Gaggia temperature problems

Postby misalda » Tue Nov 22, 2011 9:29 pm

Hi all,
I am having issues with sour shots suddenly and I've just checked the temperature using the foam cup method and can only get 80 deg C..ish
I've used the same Gaggia Classic for about 8yrs with no maintainance other than the usual cleaning.
I assume this means the brew thermostat is faulty, does anyone know the best place to get them in th U.K. ?

Yes sounds like the stat. You could try calling Happy Donkey or Pennine to see if they can help.
