Question about Rancilio Silvia Espresso Machine

Rancilio silvia I have a rancilio silvia espresso machine and the boiler is not heating up. What can the problem be?

The espresso boiler produces a cool and clear brew; the machine top does not heat at all; the froth boiler works just fine. What to do?

It more likely is the automatic boiler shut off if the boiler overheats. Just reset the boiler.

Youve probably run your boiler dry and blown your thermostat/s. You'll need to have them replaced. You may get away with only having to replace one. It will cost about $80(AUS) to have done or less if you source the parts and do it yourself (not recommended).

How do you reset the thermostats on the rancilio?

Safety thermostat for rancilio silvia is on the boiler and has a red button on top.Press this button down and you should be ok.
Other thermostats cannot be reset - just replaced.

If the boiler temperature exceeds 165 degrees Celsius, this thermostat will trip, cutting power off from the element. This is done to try to prevent element damage due to overheating.

Sounds like your Rancilio needs a service, this problem could be caused by the boiler not working correctly, possibly a leak from the boiler or a valve malfunction causing a drop in pressure.

UPDATE on "No steam from my rancilio silvia. unit about 2 yrs old. i have water delivery..." The unit is NOT heating-hence no steam of course. I see have 2 thermostats on top of boiler-no reset buttons...

If there is not a red pin on the top of the thermostats, then the easiest way to tell which one is bad is with an ohms meter or just replace both.

Rancilio Silvia Espresso water flows too quickly about 7 seconds

check the coffe filter>> it could be teard up and leaking(check it carefuly it is hard to see sometimes)
check the pressure you get from group. 7 - 9 bar pressure you should get to handle. if it is biger than check by pas valve and adjust the pressure, also check up boiler security valve(security valve for water for coffee)
