You don't need to plumb in a Silvia :)
This was a few years ago but I was lucky, the guy had really looked after it and put a LOT of effort into packaging it up well and making sure it got to me in one piece. He even wrote a welcome note type thing. Sweet.
Seriously though I haven't used that particular frother, it's probably better than the one I used.
We can certainly agree that the frothed milk at most chain coffee shops is fecking awful.

What that little frother makes is better than the local chains come up with most of the time, and like I said, it's used once a week or so (by my wife, I drink moka at home and espresso at my local).
$430 seems really cheap for a Silvia, well done - obviously not stupid for someone like you, but would be for me since I prefer my well-practised moka to having to plumb in a machine, learn home espresso, deal with water issues and keep the maker clean, not to mention there'd be nowhere to put it in our tiny kitchen!
