No I got it back in early 2023, so doubt it’s the 2024. So I run out of steam? I used to, but not anymore. I’ll try to make a video about it soon (I made one a long time ago called “how to steam milk with the gaggia classic pro), but basically, the trick is to start steaming your milk 10-15 seconds after turning the steam wand on. Do not wait for the light to turn on.
@@OneSipCoffeee mine has a upgraded wand but I flick the steam switch and count to 10 and start steaming before the light comes on. That way I don't run out of power!
I gotta practice my art more too, getting smaller cups like that looks fun. I got a PID kit for my classic pro and the steaming setting are cool but man ive been buying 2% and its so much hard to steam, gonna go back to whole or try some barista blend oat milk LOL
Ouuu you got a PID? Does it make it much easier? I think what would make a huge difference is simply getting the single hole tip, I have yet to do it tho idk why (I guess I wanna make a vid about it and I’m just too lazy to set that all up rn lol).
@@OneSipCoffeeeMainly got the PID just to keep stable temperature cause I would temp surf a LOT (flush til brew light turns off, count to 10 seconds after light comes back on) so now after I dial in dose, grind and shot timing, gonna start messing with temps to get it slightly more perfect But as for steaming yeah, I no longer have to do that "wait 10 seconds then steam" trick, the steam setting on the PID keeps it stable perfectly. Just got be consistent with the swirl lol I'm also tempted to get a single tip too, but it's obviously not impossible to get good steam... Kinda wanna just keep trying cause half the time it feels like I just gotta "git gud" lol
Hahaa I feel you with wanting to keep trying and improve your skills instead of buying a tool to get better…. But I finally caved and bought a single hole tip 😅 will setup once it arrives and let you know.
@nathe-kun Hmmm do you notice a significant difference when you were temp surfing and now with the PID? I tried temp surfing, but didn’t like the workflow. PID could be cool, maybe one day
Haha oh man I wish you commented that a month ago 😅 if you check my newest video, I actually broke my portafilter, and like you said, it’s cause my gasket is old and so I was turning my portafilter too far to create a seal 🥲
Awesome 👍
Nice trick for extra practice
Thanks! I’ve also started pulling the shots into two cups
do you ever run out of steam? Is that the new E24 Gaggia? Anyway the coffee looks good

But yea, the GCP steam wand sucks and I had such a hard time with it for so long

Nice nice, what year did you get yours? Is it still a 2 hole tip (no idea why 2 hole tips exist haha)

Haha I feel yea, it’s tough with 2%, but doable if done perfectly. 3.25-3.75% is ideal

You might need to take a look at the gasket on your gaggia, your handle way too far over when you lock it in :(
Coffee looks good though ;)

@@OneSipCoffeee aw no that sucks! Looking forward to what you post next :)
Yeaa that’s life, good excuse to buy a new one I guess haha.
Thanks! Posting daily 😄
