This is my Rancilio Silvia espresso machine with custom PID temperature control software running on a pic 16F876. The control interface uses an NES controller and 20 character VFD. All the front switches still work, but the NES controller adds a little magic! The controller is actually useful for tuning the PID gain settings and other features.
