    Hi rudebutt1,

    You are describing two dramatically different machines here.

    The Silvia is a dual purpose single boiler machine - like your machine and the Bezzera is an example of a heat exchanger espresso machine- where you can pull a shot and texture milk simultaneously . A little googling will provide you with further explanation if required...

    regards

    Chris

      Rudebutt1,

      The may differences are as follow
      Rancilio Silvia
      Single Boiler (300ml)
      Coffee first – change to Steam
      Water tank 3 lt ( not automatic cutout)
      Fill boiler manually

      Bezzera BZ99’S
      Heat Exchange (1.5)
      Can make coffee and Steam at the same time
      Water tank 4 Lt (Automatic cutout when water level is to low)
      Automatic refill for the Boiler level
      Two handles (single and double)

      Feel free to cantact m,e directly fro more information

        ok , thanks for that.
        i think what confused me is the boiler ... many sites describe the bezzera + silvia as having different size boilers , didnt realize that a HX is a boiler with 2 elements etc ...

          ink what confused me is the boiler ... many sites describe the bezzera + silvia as having different size boilers , didnt realize that a HX is a boiler with 2 elements etc ...
          hx machines can have 1, 2, or more elements the bz has 1

          this diagram shows a breakdown of a hx boiler with a e61 group
