This build log shows how the Gaggiuino project gives an old Gaggia Classic modern features to step up your espresso experience.
It is not a step by step guide as it depends on the components and machine used but should give an overview about how this modification can be done.

Big thanks for putting this together. I've ordered the GCP, and will be getting the PCB3, hopefully the August, 1st run. I'm sure, I'll be rewatching this video many times, once I have all the parts, and start working on the mods.

@v0idgrim Год назад

Just got My PCB for the same GB :) watching because of that. I'm also thinking about mounting the screen in the front. Actually might redesign the nexion to work with their bigger screens so I can get some more detail and resolution :)

@lib747 Год назад

@@v0idgrimI really like the look of a front mounted screen, but I'm worried that the group head heat might be too high.

Amazing piece of work. I looking forward for updates of this project.

@BKHD605 Год назад

That's insane, been thinking about making something like this for weeks after seeing a video on the zpm nocturn. This should be a good watch.

@rick5078 Год назад

If you are going to do this build with a gaggia classic, make sure to get the 1991 classic version or the new classic pro version, the more recent classic version has different parts.

@Joseph_Coutts Месяц назад

Thanks for this video. I just got V3.1 kit from PeakCC but have be struggling to visualise the schematics and connections. This does a great job with that

@justin2956 18 дней назад

How did your install go with the 3.1? There aren’t any videos or info out there about the 3.1 install and end results. I’m getting ready to do this mod myself.

@Joseph_Coutts 17 дней назад

@justin2956 my recommendation is do the custom cables. Rather than trying to work out the stock integration

@TimothyScotts1 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for putting this up! The Gaggiuino is a project I cant wait to get started :) I ordered pretty much all the mods you can get for it, but this is the first time I've seen the hardware scales in place. They look as though they work really damn well!

@dazza9360 5 месяцев назад

Brilliant vid on the Gaggiuino build. Thank you so much.

@phillipterrance4171 Год назад

Amazing! Your video came just in time, I was planning to start my GC PCB v3 build this week :-) thanks for the time you put into this, it's very informative.

@thedude4795 Год назад

Haha, didn't know we had another common interest! I also own a gaggia classic. No pid.

Nice Project. Thx for the video. I have planed with a mate to build a full coffeemaschine. Not only expresso. Grüße aus dem Schwabendland :)

@josefzachariassen Год назад

Thanks for this video! I have the same old machine and am awaiting the last parts for the Gaggiuino mod. Will definitely use this video as help for the installation :)

Thanks for the video! Great project!!

@dr.emmettbrown8466 День назад

Great project! Is the source code open? If so, where can I download it? I'm doing a similar project, but for Rancilio Silvia and on STM32F413VGT6

@MrVals90 7 месяцев назад

hi, congratulations for the work. one question...did you assemble the pcb yourself or did you have the person who printed it do it?

@CH-yp5by Год назад

I'm surprised you did not upgrade the shower plate with a brass one

@Gigawipf Год назад

Yeah i should have. I thought about it but it was more expensive and assumed the original one would be fine.

@xrhesusx7301 9 месяцев назад

Do you have an estimate how much the built cost you?

@Conservator. Год назад

12:18 Isolating the boiler might help (if there’s enough room to do so).

@Gigawipf Год назад

yes that would be possible but also make maintenance harder if you want to get to the controller

@CH-yp5by 9 месяцев назад

Its a really good video I have 2006 classic with the PID and pressure Gauge with dimmer mod and am thinking of going this mod. I was wondering why did you not do an SSR for the steam? Is this because you did the Ardiuno not the STM32 upgrade Gaggiuino mod.

@Gigawipf 9 месяцев назад

There is no extra part required for anything steam related. Steam mode is just increasing the boiler target temperature. The heaters are already controlled by an ssr.

@thedude4795 Год назад

I hold the steam wand at half the radius in the jug to facilitate whirling. But not bad for a start at all! How was the coffee?

@flippy9133 Год назад

very cool

@alexp2306 3 месяца назад

How did you wired the water pump? I am building the lego version and I am not sure how to go witth the wires from the dimmer to the water pump and what. Thank you in advance

@adfadf9785 9 месяцев назад

Is there a way to a more simple mod where the heating element turns on when you push the brew button to get higher and more stable brew temp?

@nicholashorswill4052 9 месяцев назад

A PID kit is about $100 and allows precise temp control. You still need to open the machine but it's pretty easy.

@ZaidJilani Год назад

may ask why did you choose PCB over lego build?

@Gigawipf Год назад

Because it is much smaller and will be more reliable if there are less wires between the modules. Overall a cleaner setup

@johnspanos3862 Год назад

Can this be done with the new gaggia classic 2023 evo pro? Thanks!

@rohit275 11 месяцев назад

Not OP, but yes it can. I'm planning to do that as soon as my parts come in

@taylorwarwas4425 Год назад

Where do you purchase the PCB? kinda a silly question

@BobberWCC Год назад

Awesome

@v0idgrim Год назад

Hi, Is there a reason why you did not use PTFE tube for the pressure valve?

@Gigawipf 9 месяцев назад

Its just what i bought and a clear tube makes it easier to see if bubbles remain. Should still be food safe of course.

@jakubpesko868 Год назад

Would you be willing to share a profile you use for an espresso. It is kind of tricky to set the right settings. It's not as straightforward as I thought it will be.

@Gigawipf Год назад

That would depend on the rest of your setup. Better check out the gaggiuino community and what they recommend. I usually use something close to default settings, 2bar preinfusion, 9 bar start and a duration of hopefully about 20-30s but depends on what you want to brew and how you grind and prepare it.

No it is still a manual system but automatically keeps the pressure.

Thx for the vid. Is this the v2 version? It says that the project wont work on this

@Gigawipf 11 месяцев назад

@michalthestink 11 месяцев назад

@@Gigawipf In the gaggiuino docs I see that there are five 220v models - the OG classic, v2, pro, pro eco, evo pro which one is the v3 that you've mentioned? Also the docs specified that the v2 which looks just like yours is not supported, what do i miss?:/ Sorry for the stupid questions, I just purchased the v2 especially for the project and ran into the compatibility table and unfortunately mine in the unsupported list:(

i asked about doing this to my delonghi ecp3420 in the community and they straight up dissed me and just called the delonghi trash instead of helping me make it not trash . extremely toxic and elitist community . too bad because the project could have been open truely open source if it wasnt for the creators being so weird about addapting this to other brands of cheap machines. i got help outsode the community and it worked great . great project but terrible entitled and judgemental people as is often the case with open source

@erick8862 4 месяца назад

The name of the project is Gaggiuino, not Delongino

@user-hk8np4dw4o Месяц назад

Your complaint is foolish. Someone made a mod for a specific product and you are mad they wouldn’t specifically design an entirely new mod for your cheaper machine? Not to mention the machine you are using uses inferior internal parts. Do you go into a grocery store and get mad because they don’t sell lumber too?
