Features and Benefits
This single-boiler espresso machine has 4 simple rocker switches. The power switch is in the middle of the housing with two status lights: one letting you know that the machine has power, and another that tells you when the machine has reached brew temperature and steam temperature alike. The brew switch is simple: Turn it on to run the pump and brew your espresso, then turn it off to stop the pump when you’ve finished pulling your shot. A hot water button will send water through the steam wand; a convenient and space-saving double use of the wand. Finally, the steam switch will heat the boiler up to steaming temperature, and the indicator light on the power switch will tell you when the Silvia’s boiler is hot enough to produce steam.
Several items top off the commercial-quality build. The adjustable expansion valve allows you to change brewing pressure, while a 3-way solenoid relieves pressure from the group after brewing. The included tamper fits perfectly into the commercial-sized 58 mm portafilter, allowing you to prepare espresso like a professional barista. A cup warming tray on top of the machine helps you make sure your espresso isn’t shocked by a cold cup.
When steaming your milk, get the perfect angle with the multidirectional, articulating steam wand. Speaking of milk steaming, the Rancilio Silvia can deliver excellent steam power for a single-boiler; one of its most impressive attributes.
