Gaggia Classic Espresso Machine with pre-installed PID + bottomless portafilter

Description

Gaggia Classic Espresso Machine with pre-installed PID + bottomless portafilter.
Serviced and maintained - new shower screen, gasket, opv adjusted to 9 bars exactly.
I used this Gaggia for 5 years. It's a beautiful machine, and it gave me amazing espresso and milk drinks for years.
I have finally decided to upgrade (to a dual boiler).
The machine has been maintained in an amazing way, with a lot of mods/additions, such as:
1 - OPV adjustment to 9 bars for perfect extration of espresso
2 - new silicone gasket
3 - installed a 300$ PID which is a small computer that:
a - controls the temperature of the inner boiler (so you can experiment extractions btw 180-220 F)
b - enhances intra shot heat stability (with Partial Integral Derivative calculations, hence its name PID)
c - allows for a programamble pre-infusion
d - allows for a programmable brew time and pre-infusion time (will send pdf manual)
4 - accumulated a few other baskets and a bottomless portafilter (commercial 58mm size, value 80-100$)
5 - includes a pressure gauge portafilter extension, as shown in picture. So you can check you pressure and adjust the opv if you change the type of beans, or would like to experiment
6 - replaced Gaggia steam wand with Rancilio steam wand, for latte art / improved milk frothing
This Gaggia classic has been hacked to the max!!
There is some minor rusting on the two top screws (as shown in the picture). The rest of the wear and tear is moderate, but the top, where the cup rests and warm up, is reasonably scratched (see pictures).
This Gaggia will work for another decade, needing occasional basic maintenance.
I will ship it after a new descaling and a thorough clean up.
The coffee machine DOES NOT come with the cups! They are just to show the machine. Ask more pictures if you like. It does comes with one regular portafilter, one bottomless portafilter, a pressure gauge, two pressurized baskets (single and double, compatible with pods) and two commercial 58 mm baskets (single and dobule), a double spout.
This is a great and cheap start for espresso freaks!!
Good luck with the bid!
