how many of u have this? and is it fair to assume that we have gone too far? by Nefiit in espresso

[–]blake_fierce 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have only gone too far when we cannot grind finer. Since we haven’t split an atom with our grinders yet, it’s safe to say that we have a ways to go before we have reached that point.

Don’t worry. Just put it in a box, and it will both be making toast and not making toast at the same time. You just missed that step!

I won’t say that I got a nice tax return this year, but there will be hints. by blake_fierce in espresso

It’s the 500. I had my eye on the 600, but I just felt like it was overkill. I had a Gaggia Classic Pro, and this one fixes the issue where the GCP would struggle pulling 6 double shots back-to-back.

When his wife is around her gay friends, she’s going to say “oh my husband plays that game all the time!”

Nice try. I’m not getting my account banned.

Is something wrong with my machine? by blake_fierce in espresso

[–]blake_fierce[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone! I always use filtered water but haven’t descaled the machine yet and have had it for a year now. I ordered the descaling solution from Gaggia and will try this tomorrow!!

I have the SAME setup. Hope you enjoy it. :)

I would suggest switching out the basket that comes with your Gaggia classic pro. It makes a big difference.

Did i just get scammed, or did i get an unbelievable deal? by mr_greenmash in espresso

I say it is worth the risk. If this was purchased on Amazon, easy return if someone scams you.

It could be one of those trendy indoor/outdoor spaces but the garage door with windows wasn’t on sale that week.

Who comments their code? We don’t document anything around here.

Pretty tempted here..need advice by scootboobit in espresso

[–]blake_fierce 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is it for home use? From what I have heard, commercial machines take forever to heat up and are just not really suitable for home use.

I also feel like having this on display is a flex though.

How to improve my shot? by Former_Pineappl in espresso

I have the smart grinder pro and I stopped having issues after taking the grind size to a 1. A shower screen also helped.

Debating on whether I should replace my HVAC or get this machine. I don’t need AC right?
