lattes, cappuccinos and more, just with the touch of a button. It's beautiful to
behold and simple to use. You'll be making your favorite espresso to the raves
of family and friends. This is a quality machine at a terrific price. Simple to
Use Controls Push the large central power button and an orange light comes on
and stays on until the Silvia is at operating temperature for espresso, steam or
hot water. Three more professional grade rocker switches now let you chose which
one of those options you want. Top is for espresso, the middle for hot water and
the bottom one is for steam. Flip the espresso button and that rich, hot liquid
will start to flow. Switch it off when you have the amount you want. For hot
water, simply flip the middle switch; open the steam valve knob and hot water
gushes from the steam wand. For lattes and cappuccinos, flip the bottom steam
button. When the orange light goes off, open the steam valve and start frothing
milk. Milk Frothing and Hot Water The Rancilio Silvia features a straightforward
chrome plated steam wand that delivers plenty of ready steam for milk foam. In
1.5 minutes the Silvia will have enough milk to make the average sized latte up
to temperature. Simply put, the Silvia out performs almost every espresso
machine under $500 in the steaming and frothing race! The steam wand also
doubles as the outlet for hot water. Simply press the hot water button and hot
water will be dispensed for making beverages such as the popular Americano or
tea. |
