Hi all
I picked up a very unloved 2000 model Baby Gaggia for $5 at a garage sale, boy did it take some cleaning, lots of crap come out of it took about 2 hrs too clean but apart from the missing panarello it seems to pull good shots although I havnt got a 58mm tamper and its a bit hard trying to tamp with the bottom of a beer glass. My question is it seems to throw out a lot of steam when you hit the brew switch with out the portafilter handle on before the water come out. Is this normal ?I have a Sunbeam EM380 and it doesnt do that or is that the differnce between a thermoblock and a boiler unit
Regards
Robert
