Classic Pro

Hi All First time poster, long time lurker… I’ve been overhauling a neglected 2019 Gaggia classic Pro which has sat for a while. It was my first coffee machine that pulled me down the rabbit hole some 7 years ago… went on to a Quick Mill Pippa and then onto my current daily driver, a Rocket Appartam

used gaggia classic pro is prob the best bang for buck imo. built like a tank, easy to mod later if u get obsessed, and holds resale value. paired with a decent grinder it’ll easily give you real espresso without spending breville dual boiler money. for something simpler, the breville bambino or bam

Ia espressor și râșniță separat, e mai practic. Daca vrei sa faci upgrade după poți să faci doar la râșniță sau espressor sau ce consideri tu. Plus daca se strica una e mai ușor de înlocuit.

I don’t think the Gaggia is a civic. It’s more like a Fiat 124 Spider. It’s simple, it’s beautiful, it’s Italian, it feels like a Ferrari when you use it. But it’s a budget sports car. And it recently got a refresh (GCP). Add Gaggimate and it’s like a Fiat Spider with Waymo hardware. The civic is a

Gaggia classic pro, yes it would. Honestly you can just get it and never get another machine.

Okay, know that is probably entry level for espresso. Doesn't mean you can't get something good but it might not be a forever setup. Best advice is to make sure you're getting a good grinder as that's the more important of the two. There are a lot of options still, and as some of said it's probably

Congrats! You have basically two Gaggia Classic Pro boilers for $70. You could easily mod this or keep it stock and enjoy traditional shots of this. This is a great deal. You should post this up r/gaggiaclassic

Gaggia Classic Pro is all manual. Reliable and easy to upgrade. Pair it with a Baratza Encore ESP. That’s about $800.
