Description

The Rocket Appartamento TCA is the latest evolution of the iconic Appartamento espresso machine, with a modern aesthetic and new features that take the Appartamento up a gear. The machine functions and improvements deliver an even better coffee experience in the home, raising the benchmark for performance in this category of premium domestic espresso machines.

The Appartamento TCA boasts several features that make it stand out from previous models. These include a heat exchanger system that allows you to brew espresso and steam milk simultaneously, a wider drip tray that provides more space for your cups and glasses, and a new porta filter that ensures a consistent extraction and a perfect crema every time. The machine also has a 1.8-liter boiler capacity, which is larger than many other premium domestic espresso machines, and a tank reserve sensor that alerts you when the water level is low.

The Appartamento TCA also features a new design that is both stylish and functional. The round contours give a whole new aesthetic to this perspective of the machine, with smooth curves that draw the eye in. The distinctive circles on the machine sides have been accentuated with a debossing treatment, giving them a three-dimensional quality. There's even a small "Easter egg" tucked away in the cup warmer area. The brewing group has a dynamic, purposeful shape, with a distinctive look that conveys strength, reliability, and precision.

The Appartamento TCA also features new technology that guarantees an outstanding cup of coffee. The stand-by function saves energy by automatically turning off the machine after 30 minutes of inactivity. The boiler pressure adjustment allows you to customize the pressure to your liking, so you can achieve the perfect extraction for your favorite coffee beans. These developments in electronics have allowed Rocket to introduce a new series of features and functions that make the Appartamento TCA a top-of-the-line domestic espresso machine.

In conclusion, the Rocket Appartamento TCA is a high-quality domestic espresso machine that delivers exceptional performance and a premium coffee experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

How easy is it to switch between preset temperatures and adjust pressure?

To switch between the four temperature settings (Low, Medium, High, Very High), the Appartamento TCA uses a unique lever-based programming system:

Enter Programming Mode: With the machine OFF, lift the E61 brew lever all the way up, then flip the power switch ON while holding the lever raised
Select Temperature: Each time you raise and lower the brew lever in programming mode, the red LED indicator light will flash to show your current temperature setting:

1 flash = Low (0.9 bar boiler pressure)
2 flashes = Medium (1.0 bar boiler pressure)
3 flashes = High (1.1 bar boiler pressure)
4 flashes = Very High (1.2 bar boiler pressure)

Save Setting: Once you've selected your desired temperature, hold the brew lever down for a few seconds to save the setting. The LED will change to a steady white glow, confirming the machine is back in normal operation

The LED light communicates through flashes and colors. Once set, most users find the Medium setting (200°F/93°C extraction temperature) ideal for everyday use and rarely need to change it.

What cleaning and maintenance routines are recommended for the TCA, especially with the new features?

The Appartamento TCA requires regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance and longevity:

Daily: Empty and rinse the drip tray, wipe down the steam wand after each use, and perform a water flush through the group head before brewing
Weekly or Biweekly: Backflush with espresso machine cleaning powder to remove coffee oil buildup from the E61 group head
Monthly: Deep clean the steam wand tip and portafilter baskets; inspect and clean the shower screen
Every 2-3 months: Descale the boiler based on your water hardness.
Every 6 months: Replace the group head gasket if needed and check all seals

The TCA's coated copper boiler has improved resistance to tarnishing, and the energy-saving insulation helps maintain optimal performance. The automatic standby mode (after 30 minutes of inactivity) also helps preserve the machine's components.

How does the TCA compare in size and noise level to Appartamento models?

The Appartamento TCA maintains similar compact dimensions to Appartamento models, making it ideal for home countertops. The machine measures approximately 27cm (W) x 40cm (D) x 36cm (H), fitting comfortably in most spaces.

Regarding noise levels, the TCA uses a vibratory pump (like Appartamento models), so operating noise is comparable to earlier versions. While not silent, it's reasonable for home use. The machine is quieter during brewing than during the initial heat-up phase and steam generation.

The TCA's updated one-piece frame construction makes it more rigid and stable, which can actually help reduce vibration noise compared to the original Appartamento where the drip tray was welded separately.

Are any accessories or starter kits included with the TCA, such as tampers or milk pitchers?

The Rocket Appartamento TCA comes with essential accessories to get you started:

Included with the machine:

Two portafilters (single and double spout)
Filter baskets for single and double shots
Backflush blank basket for cleaning
Water softening filter
User manual and setup guide

Recommended additions for the complete setup:

Quality tamper (58mm diameter to match the E61 portafilter)
Frothing/milk pitcher (12-20oz depending on your drink size preferences)
Cleaning supplies (backflushing detergent, descaling solution, group head brush)
Precision scale for measuring coffee doses
