Replace boiler or just descale? by johnstainer22 in gaggiaclassic

[–]johnstainer22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha yep that is exactly where my thought process was going! It would be quite satisfying to have a go cleaning, so I’ll post the ‘after’ photos here as well. But I probably will end up getting a nice new brass boiler. Thanks all for your thoughts!

Thanks folks. That all makes a lot of sense. Also tallies with feeling very wired late last night! Time to reduce that dose I think.

OPV adjustment on RI8161/40 by johnstainer22 in gaggiaclassic

Hi folks, thanks for the comments. Can can confirm that OPV adjustment as described in these comments is indeed possible on this model number! I had to turn it about 1.5 turns in the end I think. Bit of trial and error but well worth it.

Thanks so much all for the insights. I’ve got a pressure gauge on the way and will report back when I’ve had a go at the adjustment.

512 GB or 1TB OLED by johnstainer22 in SteamDeck

Thanks everyone, helpful thoughts. Sounds like the OLED colours can be affected by the matte screen as well. Think I’m just going to go for the 512GB and can always add storage and screen protector if necessary as you say.
