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 it's 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. I'd say the
colour in person was a mediumbrown / hazelnut
tiger flecks. No blond dotting. Tags :RancilioSilviaespressoshotpulltemperaturesurfingcoffeegeekcoffeegeek.comcoffeegrinderintelligentsia
