Rancilio Silvia E V6 Home Espresso Machine - Inox / Stainless Steel

After a lot of research I decided to get the Silvia for my espresso needs. I have never had an espresso machine before so I am as much as a beginner as they come :)

Miss Silvia was packaged very nicely and very secure. The team at Clumsy Goat were so great too! Replied to my email within a few minutes and were very helpful and friendly. The machine arrived very quickly too.

I am using the Baratza Encore ESP Pro to grind the coffee and I am able to pull really good espressos. Takes a bit of playing around and I obviously don't have the pallet necessary to distinguish very subtle changes in the shots I am pulling but I am very satisfied with the taste, not bitter not sour, very pleasant to drink straight.

I am not a milky coffee person but I have made a few attempt at making a latte. The steam pressure is crazy and I do struggle with putting the milk jug in and out, the space under the wand is a bit tight for me so I will look at getting a knock drawer to put under the machine to elevate it a bit. But with all that I think I made a successful milky coffee the third time I tried it haha.

I will look at a PID in the future, but for now the machine came with everything you need to pull a shot. The portafiller and tamper seem to be really good quality, might upgrade to a naked portafiller in the future as well . The machine itself is of course very qualitative and with proper care it should last for a very long time.

I am very happy with it and I look forward to using it every single day. I do recommend it to anyone looking to get an espresso machine but they're not looking at a plug and play type of experience. If you're willing to learn and increase your knowledge and experience with different coffees and grind size etc this is a good, realiable machine.

I had an excellent experience with Clumsy Goat. The price was good, ordering was straightforward. The product was delivered on time with no damage to the packaging. The Silvia works perfectly. Coffee is excellent. I use a Sage smart grinder pro. I previously had a Gaggia Tebe III (similar to Classic). The coffee is as good if not better. The build quality and materials used make for a quality feel, much more so than the Tebe. I would happily recommend Clumsy Goat Coffee and the Rancilio Silvia.

First step on my coffee hobby journey - love it so far although we are still making friends!
Service and delivery from Clumsy Goat was speedy and efficient - would definitely purchase from them again!! The machine is on a cloth so I can easily slide it in and out from underneath the cabinets not because it leaks 😁

As many reviews have commented there is decent amount of power from the steam wand. It’ll take a couple of attempts to get to grips with but it’s not too difficult. The machine is a joy to use and the coffee you can produce is on par with anything available in a commercial establishment. I would recommend upgrading to an 18 gram basket as the stock basket will only hold about 16 grams. For consistency I also use a self levelling and spring calibrated tamp rather than the one supplied with the machine.

I'm still struggling with this machine, particularly the milk steaming. I love the size and the simplicity and it easy to clean thoroughly.

Can’t fault the machine - pretty easy to use once you have got used to it. Would recommend a good clean through after every use - there are plenty of guides on YouTube to help. Only negative would be its a little noisy but it doest bother me too much.

Great machine, great price, great customer service

Great machine, solid build, extras are high quality too

I highly recommend lumpy Goat Coffee. They have excellent communication skills and kept me informed about my delivery by email every step of the way. Delivery was prompt. The coffee machine I ordered was very well packaged and protected during the delivery process and arrived at the time and date I was given. I will not hesitant to buy from Clumsy Goat Coffee again.
Thank you for your excellent service.

Solid bit of kit and makes good espresso once you are used to it, delivery was a bit slow (a week) especially when you consider I'm in the same postcode! 🤣

This replaces a previous model of the Sylvia which I found reliable.

Great coffee machine. Makes excellent coffee everytime.

Love the machine which I picked up at a great price in the boxing day sale, delivered on time. A small problem with a missing rubber foot which I later found in the frame of the machine, but Clumsy Goat sorted out a replacement straight away.
As a first 'proper' coffee machine I'm getting to grips with it and the steam power has meant quite a few milk spills and heavy froth, but getting better. Would recommend a 500ml milk pitcher over 350ml to get started for anyone else new to this.

....and challenged in equal measure!
I have much to learn.
Great support from this online shop.
Thank you

This machine & I are not getting on so far. I’m trying so hard to be consistent, but nothing works & I’m only getting the odd good coffee/steamed milk. Hopefully my persistence will one day pay off & I’ll enjoy making coffee again.

Ordered and delivered in a few days. The Rancilio Silvia is a fantastic machine that matches the performance of those 4 times the price.

This is a good quality robust coffee machine which I would recommend. Not the best looking but produces a good result and is well made.

My husband loves his new Rancilio coffee machine - good value for a very good quality machine delivered very promptly by clumsy goat

Very happy with the product and service from Clumsy Goat Coffee. Would highly recommend.

Extremely solid and well made coffee machine.
QUALITY

I am so very pleased with my new Rancilio Silva V6.
The crema is s consistent and the steam wand is fantastic.
Milk frothing is perfect, sadly I can't say the same for my milk art

Had the Rancilio for several weeks now and I’m really pleased with the quality of the machine and the espressos it makes. Took quite a bit of time to get the pour to be as I like it, adjusted the fineness of the grind and the pressure I used to tamp the coffee….the game changer for me was the purchase of the Motta coffee distributor……I was genuinely surprised at the difference it made 😊👊🏻
