AT A GLANCE
Professional quality espresso coffee brewing
Brew excellent espresso thanks to the use of commercial style components, excellent thermal stability, and proper non-pressurised coffee baskets just like you would find on a commercial coffee machine.
Powerful steam
300mL insulated boiler with 1100W heating power delivers strong steam power - superior to many other single boiler espresso machines.
Commercial steam arm
Steam is delivered through a steam arm with articulating ball joint connection allowing you to position the arm as required.
Single hole steam outlet
Single hole steam outlet designed to complement the 300mL boiler size - allows the skilled home barista to create superb steamed milk for your favorite cappuccino, latte, and flat white.
Single boiler function - brew coffee or steam milk
Single boiler means the machine has one single boiler which delivers hot water for brewing espresso coffee or steam for frothing milk. You make your espresso and then switch the machine into steam mode - steam is ready in less than 90 seconds.
Fast to heat
Heats from cold to ready for making coffee in around 10 minutes. In fact, the boiler will come up to temperature much sooner, but you have to wait for the filter-holder to be nice and hot to ensure you make really great espresso. Heating from coffee mode into steam mode takes less than 90 seconds.
2L water tank
2L water tank allows plenty of coffee making action between refills.
Professional style - compact size
Smart modern design, clean lines, and solid metal construction - SILVIA will look fantastic in your kitchen. Compact size delivers great espresso while being easy to find space for.
Durable stainless construction + excellent build quality
Metal bodywork is easy to care for and durable - providing for a long lasting machine that continues to look great. High quality fit and finish, durable materials, and high quality construction help to ensure this coffee machine will continue to look great and function well for many years.
Built by people who understand espresso
Hand assembled in Italy the home of espresso. RANCILIO has been in the business of making outstanding espresso machines since 1927.
Well proven design
SILVIA has been around since 1997 with a well earned reputation for consistently great espresso in homes worldwide.
SUITABILITY
Home espresso coffee making
SILVIA is designed for home espresso coffee making where 1-2 coffees would be made at a time. For users wanting to make more than 2 coffees at a time or cafe style speed then we would recommend a Heat-Exchanger or Double Boiler Espresso Machine.
CRAFT BEAUTIFUL ESPRESSO
RANCILIO commercial style brewing group
Brew espresso using a commercial size 58mm brewing system - the same size you would find on a commercial espresso machine at your local cafe.
Excellent thermal stability - brass brew system
Boiler, brewing group, and coffee filter holder are constructed from brass to maximise heat retention and thermal stability during the brewing process. This thermal stability is what ensures your espresso is extracted at just the right temperature to maximise flavour and consistency.
Solid brass boiler + Insulation
Brewing water is delivered from a 300mL boiler heated by a 1100W heating element. Boiler is constructed from brass and wrapped in a insulating sleeve to maximise thermal stability and ensure brew water is delivered at just the right temperature.
Commercial filter holder
Full size heavy duty chromed brass commercial filter holder allows you to extract espresso just like the professionals. RANCILIO SILVIA features the latest RANCILIO commercial filter holder with double outlet to suit both single and double espresso brewing.
Commercial coffee filter baskets - 2 Cup and 1 Cup
Included are both 2 Cup and 1 Cup commercial coffee filter baskets suited for freshly ground coffee. Freshly ground coffee achieves the best quality espresso where the grind consistency, dose, and compression are optimised for perfect espresso.
3-Way brewing control valve
3-Way brew control solenoid valve is a commercial feature that not only directs the flow of water from the boiler to the brew group, but also relieves the water pressure from the ground coffee once brewing is complete. The valve relieves brewing pressure from the filter-holder allowing you to remove the filter-holder immediately after brewing is complete - ready to make another espresso.
Over Pressure Valve
Factory calibrated Over Pressure Valve ensures the optimum extraction pressure is achieved for a smooth creamy espresso. Over-pressure valve regulates the pump pressure by returning excess pressure back to the water tank. Over-pressure valves help to prevent over-extraction of your espresso.
Manual Pre-Infusion
You can pre-infuse the coffee by activating the pump switch for 1-2 seconds, then letting the coffee rest for a few seconds, before beginning to extract your espresso. This process delivers a small amount of water into the coffee before the full extraction pressure is applied. Pre-infusion is not necessary for great espresso - however some baristas believe that it improves espresso extraction.
Powerful vibration pump
High quality vibration pump delivers pressurised water to the brewing system. Brew pressure is regulated by the Over Pressure Valve.
STEAM MILK LIKE THE PROFESSIONALS
Powerful steam for professional quality milk
Solid brass boiler delivers a nice powerful supply of steam. SILVIA has the capacity to deliver steam for a number of coffees before you should refill the boiler. Proper brass boiler combined with a 1100w heating element maintains a powerful steam supply from start to finish - this design gives more powerful and consistent steam compared to comparable single boiler coffee machines.
High quality rotary steam valve
Steam is controlled by a high quality rotary steam valve - rotate anti-clockwise to open the valve and delivery steam - clockwise to stop steam delivery. Steam valve is constructed from metal components for reliability and durability.
Fast heat time
1100w heating power and a relatively small 300mL boiler size means this machine can deliver steam in less than 90 seconds. Once steam mode is engaged purge the steam arm and wait for the the boiler to reach steam temperature - you can now steam your milk. Do not leave the machine in steam mode for more than a few minutes - once your milk is steamed switch steam mode off then purge and clean the steam arm.
Commercial style steam arm with articulating ball-joint for control
Ball-joint steam arm connection allows you three axis of movement making it easy to position your steam arm as required. Position the steam arm to suit your technique and the milk jugs you are using.
Single hole steam outlet optimised for 300mL boiler size
Single hole steam tip is designed to deliver a nice fine stream of super-heated steam. Single hole steam tips are suited to the smaller boiler size found on domestic espresso machines - maintaining a single strong high-pressure jet of steam to assist with creating that desired micro-foam.
GREAT FUNCTION AND EASE OF USE
84mm cup clearance
84mm clearance between the drip tray and the centre of the filter-holder allows you to use two latte glasses at once. The distance between the drip tray and filter-holder outlet is 78mm. Suitable for use with 220/250 mL Duralex cafe latte glasses, 8oz takeaway cups, or 227 mL regular size KeepCup.
Wide cup warmer
A large cup warming surface located on the top of the machine holds up to 6 espresso cups or 2 latte/cappuccino cups and keeps them warm. Cups can remain in place while refilling the water.
Generous 2L water tank
2L water tank is enough for a large number of coffees, so you won't be filling it up every day.
Removable water tank with cover

Industrial switches for ease of use

One main power switch operates machine function - three other switches control espresso brewing, hot water dispensing, and steam mode. High quality thermoplastic switches are solid and reliable giving a nice positive feel.
