Subject: Best double basket for Gaggia Classic?
|
I recently acquired two used machines: a Gaggia Classic Gold and an
older Gaggia Coffee (thanks to David Ross for identifying them).
Between the two of them, they only have one aluminum portafilter and
one single basket. So, I'm off to buy one brass portafilter and two
double baskets. Any suggestions?
(BTW, when I got it, the Classic was well clogged with coffee residue,
probably lots of scale, and the steamer was clogged with milk.
Compared with the 5 used espresso machines I have cleaned so far, the
Classic had, by far, the most coffee residue. I cleared it with an
initial run through of Cleancaf, followed by repeated backflushings
with Cafiza. I can't imagine getting that machine working without
either extensive backflushing or disassembly and cleaning.)

The gaggia double basket is pretty good.
