Rancilio Silvia Espresso Machine

High quality basic machine, a bit expensive

The Rancilio Silvia is everything I had expected. Built well and makes good espresso, with strong steaming. It doesn’t have features like P&ID temperature stability or adjustability, and is expensive for what it is. Why did I buy it? It is a strong basic machine that could be easily modded with a Gaggimate or Gaguino, if I someday desire more.

Hopefully the last coffee maker I buy

My first Rancilio lasted 25 years . It's a great espresso machine and I hope this will be the last one I buy.

Loving my new machine so far - I'm a newbie so working on the learning curve currently.
