Classika PID
ECM · £1,219
Worth being NRY provisional
A single boiler with PID temperature control in a stainless steel body that is ready in eleven minutes, which is the number that matters on a weekday morning. PID is the thing the Rancilio Silvia lacks and the reason you stop guessing at brew temperature. At £1,259 it is the cheapest machine here that removes a variable rather than adding a feature.

Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
