Rocket Braided Hose 1/8" 1.6 m for Direct Water Connection – Original Spare Part
Usually invisible, routed behind or beneath the machine, the braided hose connects the plumbed-in Rocket to the water line – a sturdy link that quietly does its job out of sight, day after day.
Anyone who chooses a direct water connection instead of a water tank gains independence from manual refilling – provided the supply hose itself stays tight and intact.
Why a braided hose is more than a simple hose
Water makes up over 90 percent of espresso, and before it even reaches the boiler, it needs to flow reliably and without leaks from the line to the machine. A braided hose is wrapped in a flexible metal mesh that withstands pressure fluctuations and mechanical stress – noticeably more robust than a simple plastic hose. After years of continuous use, the seals at the connections can still wear down.
The original Rocket Espresso braided hose measures 1.6 meters with a 1/8-inch connection and fits Rocket models with a direct water connection.

The roastery tip
Reliable water in the background deserves beans with substance in the foreground too. Our main recommendation: Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, dense, aromatic, full-bodied. For maximum body without any acidity: Very Nutty. For anyone looking to discover a fruity experience: Wild Peach, lively and always a discovery. Our recommendation from the roastery – one of many.
