The Silvia was designed to be opened. It has been in production largely unchanged for more than two decades, which means gaskets, group seals and steam valves are stocked by every espresso parts supplier in the country — and there is a repair guide for almost anything that can go wrong with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single brass boiler heats water for brewing, then reheats for steam, so you do one at a time rather than both at once. The group head is saturated: brass in constant contact with boiler water, which is what keeps the temperature steady from the first shot to the fourth. Water comes from a 2-litre reservoir you fill by hand, and a vibratory pump does the pressing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoiler:\u003c\/strong\u003e single boiler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroup head:\u003c\/strong\u003e saturated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePump:\u003c\/strong\u003e vibratory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePortafilter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 58mm, commercial standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater supply:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-litre reservoir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e semi-automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShipping weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 37 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it suits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA good fit if you want to learn espresso properly and keep the machine a long time, you would rather spend on build than on a screen, and you are happy waiting about half a minute between pulling a shot and steaming milk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsider another machine if you make several milk drinks back to back every morning — a single boiler makes you wait between the two — or you want temperature set to the degree, which the Silvia does not offer without a PID added.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShipping and returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFree standard shipping is available with no minimum order to the \u003cstrong\u003e48 contiguous United States and Washington, DC, and Canada\u003c\/strong\u003e.
