CoffeeGeek - Show Me The Money! in Espresso Machines (#)
„In my business Coffee for Connoisseurs (website ), I sell 4 domestic espresso machines: the Imat Junior, the Imat Napoletana, the Rancilio Silvia and the Solis SL90. Because I'm an "Internet Only" coffee retailer, I tend to regard machines as interesting devices for consuming coffee, rather than big ticket items with big markups. My profits on any machine sale might pay for a weeks' petrol...just.“

„A true benchmark machine, this machine made Rancilio a lot of money in the past four years - it has become the standard against which all other consumer, single boiler machines are measured against.“

„What it lacks, like all home machines under $1300 or so, is separate steam boiler tank. You basically need to spend another $900 to take the next step up from the Silvia in home espresso machines, to light-commercial machines like the Pasquini Livia, Isomac, Wega, Exobar, La Marzocco, etc. So I hate to say it, but $500 for the Miss Silvia is a good deal! You can start doing decent home espresso with the Gaggia Espresso at $259, but it doesn't have this great stainless steel housing, and the level of finish of the Silvia.“

Gaggia Topazio - Espresso for the budget minded - coffeecrew.com - victoria, b.c. canada
„A smaller boiler means that it is quick to heat up. With the larger Rancilio Silvia, on the kitchen counter, it usually takes about 20 minutes before the beast is ready to start extracting rich shots of espresso. The Topazio is ready to roll in 10 minutes.“
