Rocket Fausto Rubber Seal Ring for Bean Hopper – Original Spare Part
Between the Fausto's bean hopper and burrs sits a slim rubber ring, invisible once the hopper is in place – its only job: keeping the connection tight and dust-free, day after day.
Only once the hopper starts to wobble, or fine bean dust escapes at the join, do you notice how much work this small ring does out of sight.
A ring that gives way over time
Rubber seals lose elasticity over time – through repeated removal and refitting of the hopper as much as through temperature swings in the kitchen or café. A seal ring that has become porous or cracked no longer holds the hopper cleanly in place, which shows up as slight play when filling.
Rocket Espresso's original seal ring is made exactly for the Fausto's bean hopper and restores the firm, clean fit.

The Roastery Tip
A bean hopper that sits firmly again deserves beans with substance too. Our main recommendation: Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, dense, aromatic, full-bodied. For maximum body with no acidity at all: 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.
