Know before you buy
No, this is strictly the brass upper burr plate. The grinding burrs are not included and must be purchased or reused separately.
This plate is specifically designed as a direct replacement for the Gaggia MDF grinder. It is not compatible with other Gaggia models, so please verify your machine's model number before ordering.
Brass is a more durable material that provides better structural integrity and heat resistance than plastic. Using a brass plate helps maintain precise alignment for more consistent grind quality over time.
You should consider a replacement if you notice visible wear, warping, or if the plate no longer holds the burrs securely in place. If your grind consistency has dropped significantly despite clean burrs, the plate may be the culprit.
No, this part is engineered specifically for the Gaggia MDF. It will not fit or function correctly in other coffee grinders.
