Features
Rocket Espresso has a fundamental culture of building excellent machinery using the best available components, top grade materials, and thoughtful no-nonsense design engineering. They have mastered this philosophy and easily recognize it in other manufacturers. One such manufacturer is the coffee grinder maker Mazzer, and Rocker Espresso has teamed with Mazzer to co-brand a line of Rocket Espresso-Mazzer grinders to complement the Rocket Espresso line of semi-automatic espresso machines. This new line has polished bright finishes and the famous Rocket Espresso badge, but all of the components are Mazzer through and through.
The Rocket Espresso-Mazzer Mini Type B Doser-Grinder is especially formatted for the Barista grinding single or double doses directly into a portafilter for brewing espresso. When you set a portafilter into the rest it will engage the grinder when you give it a slight bump and deliver a pre-set single or double dose of coffee grinds. A single bump delivers one dose – a double bump delivers a double dose. This allows you to single handedly load your portafilter. The dose size pre-sets are adjustable by turning the appropriate dosing dial behind the portafilter rest with a small screw driver. Of course you can manually override the dosing presets to grind coffee for drip or French-press brewing, or to experiment with different dose sizes. With its infinite adjustment lever it has the capability to grind to any specification from fine espresso to drip to coarse French-press coffees.
The Rocket Espresso-Mazzer Mini Type B Doser-Grinder is very quiet due to its direct drive system. With a super strong 250 watt motor it will not bog down under a heavy load and will last a lifetime. The large 64mm burrs are made of 100% Swedish hardened steel and are known as the best in the industry. They are easy to access for cleaning and better yet, very easy to recalibrate after cleaning. The bean hopper can be removed with the beans still in it, allowing you to easily swap beans. It weighs 22 pounds, is incredibly well engineered, and is the type of equipment you would be proud to have in your home or business, and its finish and nameplate complement Rocket Espresso machines.
Features:
Top Quality Grinding burrs
Mazzer manufactures their own burrs out of Swedish tempered ball bearing steel instead of the softer, less durable case hardened steel found in other grinders. These burrs are perfectly parallel with a minimal .03mm tolerance and measure 64mm in diameter. Due to their hefty size they can grind large quantities of coffee quicker while imparting very little heat to the freshly ground coffee.
Heavy Duty Motor
The Rocket Espresso-Mazzer Mini Type B was designed to handle a commercial load but due to its fine craftsmanship and elegant finishes it has found its way into the home. The motor draws 250 watts and is a direct drive style that operates at 1600 RPM. It is so quiet that when operating without beans you can barely hear the motor. As a safety feature the Rocket Espresso-Mazzer Mini Type B has an overload switch that turns the machine off to prevent any damage due to foreign objects getting stuck in the burrs.
Infinite Grind Settings
The Rocket Espresso-Mazzer Mini Type B can grind from super fine espresso to very coarse French-press. With the infinite grind setting adjustments you can adjust the grind as little or as much as you want with ease.
Unique Hopper Design
The 4” tall bean hopper can hold up to 1.3 lb of beans, and features a compact design for a better fit under kitchen cabinets and it can be removed while the beans are still in it to make it easy to swap them out.
Easy Access to Burrs for Cleaning
Accessing the burrs for cleaning is very easy as the whole adjustment lever & upper burr assembly can be un-screwed from the machine by hand exposing the burr chamber and lower burr for cleaning and inspection.
Heavy Duty Construction
The frame and body is made from a one-piece heavy die cast aluminum. This ensures long lasting durability for the finish and cuts down on what little noise the motor does make.
