The other day i bought one of these machines off gumtree to use as spare parts for my Gaggia Classic as it was "broken". Cost me $25....

So i started to read up on these machines and saw that the Solenoid valve is pretty prone to being clogged..thought i'de check it out and turns out I fixed it and it is now working! The machine was filthy though and it looked like it had never seen descaler in its life.

Anyways, does anyone own one of these machines? Just wondering if there were any tips when using it. I am pretty happy with the shots it is currently pulling..ill be taking it to work and using it as my work coffee machine
