DESCRIPTION
Rancilio Silvia Pro X is the new single group espresso machine equipped with digital display, dual boilers, two PID controllers and soft infusion technology.
FEATURES
Dual Boiler Technology. Two independent boilers, both equipped with a PID system. One boiler is dedicated to the preparation of coffee, the other to the delivery of hot water and steam.
PID. Electronic control over water temperature in coffee boiler and steam boiler, via internal PID offering extremely precise temperature stability.
Temperature Regulation. The temperature of water for coffee and steam can be adjusted easily via the display buttons.
Pressure Gauge. The professional pressure gauge indicates the pressure of the coffee boiler in real time.
Soft pre-infusion. By activating the soft pre-infusion function, water at reduced pressure from the coffee boiler is gently distributed to the coffee panel. This function, with adjustable duration from 0 to 6 seconds, allows the coffee panel to be prepared in the best possible way and promotes a smooth and efficient extraction, i.e. capable of preserving and enhancing the sensory characteristics of each type of blend or single-origin coffee.
Purge Function. The group is automatically rinsed when the filter holder is removed.

Tom –
I made the jump to this machine from the sage barista express as I wanted more control over my espresso and I can safely say it does the job very well. The steam wand has incredible power steaming 250ml of fridge temp milk in around 15 seconds! and because it’s a dual boiler I can do all of it at the same time as pulling my shot. Whatever temp you decide to keep your brew boiler at it does an excellent job of keeping it very steady at the chosen temp with a fluctuation of only half a degree and if you want to pull multiple shots back to back this is fantastic. So if you in the market for a dual boiler machine you need to consider this one for sure. It may not be as good looking at some of the other machines in its class like the Rocket but personally I like the boxy industrial look over the polished chrome. The only minor criticism I have is the drip tray! The decision to put a lip at the front meaning you have to lift the tray over it to get it out is very confusing to me especially if it’s full. But if you just remember to empty it every few days so it doesn’t get really full it really isn’t much of an issue.
