    Thansk for the info there CoffeeGeek!
  3. Home Roasters
    Hello and thanks for your response. I asked the person selling them and he said that the roaster would work perfectly on the 220v with just a simple end-adapter. Considering the business repairs and sells behmors I'd say that his opinion is sufficient.

    Hi guys, I have recently been trying to track down / see when the 220v behmor is available in europe again. Then during my research I found at least one site that sells the 220/240v australian ones. Isn't this a viable option for us in europe? I live in Norway at the moment and our power is...

    thanks for the feedback. So basically there is some reason to this drying of the gasket comment?
  6. Barista Skills for the home enthusiast
    I have a question, I figured I could just ask it here rather than make another thread. When the coffee machine is not in use, are you supposed to have the portafilter mounted in the machine? I read something about if you keep it detatched from the machine it may lead to a quicker gasket problem...
  7. Gaggia Forum
    I got mine for 199 a month and a half ago roughly, and that was the absolute cheapest I was able to find them at that time.
  8. Gaggia Forum
    May I suggest leveling off after doing the general distribution with the needle? The way I do it is overfill the portafilter slightly, WDT within the portafilter, THEN carefully level with a straight 90 degree angle item such as a kitchen knife, shuffeling excess coffee off the portafilter...

    As others have said: The grind I use in my VST 15g clogs the normal basket that came with the portafilter.

    It tasted fantastic. Not bitter at all. Consistent with the other shots from this coffee type. I would describe it as rather earthy(but in a light-ish way), nutty but with some tones of fruit too. Solid body without being syrupy. I haven't described much coffee taste before, but I hope that...

    Yeah, I would adjust it to be somewhat finer for the next one. It had no hints of bitterness to it what so ever though, so I think it went fine all things considered. It's amazing just how sensitive the setup is to the slightest change of beans. I have a darker roast "mocha" bean type from...

    There we go. It wasn't accepting the shortened "youtu.be" link for some reason!

    I can't embed this clip to save my life, any tips?

    Hi there, I'm relatively new to brewing pimping coffee, but this is today's espresso shot. What say yee? [video=youtube;lhGI-7Ilbsc] The hardware is: Gaggia classic with happydonkey bottomless portafilter and a VST 15g basket. The coffee is square mile's musasa rushashi ground in an...
  15. 👋 Introductions 👋
    wow thank you for that offer! I had to use a package forwarding service to get my shipment from happydonkey (the grinder, portafilter and accessories) since they don't ship internationally. As of now I don't really have anything lined up except for maybe a roaster, but im still on the fence on...
  16. 👋 Introductions 👋
    Wow, Thank you all for the very warm welcome. Before i ruin the reputation of all norwegians I should probably state that I am in fact a 50/50 Norwegian American hybrid. I'm born in the US, but lived the majority of my life in Norway. I am very new to the "über coffee" scene, and don't pretend...
  17. Sold
    Hi Doug I am very interested in buying the grinder, I'm a prince from Nigeria. Just kidding, but I do reside in Norway. I will cover the added shipping of course. I had an idea though, since you have an ebay account, why not just list it on there with a £90 buy-it-now? Then both you and I...
  18. Gaggia Forum
    Grats on your buy, here's a piece of info that would have saved some people from some grief: If you are(lets be honest, its WHEN you are ) buying a bottomless portafilter, or any portafilter for that matter the ones that fit most other domestic models such as the classic etc. will not fit...
  19. 👋 Introductions 👋
    Hello there, I'm a newbie coffee fanatic, but I've recently purchased my first real coffee machine : the gaggia classic. As i live in Norway I surf UK shops due to the prices and taxes in Norway. Example, a new gaggia classic in Norway is £510. I bought mine from Italy for £198. anyways, this...
