Repair and upgrade guides for home espresso machines.

HomeBaristaMods publishes repair and upgrade guides for home espresso machines. We started with the Gaggia Classic Pro and also cover the Rancilio Silvia, DeLonghi Dedica, Breville/Sage, Flair 58 and Lelit Anna.

Where the information comes from

Manufacturer manuals and service documents, fixes that owner communities have documented, and our own hands-on work where a guide notes it. Each guide lists its sources in a References section.

What we tested and what we did not

Some steps are checked on our own machines. When a guide describes a fix we have not carried out ourselves, it says the step comes from a manual or from community reports. We do not make up measurements.

Work safely

Espresso machines run on mains voltage and have hot, pressurised boilers. Unplug the machine and let it cool before you open it. If a step is beyond your experience, ask a qualified technician.

Links and how we earn

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. The details are in our affiliate disclosure.

Independent from machine makers
