Rocket Giotto FAST R and V – Heat Exchanger with Fast Heat-up
Switched on, and the first espresso is ready after just 12 minutes – FAST technology significantly reduces heat-up time compared to a classic heat exchanger. The OLED display shows you the brewing process, and the Speed Shot Timer counts along. The Giotto FAST is available as R and V versions, in black and chrome.
Coffee Coaching Club is a partner of Rocket in Switzerland. When you purchase, our private barista course (German or English, in Bern or Zurich) is included, where we introduce you to extraction and the espresso ritual.
