Heavy Duty Pump System 
The Silvia uses an Electromagnetic vibratory pump that provides the exact pressures needed to deliver perfect espresso. Rancilio use commercial grade items from the pump to the boiler, and from the boiler to the grouphead.

Ergonomic Switches
Commercial-grade rocker switches with integrated indicator lights are featured on the Rancilio Silvia. The main power switch is located in the centre on the face of the machine. When the Silvia is first turned on, the orange light adjacent to the switch will illuminate. The light will remain illuminated until the machine is at operating temperature for brewing espresso, or the dispensing of hot water. On the left side of the control panel are the controls for brewing espresso (top), dispensing hot water (middle), and steam activation (bottom).

Steaming with Rancilio 'Miss Silvia'
The Rancilio Silvia has a brass steam wand that pushes out ample amounts of steam. This newly designed thicker 2009 steam wand features a 1 hole chrome plated tip that can now swival around (instead of side to side) allowing a greater range of motion. In under 35 seconds the Silvia is capable of getting 200ml of milk up to proper temperatures. 

Other features of the Rancilio Silvia are:

Brass Parts - this includes a brass boiler, brass lines, and a chromed brass grouphead. The large brass boiler can hold up to an amazing 300ml, making it ideal for the domestic coffee marketplace.

Removable Water Reservoir - the Silvia has a 2 litre capacity removable water reservoir.  For ease of use, it can be removed for filling or topped up whilst the machine is running.

Commercial Grouphead - the main advantage of this tried and true grouphead is that it produces consistent shots for proper extraction. The heavy chrome plated portafilter and filter baskets (size 58mm), are identical to the ones used in the Rancilio commercial line.

Cup Storage  - the stainless steel cup stacking surface, located on top of the Silvia, is heated.  This is essential when making a great espresso!

Removable Drip and Cup Tray - for easy cleaning.

Instant Hot Water - for tea, coffee and other hot beverages.

Pressure Release System - the Silvia has a three-way solenoid valve which works by releasing any built up pressure in the portafilter once an espresso shot has been made. This feature allows the machine to be prepared for making another espresso instantly.

Accessories - Two stainless steel filter baskets for making either single or double shots of espresso, plastic coffee tamper, measuring spoon, an instruction booklet, a user friendly information sheet explaining how to get started and an internet video link showing how to operate your Rancilio Silvia.
