This is the machine I'm referring to when I say Europiccola. Identical to a post-mil except the boiler cap has a pressure release valve built-in instead of a separate arm.
My other Gaggia is the Classic. Got a PID installed and it feels so uninvolved by comparison. Much better for a big caffeine hit before work though.

Ah that makes sense!
I do love mine, though I do wish they made them with a 58mm group. Most times I have an espresso from mine, I immediately want another. I normally dose around 14.5g, would be nice to be able to get a bit more in!
Also, I've jerry-rigged a cold drip tower from my V60 server, an Aeropress and a Dr. Pepper bottle. Hoping for another warm day tomorrow so I can give it a go!
Nice! You have a Europiccola too right? I'm assuming they're basically the same barring a few cosmetic differences?
