    Hi!  I have a Gaggia Classic which I think is very similar to the carezza in how it operates.  The case is a bit different though.....  I also took my machine to Dynamic with a similar problem.   :-?  They fixed it up great.    I think the pump was faulty.  Im surprised you are having trouble.  Did you take it back?  Have you been descaling the machine?  I had a blockage in my machine and managed to make it better with some descaler.  I left it on with descaler inside for about 30 minutes while reading the paper.  The stuff that came out was cloudy.  Worked great after that.  Id suggest that you should try a descale if you havent already.  Failing that take it back to Dynamic for a quick look.

    Hope you are not drinking instant....

    Gaggia Carezza dead

    I have a Gaggia Carezza from which Ive had over 6 years moderate use (about 4xcappuccino a week). A while back the pump pressure seemed a bit weak so I sent it for repairs and it came back with a good fraction of the internal plumbing replaced, which didnt strike me as exactly the right solution; it seemed no different after. Recently its had a more major failure: if you try to make an espresso, you get a brilliant flash at the switch and no pump action.

    Is it time to put the machine in the trash or is this repairable at reasonable cost? (Im not sure if I trust the original repair shop, Dynamic Electroservices, Brisbane -- they seem to operate on a standard parts list basis rather than diagnose and fix.)
