I love mine. Temperature is an issue, sure, but I preheat it just by running water through it slowly with the handles slightly up. I've never immersed the whole portafilter in hot water but that's a good idea. I generally use between 13 and 14.5 g of grounds. When I'm about to pull the shot, I fill the cylinder about 3/4 full, lift the handles and then slowly pull down till I meet resistance. I lift up and pull down again till the same spot. Finally I lift up and pull down all the way to extract the shot. I pull over a scale and target a 55–60% extraction. When I didn't know any better and used World Market coffee I had around, I made what I thought at the time was the best coffee I'd ever made. It was true until I got into single origins (anything Ethiopian as espresso is amazing). My friend with a Silvia was impressed.
Definitely get a tamper (49 mm). I got this one. I also got a naked portafilter that's been helping/bewildering/saddening me.
You might also consider a knock box like this for knocking the pucks into. Finally, if you want to get into milk steaming, get yourself one of these.
