Rancilio Silvia and Rocky Doser Essentials Pack
Rancilio Silvia and Rocky Doser Essentials Pack

After nearly a decade with my Starbucks Barista machine (which finally bit the dust) I finally upgraded to Miss Silvia. After doing much research and watching the how to videos of many machines, I decided that the Rancilio Silvia was the right fit. I wanted a semi automatic and I wanted...

TechMilanoItalia The Silvia does include a very basic plastic tamper, but we would suggest upgrading to a metal tamper (even the basic Rattleware version for about $20 - found here: http://www.wholelattelove.com/Rattleware/RW_Aluminum_Tamper.cfm ) to reach the recommended 30lbs. of tamp pressure.

What is the advantage of a grinder with a doser? Will it allow me to choose the "dose size" or am I locked into what it provides as a "dose?" Will it allow me to adjust the size of the dose (of course within the limits of the size that can be accomodated by the machine)?

The doser will measure grinds out at 7 grams at a time. This is enough for one espresso shot. This is a fixed number you can not adjust the amount in each dose. However, I don't really use the doser for "measuring", I pull the doser handle until I have enough coffee to fill the basket just below the top. I scrape off any excess back into the doser for the next shot. The Non-doser version of the Rancilio Rocky is a popular seller that just directs the ground coffee into the filter basket.
