Features and performance
We at Barista Espresso love to with Rocket Cronometro R you can now connect directly to a water source. The advantage of direct connection is that you never have to worry about filling the internal water tank and risk running the machine empty without water which can damage the internal components. The second advantage is that through direct connection you can install a simple and good water filtration system such as BWT which we recommend, where it filters out all harmful particles and you no longer need to descale the machine when you have such appropriate water filtration. Rocket is one of the first espresso machine manufacturers to include PID temperature control in its heat exchanger espresso machines. PID means that the tolerance on temperature stability is only ± 1 degree.
The PID control is hidden behind the drip tray so as not to ruin the beautiful design of the espresso machine and can be adjusted based on four different settings that are adapted to four different roast types. Rocket is also one of the few manufacturers that has modernized and improved its E61 groups. The E61 group's function is to circulate hot water from the heating system to the brewing group to maintain a stable temperature.
What Rocket has done is to integrate a "dual" pre-infusion system in its Cronometro R which means that it has a so-called "static" pre-infusion chamber that lets through and saturates the coffee puck which is also integrated with a mechanical part with a pressure spring and piston that gradually lets through the pressure to provide a smooth and stable brewing to give the good aroma and the thick crema. Together with its well-thought-out E61 group and PID temperature control, the Cronometro R can deliver extremely precision espresso shots and dominates in its price range in the market.
Internally, the Cronometro R has a 1.8 liter heating element with a power of 1200 watts that has integrated level gauges that remind you when it's time to refill. About you have not chosen to connect the espresso machine directly and for safety reasons the machine switches off About it notices that the water level is far too low. The Rockets Cronometro R also has height-adjustable legs and a “no-burn” steam wand.
One of the reasons we love Rocket espresso machines are their accessories. They always include a complete training guide with a USB stick with extra content to help you get started with your espresso machine. They also include high quality all metal tamper which not many other manufacturers do.
