Without any bias, with all facts considered, do boiler espresso machines produce better coffee than thermoblock machines?

A 50ml boiler for 40ml shots will do that... GCP was good 15 years ago when there was $400 Gaggia or the much more expensive 4-figure E61 group option. Now we've got loads of good machines to choose from.

Inversely, look at the Gaggia classic pro. Not relatively expensive, but still a lot of money for a machine that you still need to do a bunch of little tricks or a rather costly mod to make sure your water temperature is adequate.

Is this a fair price? Should I pull the trigger and buy? (Likely Cross posting) It’s already modded and is a full set up; first proper espresso machine jitters😅

Agreed, price is high for the PCB/screen version he has installed. No option for updates. He could buy a used GCP on FB for $300 and gaggia mate kit and still have $300 for whatever he wants.

Finally finished Gaggiuino mod

I've seen this exact thingie mentioned in the gaggiuino's alternate component list, here is the link: https://www.printables.com/model/647745-gaggia-classic-pro-evo-neon-lamp-clip. Sadly it's just a 3D print, maybe those others links are better, but damn 8e for that ?

What's the Best Espresso Machine for Home Use Widely Loved by Aficionados?

I have the Lelit Victoria PL91T at home. Chosen after long comparisons. Went from a Gaggia Classic Pro. Way better experience. Cannot recommend more. Excellent price/quality ratio for me.

Used Gaggia Classic - good deal? [$450]

Terrible deal, I sold my Gaggia Classic pro with gaggimate for $600 on marketplace

First setup 😮‍💨😭

I just got my Ele last week, I cannot recommend it enough coming from a gaggia classic pro 2019. If you can stretch the budget for it you won't be disappointed.

I own both a Gaggimate Pro Gaggia Classic and a Lelit Bianca – here's what surprised me

Accessories. The E61 ecosystem is huge – bottomless portafilters, flow control devices, shower screens, you name it. Gaggia accessories exist but it's a smaller world. "you name it" is pretty vague. Do you mean the total number of E61 accessories is vastly greater than for the GCP or the number of c

The steaming on the Nuova Simonelli Oscar II is ridiculous

I only make 1 - 2 cups too. But I never have to wait for the steam to refill or all that I used to do with my Gaggia classic pro. I think 550ml will pull of a couple of cups no problems at all, at the end of the day I use a fraction of the side of my boiler, but I didn't have lots of options in my l
