Rocket Espresso Faustino | Espresso Grinder | 50mm Burrs | 1650 RPMs
Rocket Espresso Faustino Grinder
The Rocket Espresso Faustino is a compact and stylish grinder designed for easy use. Despite its small size, it delivers the high-quality performance that espresso demands. The standout feature of the Faustino is its stepless micrometric adjustments, allowing for virtually infinite grind settings. The machine's 50mm steel burrs are adjusted using a micrometric knob, which moves only the bottom burr when changing the grind setting, eliminating the need for readjustment after cleaning. With anti-vibration technology, the Faustino operates quietly and has a screwless top burr design for reduced retention.
The Faustino is a smaller version of Rocket Espresso's Macinatore Fausto grinder, with a sleek design that matches Rocket Espresso machines. The dosing funnel has been redesigned, and the micrometric adjustment knob moved to the back top right corner of the machine for improved functionality. The hopper can hold up to 1.5 pounds of beans, and a small touchscreen display allows for single, double, or triple dosing, as well as manual dosing. The display is easy to read and features a clean design, and the machine also includes a continuous grind button for manual grinding. Overall, the Rocket Espresso Faustino offers simplicity and quality in a compact package.
Rocket Espresso Faustino Features
Why Customers Love The Faustino
Quiet: "The Rocket Espresso Faustino makes a great companion to my Rocket Appartmento. After finding the perfect grind for my beans, the grinder operates quietly and without any issues. When switching to a new type of beans, it's necessary to adjust the timer and grind size accordingly, and it's helpful to keep track of these adjustments. The chute is designed to direct grounds straight into the portafilter, leaving no mess. I've experienced other grinders that scatter grounds around when in use, but the Faustino avoids this issue. Additionally, the settings and operation of the grinder are straightforward and easy to understand."
Low Grind Retention: "I am thoroughly impressed with this grinder; it has exceeded my expectations. Despite its affordable price, it competes with higher-priced espresso grinders in terms of quality. The grind is consistently uniform, and the hopper can hold a generous amount of coffee to maintain freshness. Additionally, the grinder has low retention and is effortless to adjust. I absolutely love it and would highly recommend it to anyone."
