Rancilio Silvia Espresso Machine

This single boiler workhorse stands out at its pricepoint with sturdy steel casing, burly brass components and all-manual operation. The Silvia also manages must-have functionality like a 3-way solenoid, a standard 58mm portafilter, and easy access internals for maintenance and repair. The Siliva’s focus on long-lasting service is just one reason it has remained largely unchanged in its decades-long run.
