The Rancilio Silvia is known as the perfect entry-level machine: proven, unmistakable quality meets new, easy-care design made of stainless steel. The high-quality portafilter machine Rancilio Silvia Edelstsahl is particularly energy-saving as it complies with the most modern ecological guidelines. The excellent workmanship and timeless design made of stainless steel make them an eye-catcher in every kitchen. The portafilter machine is very easy to operate. The front has 4 toggle switches, the right one of which is the main switch. After operation, the Rancilio requires around 12 minutes to bring the 0.3 L thermally insulated brass kettle to operating temperature. You can then get your espresso using the first switch on the left side. The two remaining switches are reserved for operating the steam wand. The two remaining switches are used to draw hot water or steam to prepare fine coffee specialties with milk foam. The massive 58 mm portafilter is ergonomically shaped and therefore makes working with the Rancilio Silvia comfortable.
