Rancilio Silvia Shot Walkthrough







Video Info

Description: Video showing how to brew a shot on the Rancilio Silvia, including tips on how to temperature surf the machine by getting the boiler to cycle to its top temperature (about 101C with a float), then running a bit of water to flush out the excess heat. Shots pulled are traditional doubles, pulling 60mls in 28 seconds, using Kid O from Intelligentsia (I called it Black Cat by mistake once in the vid). Dose is about 17g in a Synesso 14g basket. Grinder used is the Anfim Best home grinder, about $420Cdn / $300 US. PS because of the white balance (shot under old florescent lights), the shots look blonder in the vid than they are. Id say the colour in person was a mediumbrown / hazelnut tiger flecks. No blond dotting.
