Comparing Gaggia Classic Models Series. Video 2: 9 Bar Modding. Worth it? Let's Find Out + Tutorial.

This is the second in my series on comparing the Gaggia Classic Models. In this video I'm wanting to find out if the 9 bar mod is worth doing.
(Scroll to the bottom for time codes).

The Gaggia Classic comes factory set to higher than 9 bars, but you can modify it to 9 bars simply by swapping out a spring.

I'm doing the mod in this video so you can see how it's done, and I'm taste testing with my Gaggia Classic which hasn't yet had the pressure adjusted.

I'm using the Eureka Mignon Specialita grinder for this test, a great grinder I've been using for the past few weeks. For more on this grinder see: https://coffeeblog.co.uk/em
