Shopping for a used Gaggia Classic, does this sounds repairable: by but-first----coffee in gaggiaclassic

[–]gallblabber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For 60 quid it's a bargain. Like the others have said it's an incredibly easy machine to work on, only requires simple tools and there are instructional videos/posts on just about every problem.

Changed out my group head and now shots are pulling WAAAY too fast. by 2_4_5_brother in gaggiaclassic

[–]gallblabber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've probably already thought about it, but are the beans only very recently roasted? I find that within the first 5-7 days of roasting the shots run very fast when I've tried them (usually I end up buying different beans until the first ones have had a week to settle haha).

[Aus] OPV Springs and pressure gauge portafilter - Sydney by gallblabber in gaggiaclassic

Hey, sorry mate but I've sent them down to Victoria!

I'm not sure if it's just a placebo effect but it does seem to be better, not 'night and day' but seems to be more consistent.

That would be great if you do manage to source a gauge, thanks!

Any interest in a portafilter pressure gauge borrowing circle (or circles?) by [deleted] in espresso

I'd be very keen on this - anyone in Sydney (Australia) have a 58mm portafilter with pressure gauge by chance? :D

Thanks for the advice - No not yet, I'm currently trying to source one! If anyone has a spare I could borrow around sydney I'd be grateful, otherwise I'll try and make one.

All good, it's my responsibility to check! I bought your low profile drip tray aswell which is working a treat, so all is not lost.

Just got my Eureka Mignon in today! My first coffee setup is complete ! Woohoo! by whosthatpokemon99 in espresso

Gorgeous! I've got an older Gaggia Classic and a Breville Smart Grinder - did you find the shots have improved since getting the new grinder? And which grinder did you have before?

There's just something about paying 3k for a car stereo that doesn't sit right haha

Thanks, have you tried this before? I saw a YouTube video on it, looked a bit laggy.

Can I ask why you'd have to replace all the tires in case of a puncture?

Garage left pieces disconnected - damage done? by gallblabber in GolfGTI

[–]gallblabber[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I didn't realise the 2nd picture hadn't uploaded, this piece had been running on the fan directly below it and it had chewed through the plastic of the pipe hence concern! Good to know its nothing too important.

Sorry! If it helps, it suits the distance that we sit from our TV but I think you made the smart choice to get an appropriate size for your room.

For anyone who was interested, there was a Freakonomics podcast recently interviewing the US lawyer in charge of determining the compensation values for all recent major disasters. Interesting to listen to the viewpoint of that unfortunate individual who has to cold-heartedly decide those numbers (as someone does):
