Got a used Rancilio Silvia Pro X for $800. What a difference from my Bambino!

    Machine was basically new. Out of an abundance of caution I descaled it, cleaned the steam boiler, replaced the silicone tubes, gasket and shower screen.
    It’s good as new now 😃

    This thing is a beast! Temperature stability is very very impressive especially coming from a Bambino.
    Can’t wait to not be able to sleep tonight from the 7 or 8 shots I’ve made LOL

    Do you make milk drinks? I got one of these and I’m struggling to get good texture on my milk due to the high steam power. Wondering if you’re having any success and if you have any tips

    I have the older version of this one and it is an excellent machine. Yours has PID control which takes it to another level.

    a real boiler and PID will do that to a person. Welcome to next stage, See you next year when you have the itch.

    How long does it take for it to heat up to use? I’m curious as a bambino plus user..

    Welcome to the Pro X family. How did you descale since everything I read warns against doing it yourself and says it should be done by a professional. I use BWT pouch and for a while third wave water.

    I just replaced the silicone after some moldy tubing that couldn’t be seen but smelled.
