The new Rancilio Silvia V3 (2009 Edition) has set a new standard for coffee machines. Silvia V3 semi-automatic espresso machine is an upgraded version of the Rancilio Silvia V2, including commercial grade steam wand, redesigned steam knob and portafilter handle with classic look. The Rancilio Silvia V3 features a heavy duty brass boiler (capacity 12 oz), chrome plated portafilter and two commercial sized 58 mm filter baskets.

The Rancilio Silvia V3 comes with a 7 gram coffee scoop, a plastic tamper and a detailed instruction manual.

Features

Construction
The exterior of the machine, drip pan and cup tray are made of durable, top quality brushed stainless steel. The frame that supports the unit is made of heavy iron. The machine stands 13.25"H x 11.25"W x 9.25"D and weighs 30 pounds.

Easy Controls
The main power switch is located at the center and the brew switch is at the top left that activates the pump. Turn on the middle button on the left to dispense hot water. A switch at the bottom left activates the steam function. When it is turned on the boiler starts heating up to steam temperature. Then turn the steam/water knob located on the side of the machine and start frothing.

Brew Group
Made of chrome plated marine brass, the commercial grade brew group ensures even heat and water distribution and provides a superior brewing environment resulting in highly consistent espresso extraction.

Commercial-Grade Portafilter and Filter Baskets
The Rancilio Silvia V3 uses a heavy-duty portafilter, which features a newly designed grip handle. The chrome plated brass portafilter keeps the temperature stable throughout the entire brewing process, thereby producing a great shot of espresso. The Silvia V3 also comes with two commercial sized filter baskets (a single and double shot version) which both measure 58mm in diameter.

Brass Boiler and 3 Thermostats
The Rancilio Silvia's boiler (12 oz.) is made of marine grade brass. It provides best steaming powers and quicker recycling times when brewing multiple espressos. The brass construction resists scale build up and pitting for long lasting durability. Three thermostats are built into the machine. One monitors the temperature for espresso, the other controls the temperature for steam and the third monitors the boiler to protect it from overheating.

3 Way Solenoid Valve
The three-way solenoid valve is a commercial feature that relieves the water pressure off the coffee when the brew switch is turned off. The valve dries out the used ground coffee in the portafilter immediately after the brewing is finished. So you can straight away remove the handle, easily knock the dried coffee out and reset of the machine for another shot.

Upgraded Milk Frothing
Another striking feature of the Rancilio Silvia V3 is its commercial grade stainless steel steam wand and newly engineered single hole milk frothing tip that helps you create café-style drinks. Opening and closing the steam tap is a breeze with its redesigned steam knob.

Hot Water Dispenser
If you want hot water for tea, hot chocolate, Americanos or soup, simply turn on the brew switch and open the steam knob. Hot water will begin to stream out.

Water Reservoir
The water reservoir (67 oz. capacity) is removable for easy cleaning. You can fill it while the machine is operating or remove it for filling at the sink.

Drip Pan and Cup Tray
The drip pan and cup tray, both made of stainless steel are removable for easy cleaning. A cup-warming surface located on the top of the machine keeps your espresso cups warm that is a prerequisite of perfect espresso.

Baratza Vario Grinder

Programmable digital controls with LCD display
The programmable digital controls allow you to select the duration of grind time and the style of coffee- espresso, filter, or coffee press, giving you full control to create your ideal shot of espresso.

Dual-cam grind adjustment
The Baratza Vario Burr Grinder features dual-cam grind adjustment with 230 settings. The right hand lever lets you select the type of grind you’d like and the left hand lever lets you fine-tune even further for a perfect grind.

54mm ceramic flat burrs
The Baratza Vario Burr Grinder features Mahlkönig 54mm ceramic flat burrs, which keep the coffee cool (thereby retaining the coffee's natural flavor) by limiting the amount of heat transferred from the burrs to the grinds. The Mahlkönig 54mm ceramic flat burrs are harder than carbon steel burrs and stay sharper for a long period of time.

Grind-on-Demand
With Vario's Grind-on-Demand feature, you grind only the amount of coffee you need. This Electronic Dosing eliminates stale coffee grinds common in mechanical dosing units.

Super quiet operation using belt drive
Powerful DC motor turns slowly resulting in cool, quiet operation and permits extended grinding time. The circuitry is equipped with an automatic reset thermal switch.

Hands-free portafilter
The portaholder's universally adjustable brackets allow for hands-free operation and can be used with any portafilter.

8oz Bean Hopper
The Baratza Vario Burr Grinder includes bean hopper with a capacity of 8 ounces.
