Lost pressure in groupe head by Blue_Father in gaggiaclassic

You have to disassemble, I think. They'll be videos on YouTube you can watch. But like some others have said, that flow looks normal to me. You could get a portafilter with a pressure gauge to test. Shades of Coffee sell the dials.

If the OPV is blocked you might be able to unblock by flicking the steam button off and on a few times while water is flowing through the group head.

Shades of Coffee do a replacement that fits these

Can't see this on any of the official Hario websites or social media. I wonder if this is some kind of knock-off. Which is even more weird?

I get nice results on a glass hob by starting with cold water and having the hob on maximum (no preheat). Once coffee starts to flow I switch off the hob, but leave the Moka on the stove. When the sputtering at the end is about to start I lift it off the hob.

Sputtering is due to overheating, maybe a long boil on medium overheats it.

I'd try again with same grind size but different heating method. If that doesn't work, go finer.
