I realize this is a long shot as most foreigners probably wouldn't invest in such a high end espresso machine in a foreign country, but if you did and you want to sell it I am interested. I would also like to buy a Rocky Doserless grinder if you have that as well and a Coffee Roaster too. Online they are selling for an arm and a leg so I am looking for a used machine. Send me a message if you have one for sale.

Thanks,

Did you PM the member that was selling EXACTLY those two products recently? A quick search should help.

I'm running a Baratza Encore with a Delonghi EC 155. I got both in Korea (no transformers!) for less than 10% more than they go for in the States, and with the warranties Korean folks demand, which is nice.

If you're not able to find the higher end Rancilio gear, my setup was less than 300,000 total, and after depressurizing the basket/filter, you can pull some pretty nice shots (you can pull pretty good ones with the pressurizing setup in place, too, of course)!

Not to mention that a Silvia without PID is not much better than an entry level Delonghi.
A beautiful piece of machinery though and I have had my eyes on it for years but I’ll wait until I move back home.

I was just going to temperature surf.

I already tried pming the guy to no avail.

I already have a cheap set up that makes serviceable shots.

I may just wait till I get back to the US to buy something more high end. Thanks for your help.
