Simply put, the Rocket Appartamento is a compact espresso machine designed for environments where space is at a premium. It is a premium coffee machine with pressurestat, vibrating pump coffee machine made in Milan Italy. Rocket engineers optimised the chassis and layout of the internal components without compromising on the quality and features you expect from Rocket Espresso. We figured you would want to know a little more about the Rocket Espresso Giotto so here we go...
The Rocket Appartamento is based on the early model Giotto has become an iconic home espresso machine since the 1990's where Ennio Berti had a strong belief that the world is ready for a coffee revolution. The main difference being the Appartamento is smaller and uses slightly simpler technology, such as a pressure stat rather than a PID.
One gauge instead of two, simpler body panelling, etc. So it's basically a detuned Giotto. Starting at the very end of the process, by creating the perfect espresso, the engineers work in reverse to create the ultimate espresso machine.
Purpose built with the very best in traditional craftsmanship and technical knowledge, all to reflect the commercial machine experience at home. Yet everything about it is meticulously redesigned.
Andrew and Daniele at Rocket were thinking that all machine were starting to look the same, stainless steel boxes as such. So they try and break the mould on every machine to have a uniquness and point of difference, keeping the Rocket Espresso brand traditional yet fresh. On the Rocket Appartamento they went for two different finished, cut into the side panels. On this model it was the White panel insert they went with, creating a unique and memorable machine.
Rocket coffee machines have take features directly from their commercial espresso machine range and given the Rocket heat exchange machine superior technology that is normally only found in full sized commercial espresso machines. This philosophy dates back to the Rocket Espresso history and mission which started in the 1990's where Ennio Berti had a strong belief that the world is ready for a coffee revolution.
Rocket Appartamento machines not only look and are finished beautifully, they are well thought of and designed to have a modern heart inside a traditional looking yet simple exterior. They have worked hard to keep modern technology externally to a minimum in order for the Rocket espresso machine to be at one with the barista, allowing the barista to be present in the beautiful moment that is making espresso coffee.
