Hi guys, I've got an original (5 years old) Rancilio Silvia and Rocky Grinder combination and would like to have the Silvia serviced as I think the seal is going under the group head. (water comes out of the side when pouring a coffee. Are there any places in Pennsylvania or closer to Malvern, Wayne, Devon area in PA that service these machines? Thanks

Ralph

You likely only need a group head gasket.

Thanks for the quick reply Scott.. so would you recommend "DYI" or take it to a service center?

I would recommend doing it your self. If you bought it used and it way in meh condition, that's when I'd take it to a service station. Since your the original, assuming you have taken good care of it you probably only need to replace some gaskets, maybe descaling would be a good idea too. I'm sure you can find some good, detailed guides online if you do not have experience disassembling the machine. (That is disassemble it as much as you have to to replace group gaskets)

Yup,machine is in great condition... very well looked after. Sounds like the gasket replacement will resolve it. Thanks!
