Gaggia Espresso Deluxe Espresso Machine: Review and Test

PID equipped and made in Italy? In this continuation, I exhibit the Gaggia Espresso Deluxe in both basic mode (pressurized baskets and panarello), and in advanced mode (unpressurized basket, bottomless portafilter, 9 bar spring mod, WDT, and tamping).

Finally, I do temperature tests of the PID controlled thermoblock in both basic and advanced modes. Let's see how this little 53mm espresso machine fairs. -- Products used/recommended in this video -- (these are affiliate links that help fund videos like this, at no extra cost to you) Read more: https://tomscoffeecorner.com/gaggia-e... ► Gaggia Espresso Deluxe: 🇩🇪 https://amzn.to/47jvkPX 🇮🇹 https://amzn.to/41Do1RU 🇫🇷 https://amzn.to/3vege0W 🇪🇸 https://amzn.to/3TH0KfN 🇪🇺 https://geni.us/GaggiaEspresso ► Bottomless PF: 🇮🇹 https://amzn.to/48zOZwe 🇩🇪 https://amzn.to/3RDvbBd 🇬🇧 https://amzn.to/41BxcCu ► Springs: 🇺🇸/🇨🇦 https://ebay.us/Az83jF (this is an eBay affiliate link) 🇬🇧 https://bit.ly/3OcPe5Q (link to Shades of Coffee) ► My Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/tomscoffe... ► Delonghi Kit: https://kit.co/tomscoffeecorner/delon... ► Gaggia Kit: https://kit.co/tomscoffeecorner/gaggi... ► Breville Kit: https://kit.co/tomscoffeecorner/sage-... ► Grinder Kit: https://kit.co/tomscoffeecorner/grind... ► Camera Kit: https://kit.co/tomscoffeecorner/studi...
