Hi all,
After churning thru a number of cheap Sunbeams, I decided to lash out (for me anyway) and get a Gaggia Classic.
It arrived today and I excitedly unboxed it, only to end up confused.
It took me a few minutes to find the power cord curled up in the water tank! Who would think to look there? Anyway... alls well that ends well in that respect.
Secondly, the modified instructions refer to something called a crema enhancer which looks to be a small plastic nodule thing that fits down the inside of the hole of the group handle - Ive got one, but it sort of rattles around between the handle and the basket... not necessarily wrong, but not what Id expect!
Thirdly, the instructions have diagrams that clearly show a ring of some kind that seems to fit between the basket and the group handle - I dont seem to have one of these at all.

Is this normal for these machines, or am I missing something?

) - so Im having trouble finding anything that is low and wide enough to fit under both spouts of the group handle... what do other owners use?
