Overview
The Rocket Fausto is a handsome grinder that matches the Italian design aesthetic of Rocket espresso machines. Featuring 65mm flat burrs and a powerful motor, it delivers solid espresso grinding in a visually striking package. The Fausto shares Rocket commitment to premium materials and design, with polished stainless steel accents and elegant proportions. The stepless adjustment and electronic timer provide practical control for daily espresso making. While newer single-dose designs have shifted market preferences, the Fausto remains an attractive option for those who want a traditional hopper grinder that looks stunning next to their Rocket espresso machine.
The Rocket Fausto features a 65mm flat burr set, crafted from steel. The burrs spin at 1400 RPM, offering fast grinding for high-volume use. Grind retention is approximately 1.5g, typical for a hopper-fed workflow.
At $620, the Rocket Fausto is aimed at dedicated prosumers who demand top-tier grind consistency. Key workflow features include stepless grind adjustment for infinite precision. The flat burr design produces a more uniform particle distribution, prized for clarity and sweetness in the cup.
The Rocket Fausto is weighing 9.2 kg, manufactured in Italy, powered by a 350W motor. Its footprint measures 180 x 280 x 490 mm (W×D×H).
