Rocket Faustino Bean Hopper Complete – Original Spare Part
A quiet slide, then the last bean sits ready above the burrs – with the Faustino, every espresso starts with this simple moment: drop the hopper on, fill it with beans, go.
The Faustino's bean hopper is built compact, matching the grinder's small footprint, and feeds beans evenly to the 50mm steel burrs. If it no longer sits cleanly or shows cracks, that quietly changes how much air and light reach the beans before they're even ground.
Why a cleanly seated hopper makes a difference
A coffee bean holds over 800 compounds, many of them volatile – and sensitive to oxygen. A hopper that no longer seals properly speeds up exactly this ageing process, before the bean even reaches the Faustino's burrs. The original replacement brings the grinder back to its original, sealed condition.

Frequently asked questions
Does this hopper also fit the Faustino V2?
No, the Faustino V2 has its own, newly designed bean hopper with a volume of around 320 g – a different part from this one. If you're not sure which model you have, we're happy to help you check.
How do I know the hopper needs replacing?
Visible cracks, a hopper that no longer sits firmly on the grinder, or a lid that no longer closes cleanly are the clearest signs.
Can I do the swap myself?
Yes, the hopper lifts off without any tools, and the new one drops straight on.
Can I see the product before I buy it?
Yes, in our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zürich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b) you can see the original spare part in person.
Roastery tip
A freshly sealing bean hopper preserves what the roast gives it. Our main recommendation: Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, dense, aromatic, full-bodied. For maximum body with virtually no acidity: Very Nutty. For anyone wanting to discover a fruity experience: Wild Peach, lively and always a discovery. Our recommendation from the roastery, one of many.
