Rocket Espresso's refreshing take on home espresso just got a new look with the Appartamento Nera! Their much-loved compact machine gets a cutting-edge black powder coat case while maintaining its adorably outsized controls and side panel cutouts in copper or white finishes. Inside, you still get the Appartamento's 1.8-liter copper heat-exchange boiler for brewing and steaming coupled to a heated E61 group for boiler-to-spout temperature consistency. The Nera also includes quality of life features like sprung valves, an electronic water sensor, and an insulated steam wand; making it one of the best compact home espresso machines on the market. Features: Black Powder Coat: The Nera's case is finished in resilient black powder coat. Heat Exchanger: The 1.8-liter HX boiler allows for simultaneous brewing and steaming. E61 Group: Boiler-heated and backflushable, E61 groups offer reliable operation and more consistent brew temperature.
