The Gaggia Classic Pro Evo is out! Click here for a full review. This is a 2023 revision on the much loved Gaggia Classic Pro which also punched far above its price class. The Evo is around $500. If you’re looking for a deal, now might be a good time to snatch up a refurbished unit of the older model. I found one for $375 with a web search.

Here is a separate video of the differences between the two models in more detail. The title post is a full review/overview.

Edit: I just realized you can’t have both an image and a linked video unless you put the link in the body. I added the actual full review link at the top.

      A buddy of mine was shopping for a machine and I suggested he look for old classics on eBay.

      I’m shocked at how much they have shot up in price. Almost certainly because of modders, but still. I got mine 5 years ago for something around $100, but when we checked a few months ago it was hard to find proper ones under $350.

      Then again, I installed a PID kit on mine and don’t regret it.

      The navy blue has been a favourite of mine for a long time but the white and matte black are beautiful.
