Used Rancilio Silvia buying advice

Worth brew grinder upgrade to "better" flat or conical?
Please note when aligning a stepped grinder that has any movement in the upper carrier, the detent pin will push up on one side of the burr carrier and make the burrs appear more misaligned than they are. You need to push down on the hopper when aligning the burrs to account for some of the axial pl...

Is this old Mazzer Super Jolly 110v or 220v??

Is this old Mazzer Super Jolly 110v or 220v??
that's the correct capacitor for 110v grinders. Going back to the original issue... Is the grinder stalling or are beans just not feeding into the burrs?
