Ample steam for milk frothing is delivered through a chrome plated steam wand. The Silvia will bring enough milk for an average sized latte up to temperature in about one and a half minutes.

The Rancilio Silvia is equipped with a 67 oz. water reservoir which can be filled either at the faucet or while operating the machine.
The machine has an easily removable stainless-steel drip pan and cup tray for easy cleaning. There is a cup warming surface on top of the machine which will maintain the espresso at the correct temperature while being poured.
