Product Overview
The Rocket Espresso Giotto FAST R is a premium home espresso machine that combines Rocket Espresso's distinctive Italian design with rapid heat-up technology, an E61 group head, a heat exchanger boiler, PID temperature control, and a commercial rotary pump.
Designed for home baristas who want a flexible and efficient espresso workflow, the Giotto FAST R features an actively heated E61 group head, integrated digital shot timer, and convertible water supply. It can be used with its internal reservoir or connected to a compatible direct water line.
FAST Rapid Heat-Up Technology
The Giotto FAST R features an integrated heating element within the E61 group head. This active heating system is designed to accelerate the warm-up process and help the machine reach brewing temperature more quickly than a conventional E61 configuration.
Once the group reaches the desired operating temperature, the heating element can disengage while the thermosiphon system continues to circulate heated water through the group.
E61 Group Head & Heat Exchanger Boiler
The commercial brass E61 group head works with the machine's 1.8-liter heat exchanger boiler. The heat exchanger design allows users to brew espresso and produce steam simultaneously.
- Group Head: E61 brass group with integrated rapid heating element
- Boiler Type: Heat exchanger
- Boiler Capacity: 1.8 L
- Brewing and Steaming: Simultaneous operation
Commercial Rotary Pump
The Giotto FAST R uses a commercial-grade rotary pump designed for smooth and consistent water delivery during espresso extraction. The rotary pump configuration also provides quieter operation compared with typical vibration pump systems.
Convertible Water Supply
The R configuration provides flexible water supply options. The machine can operate using its integrated 2.9-liter water reservoir for standalone countertop use or be connected to a compatible water line using the included plumbing kit.
PID Temperature Control
An integrated electronic PID controller provides temperature management for the heat exchanger boiler. Users can adjust the available temperature settings to accommodate different espresso brewing preferences.
Integrated Digital Shot Timer
The front-mounted digital shot timer tracks extraction time during brewing. Monitoring shot duration can help users maintain consistency when preparing espresso using repeatable recipes.
Cool-Touch Steam & Hot Water Wands
The Giotto FAST R includes insulated stainless steel steam and hot water wands designed to reduce surface temperatures during use. The wands provide steam for milk preparation and hot water for compatible beverage applications.
Energy-Saving Eco Mode
The machine includes a programmable Eco mode designed to reduce power consumption during periods of inactivity. Users can configure the available standby settings according to their preferred usage schedule.
Italian Stainless Steel Construction
The Giotto FAST R features Rocket Espresso's signature angular chassis with three-dimensional beveled side panels. Its polished stainless steel construction and compact countertop design provide a distinctive appearance for home coffee stations.
