Default re-wiring Gaggia Coffee Espresso?

euro 220 volt plugs don't work in the US.

euro SOCKETS are difficult to obtain.

Then an adapter to fit US 240 volt plug (typically a clothes dryer --
or less likely, an air conditioner) to a euro 220 volt SOCKET would
have to be made. -- (after finding and buying one)

OR -- other more dangerous methods could be explored.

methinks the OP is / has lost interest in the whole thing.

And BTW, 'homer'

a NEW gaggia of this type is about USD 450.00 max, let alone an
unknown UNwarranteed USED one.
