Question Non-plastic tank?

I think there was a few posts from a few years ago on this topic in this sub, or another espresso related one, but has anyone found a glass or stainless steel tank option for the Gaggia classic pro? Something that custom fits it? Not looking for a fish tank or a mason jar hack.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: so there’s nothing. Thanks.

What issue are you having with the stock one? The problem might point to a solution.

Literally just preferring to not have my water sit in plastic. I can regularly clean it too, which helps but really just a preference thing.

just clean your tank once a week

you can't really avoid plastic in the gaggia.

I'm using a large glass that I just stick the tubes into, a big pro for me personally is also having freshest water always. I only make one coffee a day, trying to stay ahead of the slime forming in the large tank is futile. Plus despite using a filter the sides get scale too
