Key Features

  • PID Temp Control - Digital temperature management offers higher accuracy, to-the-degree temperature control, and quicker recovery when brewing or steaming.
  • Pre-Infusion - The PID controller also adds pre-infusion and wait time to help with espresso preparation.
  • Programmable Shot Time - Set your total shot time in advance for easier shots.
  • Prosumer Components - The open box Silvia's survivor status is built on a steel case, solid brass boiler, and portafilter and group designs from Rancilio's commercial line that all offer excellent service life.
  • Backflushable - An integrated 3-way solenoid valve makes the open box Silvia group easy to clean, and helps to relieve back-pressure from the portafilter for cleaner coffee pucks.

Overview

The Rancilio Silvia is back in black! Dressed to the nines and rigged with a few extra tricks up her sleeve—this exclusive release commemorates the Silvia’s 20th Anniversary since her original debut in 1998, now made even more exclusive through open box pricing. Hooded in matte-black powder coating, this open box Silvia is back with the best and upgrading the rest. The original Rancilio Silvia set the bar high for quality components and usability which has always made the machine popular with home espresso enthusiasts. Its overbuilt design suited our techs perfectly, so they made a couple of small changes!

With the open box version of Rancilio Silvia’s new release comes a PID controller that streamlines temp control and adds easier adjustments through the front-facing LCD screen. Also new to the Silvia is programmable pre-infusion timing for further recipe customization. Users can also program shot times for automatic shot controls. Equipped with more consistent shot temperatures and enough new gadgets to entertain even the most technical enthusiast, the open box Rancilio Silvia PID in Black melds classic and modern espresso beautifully.

Great Upgrade!

It was time to retire the old Rancilio Silvia, and so we decided to upgrade to a black open box with a PID. Love the black finish vs the all stainless; looks very sleek in our kitchen "coffee corner." The PID took a bit to figure out, so we watched a couple SCG videos a couple times to get the hang of it. It has been really fun to "up our game" a bit, understand roast, grind, and dial in the exact shot pull time to get the results we want. Are really enjoying our new machine and it makes a great espresso!

Good machine but not exactly what i ordered

machine works great and seems to be very well built. It took a few days to dial things in with grind size and amount but once i got those things figured out it's very consistent. This unit is far superior to the breville unit that we have at my workplace. I did order a black, open box version and recieved a stainless version instead. ??. I did appreciate the fact the SCG included a secondary manual for the pid operation.

Delicious espresso!

I purchased the Silvia from Seattle Coffee Gear after having a bad experience with another store and a Gaggia classic evo that was having the issue with the boiler. I decided on this machine despite the extra cost as I knew that it would be a reliable machine for years to come, and parts seem to be easy to come by in case of repairs. SCG customer service was quick to respond and super helpful when I had a question, and I was happy to find an open box deal on a machine with the PID already installed. On day 1 I was dialed in and producing delicious espresso!

Can't believe this isn't new

Wow...this was a great purchase! You can't even tell it's not a new unit. Absolutely beautiful and have already enjoyed lots of wonderful coffee from it. Lots of detailed support documents and lots of videos online too to learn how to use it. This is a great way to buy an upgraded unit for a fraction of the cost.
