Why Upgrade? Original Gaggia knobs often degrade due to mineral buildup in hard water areas—a problem this part combats with PTFE-lined joints and angled grooves that channel condensation away from internal mechanisms. Includes illustrated installation guide compatible with both manual and PID-controlled machines (no specialized tools required).
Ideal for cafes maintaining 10+ daily use machines or home baristas noticing: ⚠️ Difficulty releasing pressure ⚠️ Burnt milk odors ⚠️ Moisture pooling near group head
backed by a 3-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects—longer than most third-party alternatives (12-24 months typical). Restock your inventory with this cost-effective solution that outperforms “universal” steam knobs lacking model-specific engineering.*
