Rocket R58 Tune

Personal caveat, I'm a Cinquantotto (v3) owner, so take my esthetic opinions as a fan of the v3, with that... (question A) general thoughts? and (question B) non-Rocket loyalists interest? I have "A" covered below with my observation that the Tune is a mixed bag of incredible with some criticisms. Q

DIY espresso machine worth it? [1100-1695 euro]

For 1510 Euro in Amsterdam you can buy a brand new Rocket Apartamento TCA. For another 600 you can have a Rocket Mozafiatto Fast. No they don't have extra smarts considering how many joules it'll take to be ready for the next shot... that's a side quest from actually making a great shot of espresso,

Looking for a first home espresso setup [$4500]

The Rocket TCA and Profitec Pro 500 are both heat exchanger machines. If you’re not making milk drinks often or at all you’re probably better off with a single boiler. The Profitec Go is a solid option in that category and under your budget. If you’re specifically looking for an E61 machine, the ECM

New setup!

I didn’t try the new grinder with my old machine, but originally my plan was the same as yours—upgrade the grinder first, not both at once.To be completely honest, I got my bonus and decided to be a bit financially irresponsible 😅 That said, I’m about 90% sure the flavor improvement comes from the g

To new Appartamento TCA owners (critical review)

We bought our TCA 6 months ago. It does take a while to warm up but that’s not the problem for us since I have it plugged into a programmed smart plug. It’s the water sensor thats ruined our purchase. We use soft water and have filters that add minerals to the water yet the sensor still doesn’t dete

Help me convince my husband to get a Gaggia

Honestly, if you're not a huge coffee snob, I'd try to forget about the Linea Mini for now. My Breville Barista Pro with a built-in grinder died last fall. I really wanted to get a Rocket Appartamento TCA (roughly a $2,000) but with a kid in daycare I couldn't justify the splurge, considering I also
