Coffee geeks and professional baristas, fall in love all over again with Silvia! The new Rancilio Silvia Pro is a 1-group professional espresso machine designed for even more advanced precision and control. This redesigned model is the same iconic Silvia you love but now with a whole slew of added features that will impress both expert baristas and newcomers alike.
The machine looks very robust. It's a much larger footprint than the original Silvia especially the Depth to accommodate the Dual Boiler. The PID and build, in general, is solid, like you would expect from Rancilio. Small finishing touches or the steam handle could be more refined but a dual boiler at this price point offers great value.
Double Boiler:For the first time, the Rancilio Silvia is equipped with two boilers; one to heat water for brewing coffee, and another for hot water and steam.
Dual PID:The Rancilio Silvia Pro gives you fine control over water temperature in both boilers via internal PID, offering precise temperature stability and simple adjustment.
Thermal Stability:The Silvia Pro’s impressive thermal stability puts it in the top class of commercial espresso machines, offering extremely precise temperature delivery for espresso.
Powerful Steam:Steam like a Pro with high powered steam delivery: cappuccino, macchiato, and all espresso-based milk beverages can be made with ease with luscious foam and creamy steamed milk.
Digital Display:The display presents temperature levels, a shot timer a water level alert and a “wake up” function that can switch on the machine at a pre-set time.
Equipment: High-quality professional build with heavy-duty components: ergonomic portafilter, insulated boilers, multi-directional stainless-steel steam wand, cup tray, and dedicated coffee boiler.
Easy-Cleaning Solutions:Stainless steel drip tray, cup tray, built-in 2-litre water reservoir. All easy to remove for cleaning.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX
Rancilio Silvia Pro
HOW TO USE
How to setup:
Plug in your coffee machine and add filtered water in the detachable reservoir tank at the back.
Press the switch on button, the display will show you the temperature of the boiler water, wait till it gets to 90 degree and then its ready to brew.
How to make Espresso, Americano & Milk beverages:
The base for good coffee beverages is espresso, once that is dialled in you make now make all kinds of coffee with your espresso machine.
For Espresso:
Starting with a Brew Ratio of 16g of ground coffee to 32-38g of extraction in 18-24 seconds, pull a shot of Espresso.
If the shot is finishing too quickly, adjust the grinder to a finer grind size. If the shot is taking too long to finish, adjust the grinder to a coarser grind size. Pull the shot following the same parameters. Taste the Espresso shot.
If the Espresso shot tastes under extracted, i.e., overpowering acidity (sourness) and astringency, the grind size is too coarse and the flow rate is high. Adjust the grinder to a finer grind size and pull an Espresso shot. Taste the shot.
If the Espresso shot tastes over extracted, i.e., ashy, smoky flavour that goes hand in hand with a lack of any lingering finish of the espresso in the mouth, the grind size is too fine and flow rate is slow. Adjust the grinder to a coarser setting and pull an Espresso Shot. Taste the shot.
If there is a balance between the acidity, sweetness, bitterness and complexity, your Espresso is dialled in and you can continue to use these parameters.
For Americano:
Take a mug and place it under the hot water dispenser of your coffee machine.
Press the hot water button and fill your mug upto 3/4th capacity and press the button again to shut the water off.
Once water is dispensed, pull an espresso shot on top of the hot water. Your hot Americano is now ready
For Lattes and Cappuccinos:
Take chilled milk in a milk steaming pitcher.
Pull an espresso shot into your mug.
Purge the steam wand. Insert the wand into the milk pitcher at the correct angle and begin steaming the milk. The desired texture should be silky with tiny micro bubbles formed uniformly throughout.
Clean the steam wand using a damp sponge. Purge the wand once more.
Tap the pitcher on the counter to settle the microbubbles and give it a swirl.
Pour the steamed milk into the pulled espresso shot creating the desired latte art.
For Iced Coffee:
In a glass, add a few cubes of ice. Pour in cold milk, and add a shot of espresso on top to make a layered iced coffee.
You can add flavours like hazelnut, caramel, chocolate etc. to make a flavoured iced coffee.
For Teas:
Take a mug and place it under the hot water dispenser, press the hot water button and fill your mug upto 3/4th capacity and press the button again to shut the water off.
Immerse your tea bag in the mug and set the timer and let it brew for 3-5minutes. Fill the rest with hot water.
How to clean your Rancillio Silvia Pro Espresso Machine:
On a daily basis it’s important to wipe down the porta filter, group head and steam wand of your coffee machine.
For deep cleaning of your coffee machine (at least once in two weeks) the group head and milk steaming wand should be cleaned using appropriate coffee machine cleaning chemicals.
Back flushing the Espresso Machine is best done when the machine is hot.
Remove the group head disc with the help of a flathead screwdriver.
Using the group head brush, clean the screen thoroughly to remove any coffee grounds.
Place the blind disc in your porta filter and add one cafiza tablet to it. Load it to the group head.
Press manual brew button and let it run full cycle, repeat this process three times.
After this, remove the porta filter and run water through the group head to rinse, then reload the rinsed porta filter into the group head and repeat the process 3 times without any chemical.
Empty out the drain tray and rinse it under running water along with the group head filter disc and screw.
For the steam wand, add a cap of rinza liquid to half a pitcher of room temperature water and start the steam wand till the water warms up.
Remember to dispose an espresso shot the next time you brew as it might have some chemical residue.
