Hi guys,
I'm putting my beloved orange Baby Gaggia up for sale. I've come a long way since getting this a few months ago and now that I can produce a great brew, the wife has pushed me to get rid of it. You may be thinking "that's odd" but bear with me. She hates the old school vintage orange exterior - whereas I have become quite the fan
Anyway - she wants something that fits in with the new kitchen so I must say goodbye to all my hard work.
This machine is in great condition even though it's approx 40 years old. From what I can work it, it was built around 1977.
Here are the specs:
- recently replaced pump (original could barely push 4 bar)
- OPV (recently adjusted - 10 bar static / 9 bar dynamic)
- Three way valve
- 58mm group handle + 2 shot (14g) basket
- PID for brew / wired for steam (I've left the original steam thermostat installed as a failsafe but found that the PID didn't change the steaming ability whatsoever so simply turned it off in the PID settings. It can just as easily be switched back on)
- fresh boiler seal
Asking for $250
