Rocket Appartamento TCA Drip Grate – Original Spare Part

Rocket Appartamento TCA Drip Grate – Original Spare Part

A rectangular grate in stainless steel, neatly punched holes in even rows, a cutout for the portafilter – the drip grate sits exactly where the counter meets the machine. You rest your hand on it without thinking twice, and that is exactly its job.

Coffee contains over 800 compounds, some of which settle as a fine film on the grate over time. Deposits and scratches can eventually wear down the smooth surface. The original grate from Rocket Espresso fits precisely into the cutout of the Appartamento TCA's drip tray and lifts out with one motion for cleaning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the drip tray included?

No, this is the grate only. We carry the matching drip tray, with and without grate, separately.

How do I know the grate needs replacing?

Stubborn discolouration, scratches, or a grate that no longer sits cleanly are the clearest signs.

Can I replace it myself?

Yes, the grate lifts out of the drip tray and back in without any tools.

Can I see the product before buying?

Yes, in our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zürich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b) you can experience the original spare part in person.
