Got my kit yesterday and I'll install over the weekend. Thanks for the upload.

Thanks for sharing your experience with this, it's very helpful to know in advance what to expect. I have noticed some signs of rust underneath the lid of your machine and that concerns me having just received my Rancilio V6.

Do you still recommend the Silvia even if I don’t upgrade to the pid for a while?

How’s it going with the PID i got mine long ago and would never have a Silvia without pid After getting the pid, it becomes apparent the wide temperature swings due to a small boiler that cools rapidly when brew is switched on There are arcane ways to compensate for this…. But only if you know what the temp in your boiler is via PID SEPARATELY, I have stopped tamping and only use an inexpensive distribution tool I find les problems with channeling…

Greetings! And thank you for the video on installing Auber PID in a Silvia. I’ve used a version 1 Silvia daily for 17 years and love my machine. I’m now in the planning stages to add PID to my Silvia and would appreciate your opinion. I’m not that interested in pre-infusion but willing to purchase the kit with pre-infusion for the benefit of the steam control. Do you find that controlling the steam with PID is beneficial? Also, can the pre-infusion be turned off (disabled) or set to 0 seconds to circumvent it’s use? Thanks for your consideration!

Well done!

Can you make a video with review on this PID and describe which pros you get?

Agree with Navy Chief B, get rid of the very annoying background music which makes it difficult to understand what you are saying.

Hi - I like your videos generally but have to say (as others have) that the audio mix with your voice so low, relative to the music, makes this one too hard for me to watch. Any chance you could re-release it with no music?

Which version Silvia do you have?

please redo the video without the ridiculous music

pure junk
