Rocket rubber feet for the Faustino – so the grinder stays put again
A grinder that wanders across the worktop while grinding is rarely faulty. Usually the four rubber feet are simply worn flat. Over the years they harden, lose their grip and pass the vibration straight on to the worktop – a brief whirr turns into a drone the whole kitchen can hear.
With four fresh feet, the Faustino stays right where you put it again. You can hear the difference the first time you grind.
When they are due
When the grinder wanders or wobbles while grinding. When the rubber is glassy, cracked or visibly compressed. When they leave dark marks on the worktop. And always as a set – a single new foot makes the grinder stand crooked.

Who they are for
For anyone with a Faustino that has become louder than it used to be. And for anyone who has placed their grinder on a smooth stone or glass worktop – every tired foot shows up immediately there.
What goes with it
If you're turning the grinder upside down anyway, it's worth taking a look at the 50 mm burrs and the rubber sleeves for the portafilter holder screws. For cleaning the grinding chamber, we carry the cleaning range for machine and grinder. Everything else under Rocket accessories and spare parts.
Tip from our café
We wipe the contact surface with alcohol before fitting. Coffee oil is the real reason rubber feet slip – they're not always hard, they're greasy. This is our workshop routine from Bern and Zurich, not a manufacturer specification. For dialling in afterwards we use Nutty Delight, Cozy Chocolate for chocolatey notes and Very Nutty for maximum body. All roasts under Coffee beans.
Returns excluded
Service parts are excluded from exchange and return. They are sourced specifically for each order and cannot be resold after installation or a test fit on the appliance. So before ordering, check the model, year of manufacture and serial number of your machine – or drop us a quick message and we'll clarify the fit together. Your rights in the case of defective goods remain unaffected.
Frequently asked questions
Are there really four feet included?
Yes, the set contains four pieces – one complete set for one grinder.
Do they also fit the Faustino V2?
The series differ in the base of the housing. Drop us a quick message telling us which generation you have, and we'll check it using the serial number.
How are they attached?
Depending on the version, they are push-fit or screwed on. The old feet can be pulled off with a little patience; you fit the new ones cold and dry.
My grinder still drones. What's causing that?
Then it's usually standing on a worktop that vibrates along with it. A thin cork mat under the grinder takes care of the rest.
Can I see the part in the showroom?
Our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zurich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b) show a wide selection, but not our entire range – the display changes. Drop us a quick line at [email protected] before your visit, and we will check whether the product you have in mind is currently there.
