Just received my Pasquini Livietta T2 and Rancilio Rocky grinder. What a nice setup. After my first drink with this new setup, I had no trouble retiring my La Pavoni Europiccola to a shelf in the garage.

I need help in deciding what machine I should go with. The Pasquini Livietta T2, or the Rancilio Silvia v3. I currently have a La Pavoni europiccola for 12 years now, that I use every single day to make hot and cold mocha's, or just an espresso shot to drink. I am wanting something a little easier to use, with plenty of steam and is somewhat forgiving on pulling a shot. Both machines look great and the price is comparable to each other. Which one would be the right one?

MegabyteCoffee Thank you Mark for the info. I did purchase the Livietta T2 and a Rancilio Rocky grinder, and now after 2 months, I could not be happier! My shots are great, and the steaming is instant and plentiful with this machine's dual thermal blocks. I don't think there could be a better machine in this price range. Very satisfied!
I mainly make latte's and mocha's. My Pavoni pump is on it's way out, and I'm looking for a machine that will make hot mocha's easily. Is this a good machine for that use? Can it steam milk easily?

mjackson ♦ Chris,
It is a good machine and certainly had a great look to it. It does for the price have a very good boiler size. It is 24 ounces and does have a good amount of steam power. It also comes with pressurized and non pressurized portafilter capability. I think it is a good value and a fun machine to use.
mjackson ♦ Chris,
I like the Livietta for the convenience. As you can brew and steam at the same time. I really like the Rancilio as far as quality and the ability to brew a good shot. It does take time between brewing and steaming. You do need a good grinder. I think you need to make sure you have an adequate grinder such as the Rancilio Rocky or the Baratza Preciso. The Livietta will be hard to beat at that price.
