Hi all,
I own two Gaggia Classic (and a Coffee) and one of the Classic have a problem, I think...
This happened after a complete cleaning of the boiler ( dismounted and cleaned it with a dremel )
It is always boiling the water when is warming water. I mean, if you open the steam valve, steam is always coming out. I exchanged the upper temperature sensor with the one in the Coffee, to check if the sensor was faulty. The same behaviour.
Also I rechecked the cabling.
The red light that tells us that the machine is warming goes on and off very often, and when is on it is for a very short time ( 5 seconds, more or less...)
What could be the cause of this issue?
When I installed the temperature sensor I did it without the temperature mastik ( the white paste..). Could be this the cause??
Also the steam wand leaks small drops at the tip, but this is, I guess, an o-ring; no big deal.
Thank you all for reading me
