000 brewing group and an 800cc coffee boiler, it easily handles high-volume demand while maintaining the thermal stability Gaggia is famous for.

G500 Latte Velluto: The Gourmet Powerhouse

The Latte Velluto is the "everything" machine, offering a level of versatility usually reserved for the highest-tier commercial equipment.

• Cold Milk & Dual Milk Technology: This is the standout upgrade. The Latte Velluto can produce silky cold milk foam for iced coffee menus. Furthermore, it supports Dual Milk technology, allowing you to serve dairy and plant-based alternatives simultaneously from two separate sources.

• The 21g Stainless Steel Group: The upgrade to the 21g stainless steel Z4000 brewer allows for larger coffee doses and better heat retention. This is essential for venues serving large-format "to-go" cups or those wanting a more intense espresso extraction.

• Immersive 10” Display: The larger 10-inch screen does more than just look premium; it allows for enhanced customisation, promotional videos, and a more detailed nutritional information display.

Which should you choose?

• Select the G500 Prime Milk if: You need a high-performance, reliable machine for a standard coffee menu. It is perfect for restaurants and executive offices where hot, high-quality coffee is the primary requirement.

• Select the G500 Latte Velluto if: You want to future-proof your business. If your menu includes iced lattes, plant-based milk options, or if you serve a high volume of large takeaway coffees, the Latte Velluto’s advanced pump system and 21g brewer make it the superior investment.

Gaggia Milano Professional Range: 2026 Comparison Guide

Choosing the right super-automatic machine depends on your daily volume, your milk preferences, and whether your environment is staff-led or self-service. Below is a comprehensive comparison of the G100, G300, G500, and G700 series.

Which G-Series is for you

The G100: The Compact Specialist

• Best for: Locations where counter space is at a premium, but quality cannot be compromised.

• Key Advantage: It offers the smallest footprint in the range while still providing a professional 16g brewing group. It is the "entry-level" professional machine that still feels like a luxury appliance.

The G300: The Self-Service Hero

• Best for: High-traffic areas where speed and low maintenance are vital.

• Key Advantage: The 3-cup sensor makes it foolproof for customers, while the powdered milk system drastically reduces cleaning time and "Total Cost of Ownership." It is built for reliability in demanding, unmonitored environments.

The G500: The Gourmet All-Rounder

• Best for: Venues with a diverse menu including iced coffees and dairy alternatives.

• Key Advantage: This is the most versatile machine for modern coffee trends. With the Latte Velluto system, you can offer dairy-free oats lattes and chilled foam drinks that match the quality of a specialist coffee house.

The G700: The High-Volume Workhorse

• Best for: Peak-hour service where speed and "Barista-grade" extraction are non-negotiable.

• Key Advantage: Designed for the heaviest workloads, the G700 features the most robust internal components and the EvoMilk system. It is the closest a super-automatic machine comes to a traditional manual espresso setup in terms of texture and taste.

Prime Coffee Suppliers: Elevating the Standard at Host Milano 2025

A Pilgrimage to the Heart of Italian Espresso

the Prime Coffee Suppliers team embarked on a journey to Host Milano, the global epicentre of hospitality and coffee innovation. Held at the Rho Fiera Milano, this biennial event is where the future of the coffee industry is written. For us, the mission was clear: to witness first-hand the latest advancements from our partners at Gaggia Milano and ensure we continue to bring only the most durable and reliable equipment to our UK clients.

Standing at the Evoca Group pavilion, it was impossible not to feel the pride behind the Gaggia brand. With a heritage stretching back to 1938, Gaggia didn't just showcase machines; they showcased a masterclass in Italian engineering.

The Spotlight: Durability Meets Digital Intelligence

The star of the show for us was the G Line, specifically the G700. While many manufacturers are pivoting toward lighter, more plastic-heavy builds, Gaggia has doubled down on robustness.

• The Z4000 Brewer: We spent time with the engineers discussing the 16g Z4000 brewer. Its stainless-steel components and pre-heated group are built for the "marathon" of high-volume service, delivering up to 300 cups a day without flinching.

• A Solid Investment: Our visit confirmed what we’ve always told our customers: Gaggia machines are a long-term asset. Seeing the internal layout of the PowerSteam model—with its dedicated 1.5L steam boiler and high-grade copper piping—reaffirmed why these units are the gold standard for reliability.

"At Host Milano, you see thousands of machines, but Gaggia stands out because they don’t compromise on the 'bones' of the machine. The chassis is rigid, the components are professional-grade, and the technology is intuitive rather than over-complicated."

— The Prime Coffee Suppliers Team
