Not so long ago I decided to hack my #Gaggia espresso machine with the #Gaggiuino mod. It’s an interesting project if you want to tinker with the machine and learn how it works. The documentation could be better, especially because they expect that if you need any more information you should go to their Discord, which I kind of hate. Give me a nice wiki with most common issue and I’d be happy, thank you very much

However, after the second error I had in a week (the machine wouldn’t heat up the boiler) I decided that life is too short to deal with yet another computer just to make coffee, so I reverted back to the original stock wiring in my #Gaggia, and man what a relief. It’s just a simple machine doing what it has to do and I couldn’t care less about coffee profiles and what not.

I guess the learning here is don’t put another touch screen in your life if you don’t have to
