Grinders listed for 58 mm portafilters
The Gaggia Classic UP has no built-in grinder. Our records list these 13 grinders as working with 58 mm portafilters. Some hold the portafilter while you grind. Others grind into a dosing cup that you pour from. Check how each one doses with the maker, and check the fit against the exact shape of your handle. The setup estimate adds this machine, the grinder, and $90 for basic setup items from our dated price checks. It is not a current quote.
