Near as I can tell, the @$#*(! I/O switch broke on my Gaggia Baby. Having to go back to the moka pot. WLL should have gotten my machine today, if there's a God, I'll get it back soon. Like tomorrow if there really are miracles. I feel so out of place. Nothing tastes right. Life is not good at the moment.

You could have picked up a properly rated switch from RadioShack to keep you going, then ordered the correct replacement. That would keep the espresso flowing.

... Or, depending on how[(pickone) CRAZY / ADVENTUROUS / BRAVE] you are, you could just short across the terminals (or bypass the switch completely) and turn the machine on and off by using the mains wall plug.
