I was cleaning my Gaggia New Baby portafilter, had my trash in one hand, my black 2 way pin in the other...accidentally opened the wrong hand over a huge trash, and threw out my pin! I frantically went through all of my accessories that came with my New Baby, looking for a replacement pin...sadly...

Tracys ♦ The 2 way pin is for the pressurized Gaggia filter baskets. If you do not have a grinder and want to produce good creme this can help. Simply place in the portifilter handle and then add the filter basket. Here is a video that shows how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSZR7YwPFvA&list=PL818C139530D00316&index=8
Does this fit the classic gaggia model number 14101? I want to make sure before we purchase it as ours was thrown away by accident...

Kristen C Katie, yes, the Black 2 Way Pin (Black Insert PR Basket) does fit in the Gaggia porta filters with the pressurized baskets.

mjackson ♦ Dean,
It enables the pressurized baskets to work. If your grind is not correct or fine enough it still lets you brew an espresso. It is used with the two baskets that have the dime size shape on the bottom and the pin hole in the opening. It is not used if the grind is correct and you use the basket that has the openings all the way through it. This basket is used when you have a good espresso grinder. You will need the pin if you use the pressurized baskets.
Michael Rosso ♦ Kelly...Thank you for your posting to the Super Wall. Don't feel bad everyone has a black pin eaten by their garbage disposal. Thanks.
Does this piece fit the Gaggia Classic potafilter?
Thanks! :)
