  • Gaggia Classic and what grinder

    I just purchased a Gaggia Classic and i would like to hear from people about a Grinder that suits this machine or just a decent grinder in my price range $150 to $200. I no that is not much but its all i can afford.

    Hi tysson. I think most would agree that the best (and maybe only) option for you is the Sunbeam EM0450. The EM0480 is ~$220 and looks a bit more fancy but has the same internals.

    Other than that, all I could recommend is keeping an eye out for a well cared for second hand grinder. I believe the above is your only option if you definitely want new.

      Before someone corrects me...

      Your other option is a Kyocera hand grinder available from another CS member au_d2

          Good luck tysson. Many reports suggests that this model does not grind fine enough out of the box for good espresso. However there is an easy modification you can do to correct this.

          Try it out and see how you go. Plenty of information on the modification here or elsehwhere if needed. Have even seen YouTube videos showing you how to do it.
