Recently got a Gaggia Classic Pro Evo, and after few trials and error, was able to pull this espresso shot!.

I finally have my foot in the world of espresso!

Did you check if it has the flaking issue? I bought one a week ago and it already has flakes through the steam wand. Seems like Gaggia is ignorant of the issue.

Here is an article about the issue: Boilergate

You can check yours by running some water via the steam wand, if you find any small black grinds in the cup, that is the coating peeling.

I have not yet faced this issue. I will check this tomorrow.
