Intro to the Gaggia Espresso - coffeecrew.com - victoria, b.c. canada (#)

  „To pick one point of issue with the machine, from the lofty perspective that the Gaggia Espresso is already so very capable, would be to question the length of the steam wand. Designed to be long enough with the plastic turbofrother attached, Gaggia has thankfully made this crutch removable as they did for the pressurized filter insert. However, removing the frothing device to achieve what Gaggia is truly capable of results in an overly short and awkwardly bent wand that is difficult to manage. Those with a Classic, Baby, or possibly the Carezza will rejoice in that several owners have fitted Silvia steam wands to their Gaggias without much trouble.“

The Hidden Planet - coffeecrew.com - victoria, b.c. canada

  „Much of their traffic, quickly served, wandered back on their way to their ultimate destination, carrying with them their daily fix. Others who needed a quick break from their rounds were greeted by handy pedestal tables, just enough room to dress their beverage and sit back a moment, contemplating the ingredients in the enticing Planet coffeecake. Those wanting to sink down into a longer stay were accommodated further back, away from the bustle at the door.“

De-scaling - coffeecrew.com - victoria, b.c. canada

  „Most other machines do have their heating elements inside the boiler - a natural accumulation point for scale build up. If anyone has looked at the scale build up in an old kettle - you will know what it looks like. It's not a pretty sight.“
