Have a silvia, I have her PID'd updated the steam wand to V3, added leds to her. Makes very good espresso's. Been searching around. Has anyone attempted or contemplated putting a Clever on a Silvia. I am thinking of doing this to her. On a sidenote I also have 2 commercial machines, I take care of, we bought for work. An Acorto 2000s and an Acorto 1500 s Elite. Nice machines.

NOW I understand what you are saying. I am not aware of anyone doing this and I really do not remember anyone posting about it. If you feel the need to do this, take a lot of pics while modding your machine and make a thread on it so that perhaps someone in the future can see what and how you did it!

Now why would you ask a question like that....LoL Answer...Because we can. Thats why we mod. I mean if you have 10 grand you can go get a Kees Van der Westen Speedster, and not have to mod. But I don't have 10 grand in disposable income for that. a hundred bucks..why not. When I do it I will post. Thanks. Here is a pic of my "coffee bar".
