Rocket Appartamento

The E61 brew group is legendary among coffee lovers. Invented by Ernesto Valente in 1961, it’s still in use today, and it’s still as revolutionary now as it was 60 years ago. This hefty 4 kg of brass handles heat like a cast iron pan: after just a few minutes of heating, it reaches its optimal temperature and enjoys unparalleled thermal inertia in concert with unbeatable temperature stability.
With the right technique, channelling is virtually nonexistent in the E61 brew group, thanks to the pre-infusion system that gradually increases the pressure in the unit.

The Rocket Appartamento is a single boiler machine with a heat exchanger system known as a thermosiphon. This system provides consistent heat with every espresso. It also offers the same benefits as a double boiler system in a smaller footprint, meaning your steam wand is always ready to go, even while you’re pulling espressos.

Rocket combines the ideas of a New Zealander and an Italian to produce machines that brew some of the best espresso in the world in every cup.
