Owning the ROK EspressoGC
For the traveler and the artisan, ROK presents an updated version of their innovative and intuitive manual espresso maker. With nearly 20 years in the espresso game, ROK has broken through the common mold of noisey and complex espresso machines that take up counter space with their light, simple, and effective designs. With their original ROK Espresso making GQ Magazine’s curated list of “Best Stuff” in 2012, the company has decided to improve their long lasting, stainless steel manual espresso maker by upgrading its internal components to ensure consistency and high quality.
The team over at ROK has specially re-designed the pressure chamber with BPA-free glass composites to increase insulation and keep your espresso at a higher temperature. Its new engineering upgrades the GC to perform even better than its predecessor, but still keeps the original’s sleek aesthetic and simple design intact. Simply add hot water into the chamber, place coffee into your portafilter, lock it in, and squeeze down on EspressoGC’s arms produces a clean, crema-rich extraction that can rival any barista in town, no wires required.
The ROK EspressoGC comes with single spout portafilter, a detachable plastic double spout attachment, and a measuring scoop/tamper for your coffee.
Great question! Yes, it's a 14-gram basket so it can brew a double espresso.
