The reservoir is plastic. I own one. It is plastic. Not glass. Plastic,
just like much of the inner workings of the Gaggia Achille Manual Espresso
Machine.
Shouldn’t it take only one pull down? that’s what I do for a smooth
extraction not a really fast one 😀
@jrcbago The Achille does have a sturdy body and that shaking can be
prevented. The key is to balance the downward force used to pull down the
handle by holding on to the portafilter more firmly.
@zck7 Gaggia and La Pavoni are both good choices when selecting an espresso
machine. Gaggia has been making mainly home use espresso machines for about
65 years while La Pavoni makes a large variety of commercial and some home
use espresso machines. I don’t view one as being more reliable than the
other. Like I stated before, both Gaggia and La Pavoni are both good
choices when it comes to espresso machines.
@lewys258 Actually, the successive pulls were to achieve the desired volume
of espresso. Typically, it takes 2 pulls to make a double shot.
@zck7 The reservoir is glass.
this machine looks like it has a good sturdy body BUT it shakes with every
single move you make. Why is that?
