I just hate the 57 mm crap. The Anna PID would be perfect but it's 57 mm. Glenda is an Anna with 58 mm but it only comes with either PID or pressure gauge. Grace is a Victoria with slightly smaller boiler and 57 mm again. So you end up having to get the Victoria for 200 bucks more than the Grace and double the Anna just for PID, press gauge and 58 mm...

@@221b-l3t I fully agree with you and came to the same conclusion. I would be happy with the Anna if it had standard portafilter. I guess it's one of the ways to ensure you buy the more expensive model if you really need all the "standard" stuff

How do one burn out the heating element? Is it when switching between shots and steam? I have a GC today and will soon upgrade to pl81t or this model... from what I see it is only the width of the portafilter differs between them both... am I wrong?
@DuBstep115Ай бұрын
@@AzizIzgin Because when you steam your pump doesn't work, otherwise it would cool down the boiler, so you empty your boiler while you steam. Thats why its important to run water from steam nozzle after steaming. But not in victoria.

I just bought the Victoria PL91T. Unfortunately, the vibrations are so strong that it makes the brewing process difficult since cups just move on the machine grid. I contacted Lelit and this was their answer: “in the PL91T model the metal tray and the wire grid do not absorb the vibration of the pump, but transmit it and this can cause the displacement of the cups during the brewing process, especially in case of less heavy cups.” Well, stay away from PL91T and Lelit in general.

@portwill3 жыл бұрын
If you are OK with temp surfing and the way too hot steam you should be good with the Silvia. I personally would hate to do the milk first and then have a rather slow routine with temp surfing to have consistency. To each their own but I am leaning towards saving up some more money and not worry about temperature or pressure and just enjoy the damn thing.

Hi Stefanus, I'm considering this as upgrade from my 1st generation Breville Infuser which has PID but it's not settable as us the 2nd generation Infuser. As you know the Infuser uses a thermalblock so cannot pull and steam simultaneously which I don't care cause I don't make many milk drinks just Americano. Would you consider the Lelit Victoria an upgrade from the Infuser?
@StefanusGoana4 жыл бұрын
Hi yes thermoblock technology is good as it able to heat up really fast however temperature stability is the issue. Victoria is using a 300ml brass boiler which able to help you with much better temperature stability. Also much powerful steam pressure to progress on your latte art skill.
