Description
I needed something to hold my two Kruve Propel Espresso and two Kruve Imagine Latte Plus glasses but only two would fit on top of the Gaggia Classic Pro.
I liked nielsie645's water reservoir cover with hinged lid and the Kruve Propel Espresso glass could fit in place of the 58mm tamper of the original model; I just had to enlarge the diameter by 4mm.
To be able to fit both the espresso and latte glasses, I had to shift the espresso holder all the way to the left and there was just enough room for the latte glass to fit. Obviously, a hole wouldn't fit the entire latte glass so I had to add a raised lip to hold the glass.
After my first prototype, I found that the latte glass holder was sized ~2mm too small so there was a small wiggle room for the latte glass. I added 1mm thick foam adhesive tape to the raised lip and it held the glass perfectly. I actually liked this “feature” since it added some cushion and gave a snug fit so I left the dimensions alone.
All four glasses sit on top of my Gaggia Classic Pro now and looks amazing! I hope you can benefit from this model and please post a comment/make if you use this!
Note : the photos were taken after a prototype that did not have the hinged lid assembly centered within the latte glass holder.
