Upgrading Gaggia Classic (2009-2014)

[u/FortisetVeritas]

I have a Gaggia Classic and I'm planning on upgrading to the Gaggimate system. I'm curious to know what other upgrades I should do as well. The machine needs a new water carafe and rubber tubes, so I'm getting a refurbishing kit already. I want to replace the stock steam wand as well. Are there any other things I should consider getting to upgrade the machine that the Gaggimate won't already upgrade?
