Appartamento

Sharing an observation as a long-time Rocket Appartamento owner who upgraded. First of all, I wouldn’t say that flow control is necessary (and the massive amount of people regarding the Linea Mini as end-game seem to agree). In fact, if one is only starting their journey into espresso I would say th

Id get a rocket appartamento or a lelit Bianca before a LM micra or mini, something with flow control and pressure control but is also significantly cheaper.

Rocket appartamento is one the better home espresso machines for under $2k, ordered online delivered to door. For people that aren't handy or have no desire to attempt repairs, it's not unusual to find them in this state. Pretty sure I've seen people on here post finding them cheap at a goodwill eve

My ex bought a Rocket Appartamento when we were together and we stopped going to cafes (covid lockdown). While it was an expensive machine, it paid for itself in no time (extra large latte with oatmilk + flat white add up fast). I've had no machine since July but have had my eye on the Breville Bamb

I was in the same boat, but had some size constraints so I ended up going heat exchanger (Rocket Appartamento) instead. I had the same criteria as you though, and I was aiming for the Profitec Move @ $3K CAD. If your budget is $6K.. just go La Marzocco Micra. It's a BIFL machine for sure, and pretty

There really isn't a big market for cafe tier machines, so I'm not surprised the price is that low. There's good reason most consumers don't want these machines - they index high in features that consumers don't need (massive output capacity) and often index low in features consumers benefit from (s

I got my first machine (a rocket appartamento) about 10 years ago and I believe I’ve pulled so many shots over the years that it has more than paid for itself. I ordered a LM Micra last week and I’m excited for it. I wanted a Mini R but it’s a bit too deep and wide for my space. That said, I was swe

I bought my partner a $2000 Rocket Appartamento for his birthday back in 2020 when everything was closed. I did the math and it has paid for itself twice over by now. He drinks a LOT of espresso. And he enjoys it as a hobby! Plus it was a bit of a selfish gift since I benefit from it. He is making m

As an owner of both a rocket appartamento and a stone, the stone definitely feels like a better machine, albeit just not quite as premium of a build (mostly because of that clunky drip tray) It acts much more like a dual boiler than a hx with that actively heated group head. No flushing required. So

I don't know about mozzafiato but i'm happy with my rocket appartamento tca, but honestly if you are not using steam wand, single boiler machine is much better and cheaper.
