“Like many here, I replaced the pannerello on our Gaggia Classic with this Rancilio wand. Took only five minutes to replace. Much better for lattes and cappuccinos!”
“I also changed out this wand on my Gaggia Classic, it takes all of five minutes as i've done it on another Gaggia. This wand works great as a replacement and easy to create great micro foam for a latte or cappuccino”
“I replaced the steam wand on my Gaggia Classic with this steam wand. It was easy to install and worked perfectly the first time. I mostly make lattes so I want lots of steamed milk with just a little foam - no problem. I received my order quickly; thanks for that!”
“I have the discontinued Gaggia Espresso model and I purchased the Silva steam wand to replace the one that came with the machine. The replacement job is slightly more difficult for this model than for the Classic since the fitting between the steam wand and the steam pipe does not extend down far enough to be accessible from outside of the housing. I had to remove the top and the fitting to the steam valve to allow the steam wand fitting to drop down for removal. It is not complicated. The new wand is a big improvement!”
“The only tricky piece of the install was taking the nut off of the original Gaggia. You have to bend it just a tiny bit in order for it to easily slide off. I didn't use any tools, just my hands and bent it so little you can't even visually see it is any different. Honestly when I did attempt to bend it, I didn't think it had moved, but it was just enough to slide the nut off the original. So much better of an option than the gimmick plastic foamer thingy that came on the Gaggia Classic.”
“Just bought this steam wand for my Gaggia Classic. I've read and heard from so many different sources that this is a must do upgrade when it comes to the Gaggia Classics. I'm very excited for it, and will be installing it as soon as it arrives.”
